A top official of the National Security Council was fired last month after arguing in a memo that President Trump is under sustained attack from subversive forces both within and outside the government who are deploying Maoist tactics to defeat President Trumps nationalist agenda.
His dismissal marks the latest victory by National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster in the ongoing war within Trumps White House between those who believe that the president is under threat from dark forces plotting to undermine him, and those like McMaster who dismiss this as conspiratorial thinking.
Rich Higgins, a former Pentagon official who served in the NSCs strategic-planning office as a director for strategic planning, was let go on July 21. Higginss memo describes supposed domestic and international threats to Trumps presidency, including globalists, bankers, the deep state, and Islamists. The memo characterizes the Russia story as a plot to sabotage Trumps nationalist agenda. It asserts that globalists and Islamists are seeking to destroy America. The memo also includes a set of recommendations, arguing that the problem constitutes a national-security priority. Globalists and Islamists recognize that for their visions to succeed, America, both as an ideal and as a national and political identity, must be destroyed, the memo warns. It argues that this has led Islamists [to] ally with cultural Marxists, but that in the long run, Islamists will co-opt the movement in its entirety. Higgins wrote the memo in late May, and at some point afterwards it began circulating among people outside the White House associated with the Trump campaign to whom Higgins had given it.

McCain went bonkers applauding the appointment of McMaster. He should have been fired on that basis the next day.
Anybody have a copy of this memo?
Didn’t see the memo linked in the story. The article gives the info about what was in the memo.
I would love to read it. I don’t like summaries unless I’m the one summarizing. I hope it gets leaked.
So McMaster is either stupid or working for the Deep State?
Both, the globalists are using Islam to further their goals.
And the Islamists are using the globalists to further theirs.
Trump is getting surrounded by globalists and Deep Staters within his own administration.
They are getting Trump to fire the people who would advance the agenda Trump ran on, stopping the flow across the border and restoring the rule of law.
Here’s what was in the article:

In Maoist insurgencies, the formation of a counter-state is essential to seizing state power, the memo reads. Functioning as a hostile complete state acting within an existing state, it has an alternate infrastructure. Political warfare operates as one of the activities of the counter-state. I was able to review large portions of the memo, and to secure extracts for publication.
Because the left is aligned with Islamist organizations at local, national, and international levels, recognition should be given to the fact that they seamlessly interoperate through coordinated synchronized interactive narratives These attack narratives are pervasive, full spectrum, and institutionalized at all levels. They operate in social media, television, the 24-hour news cycle in all media and are entrenched at the upper levels of the bureaucracies.
Sounds like a good guy to replace Mueller
A question to everyone. If you were in Trump’s place would you feel safe? He believed that once elected the elites would come around out of fear of the voters. Didn’t happen. So he now knows they’re not afraid to do whatever they believe has to be done to stop him.
If I was Trump I’d be in survival mode for myself and my family. The swamp is way too deep. He’s probably paranoid and has every right to be. There is no one (who can help him) who can be trusted.
McMaster is an Islamist. A truly dangerous man, like Brennan was and remains.
Is there no one there who sees this crap? McMaster Rosenstein McCabe on and on it goes until Trump has been destroyed l just don’t understand it.
Yeah- he says islamists, it’s not like he’s lumping them in with moderates.
It’s not stopping the people from flowing across the border the deep state is concerned about. It’s the drugs. To quote Sonny Corleone “There’s a lot of money in that white powder.”
I now believe the Bushes, Quale, Clinton, all if them were, have been and are in the drug trade.

Sounds to me like a guy going way outside his job description and outside the chain of command.
I think neither Naval officer Bannon or Gen. Kelly will toletate that, regardless of the content.
Once again, consider the motivation of a Trump-hating rag like Atlantic trying to sow seeds of dissention among Trump supporters.
STOP FALLING FOR IT.
aint that the truth.
Who recommended McMaster for the NSC job and who convinced President Trump to nominate him?
He is a big disappointment.

It was Condi Rice among a few others from previous administrations. That was a big hint right there.
