Several senior staff members of the National Security Council, including Brian Walsh, Thomas Boodry, and David Feith, have been dismissed following a meeting between President Donald Trump and far-right activist Laura Loomer. Loomer, who attended the meeting with Vice President JD Vance and national security adviser Mike Waltz, presented opposition research on NSC staff, influencing the decision to remove them. Despite national security adviser Mike Waltz defending the staff, the situation remains fluid, with potential additional firings as the administration reassesses its personnel.
