WASHINGTON (AP) -- A senior Trump administration official was fired following criticism in a private speech of President Donald Trump's policies and his inner circle of advisers.
Craig Deare, whom Trump appointed a month ago to head the National Security Council's Western Hemisphere division, was on Friday escorted out of the Executive Office Building, where he worked in Washington.

Would not for a moment guess this was the real reason. I bet the comments were more than “awkward.”
The person who attended the Wilson Center talk also noted that Deare made several remarks about how attractive Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, appeared, remarks that person described as “awkward.”

These folks should watch reruns of Celebrity Apprentice before they start working in President Trump’s administration. He values loyalty above all else.
from the article you posted:
“Craig Deare was hired by ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn.”
Further vindicates ousting Flynn: not only is Flynn apparently a liar and disloyal himself, but was busy stocking the NSC with disloyal, loud-mouthed anti-Trumpers.
No doubt the enemedia will portray this as more “chaos”, but I look at it as fulfilling President Trump’s statement many weeks ago that he would fire any of his appointees who failed to perform, which is good for two reasons: 1.) quickly flushes traitors before they can do more harm; 2.) serves as examples to the rest, being akin to nailing dead Coyotes to the fence as a “warning” to the rest.
Another thought. With the position he had, one has to wonder if the guy who was fired is one of the leakers.
Doesn’t matter. If you speak against your boss (president), you should be fired. You can’t run a company (country) without people who are loyal and don’t try to undermine you.
Fake news.
This should be the same with the media. They are not loyal and are working non stop to undermine the President. It is probably not PC to call the media Enemy of the State.
Just added key word: drainingtheswamp
That was the first thing that popped into my head when I read this.
Ties to Hussein Obama, America's FIRST Muslim President.
Hussein is running his shadow government down the street until President Trump strips him of his toys and throws him in prison. But first, President Trump needs to let him have all the rope he was used to having when he played POTUS. It is NOT going to be pretty.

Thinning the herd of saboteurs.

“Craig Deare was hired by ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn.”
Isn't this why Trump decided against Petraus and Houward? They wanted to bring in their own people?
If I recall at either Trump's Press Conference or the Rally, he said they are cleaning the swamp?
No, unfortunately the scumbags fired by the Trump admin. will be beloved in liberal academe (even more so if they have any past associations with Republican officials so they can be trotted out for “balance” and “bi-partisan” creds). This guy will write his own ticket in academe now, no Wal-Mart for him.
Still, the miscreants must be cleared out, new or old. This one was newly appointed by the Trump WH, no Obama holdover here. Sabotage of this admin. will come from a variety of directions and must be met with vigor, as in this case.
Hey Craig . . . YOU’RE FIRED
What’s his professional employment bio? That will shed sufficient light on the situation. I’m happy to see he got his swift comeuppance, with no hand wringing over it.
It’s okay to disagree with Trump .. but you MUST do it to his face; and not in public whining.
LEARN IT .. LOVE IT.
As did Preibus when he was interviewed; the guy's a smooth snake, will tell you what you want to hear, and sell you out to the enemy the entire time. That his deputy is now a known leaker only makes sense.
Firing (getting him out of the way) is the most effective way of dealing with backstabbing “deep state” actions.
No it is not.
If national security is in any way adversely affected, there also should be mandatory 5 year jail term demanded.
