In what amounts to a long-overdue in-house cleaning, administration officials have confirmed that 70 positions at the National Security Council (NSC) held by Obama-era staffers are being cut.

Last week, U.S. Army Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman and his twin brother were sent packing after the former starred as a Democrat witness in the impeachment hoax.

Liberals were apoplectic over the notion that the President would dare reassign an individual who tried to sabotage American foreign policy through false claims of abuse of power surrounding a mundane phone call with the President of Ukraine.

They’ll be even further disappointed to hear he’s slashing more deep-staters.

“Officials confirmed that Trump and national security adviser Robert O’Brien have cut 70 positions inherited from former President Barack Obama,” the Washington Examiner reports.

‘Anonymous’ Resistance Leader Set to Get the Boot

Additionally, U.S. attorney and Trump lawyer, Joe diGenova told WMAL’s ‘Mornings on the Mall’ that the individual associated with a famed anonymous op-ed in the New York Times in 2018 was also set to be eliminated.

The cowardly ‘anonymous’ author, who claims they are a “senior official in the Trump administration,” suggested they were “part of the resistance” against the President since he took office.

The author followed up with what they claimed was a ‘tell-all book’ where they again declined to reveal their identity, though they promised readers they would hear from them “in my own name” before the 2020 election.

If diGenova is right and the author is fired, that prediction may indeed come true.

“The White House has identified and will soon part ways with the ‘anonymous’ official behind a recently released book and a ‘resistance’ focused editorial published in the New York Times,” the Daily Caller reports.

Cowards

First Lady Melania Trump slammed the author saying, “you are not protecting this country, you are sabotaging it with your cowardly actions.”

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham also called the anonymous official a “coward.”

“Real authors reach out to their subjects to get things fact-checked – but this person is in hiding, making that very basic part of being a real writer impossible,” Grisham said.

Such harsh adjectives equally apply to Vindman and the other rogue NSC staffers.

Cleaning house of Obama holdovers is long, long overdue and anyone working in the administration who is not wholeheartedly supporting the President’s agenda needs to be removed.

Game over for the resistance.
