Well it looks like President Donald Trump maintained his “no scalps policy” by rearranging the decks, demoting Mike Waltz from national security advisor to United Nations ambassador, and consolidating the role under Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

If you are a subscriber of The Red Letter, you would have learned weeks ago that Waltz was on the way out from my interview with Laura Loomer, a conspiracy theorist but who revealed what Trump really thinks about Waltz post Signalgate …

"I don't really feel like Mike Waltz has much credibility these days," Loomer said, explaining how she was able to overrule the national security advisor in the Oval Office and recommend the firing of six members of the National Security Council. It’s a must-listen-to interview, now on The Tara Palmeri Show, which you can find on iTunes, Spotify, iHeart, and Amazon Music. And of course, you can watch it here.

Loomer, a far-right conspiracy theorist who has a side door into the Oval Office, suggested at the time that Pete Hegseth had a higher status in Trump’s mind than Waltz, but we’ll see how long that lasts. Maybe he’ll be shipped off to Cyprus. I see the ambassadorship is still open and it does have beautiful beaches …

She also revealed why she really went to Washington last month: to show Trump a damaging video of Waltz from 2016 that would put the final nail in the coffin of his tenure. (Waltz says in the ad, paid for by the Koch brothers, that he “can’t stomach” Trump’s slamming John McCain as a loser for being captured in war.) Loomer knows how to pull on the president’s heartstrings by exposing who should not be trusted and naming names.

Although, this Reuters photo of Waltz on Signal during the Cabinet meeting today probably didn’t help either …

Loomer spills all of the tea on the White House infighting, dispelling the notion that they’re “one big happy family.”

But in all seriousness, between the upheaval at the Pentagon and the fact that 20 people were fired from the National Security Council, this obviously leaves our national security in a compromising position.

“Some elements of the government are low on relevant national security expertise and in some cases it has proven difficult to attract high-level talent,” Reuters wrote, sourcing an unnamed official.

Can Rubio really be both secretary of state and head of the National Security Council, a role that actually
