Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 "Susan Rice operationalized the NSC during the last administration. I was put on to ensure that it was de-operationalized," Bannon said in a statement to The Wall Street Journal. "General McMaster has returned the NSC to its proper function.”

grinreaper Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/stephen-bannon-removed-from-national-security-council/ar-BBzrlrp?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=HPCOMMDHP15 This from the Washington Post. The realities don't match the headlines. Two senior White House officials said Bannon’s departure was in no way a demotion and that he had rarely attended meetings since being placed on the council. They and others interviewed for this story spoke on the condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to speak publicly on the issue. Bannon's place on the committee had been a subject of intense controversy when the move was announced in January. National security experts, including a former Obama administration official, characterized it as an elevation of a White House official with no national security experience, even while other national security officials in the administration were included on the NSC only when “issues pertaining to their responsibilities and expertise” were involved. The White House later added the director of the CIA to the NSC. The White House strongly disputed that characterization, saying that Trump chose to change the structure of the committee from the one in place during the Obama administration to reduce the number of meetings in which senior intelligence officials were required to participate if they did not pertain to their areas of expertise. Instead, one of the officials said, Bannon was put on the council early in the administration to guide and keep watch over then-national security adviser Michael Flynn, who was tasked with reshaping the operation. That official and a second official said Bannon did this from afar, attending one or two meetings of the group. Bannon was there to “de-operationalize” the NSC from its Obama-era setup, the official added, and he feels that has been accomplished with Flynn and his successor H.R. McMaster and no longer feels the need to be part of the NSC. “There was a concern when this administration came in that the national security council under the prior administration had grown too large and had taken on operational responsibilities that were not properly its role,” the second official said. Bannon was placed on the committee “to help return the NSC to its proper policy coordinating role.”
boyst Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Did folks make a thread about all the headlines of anything Obama did? I don't remember the last 8 years. I don't think they do, either.
