The White House is weighing a plan to dismiss Alexander Vindman from the National Security Council after he testified in President Donald Trump’s impeachment inquiry, preparing to position the move as part of a broader effort to shrink the foreign policy bureaucracy, two people familiar with the matter said.
The White House intends to portray any house-cleaning as part of a downsizing of the NSC staff, not retaliation, according to the people.
Some of the officials being targeted for removal from the NSC would be reassigned because they’re perceived as being disloyal to the president, three people familiar with the matter said on condition of anonymity owing to the sensitivity of personnel moves.

Any house cleaning has to start with the FIB Director, Chris Wray.
Only two appointees I believe at IRS, commissioner and chief counsel.
The Pres. has a very narrow window of time, when he can fire them all, because it's only "all over" for now and will start anew like Freddy Krueger in a few weeks. Once a new witch hunt is underway, POTUS would be charged with interfering, obstruction of justice, etc., if he fired anyone. Same goes for investigating Bidens or Burisma or any Dem politicians on the take.
It would be nice to think that, but it would probably be better in the long run to just fire one or two once in awhile and not a whole bunch all at one time. If you fire a whole bunch at one time the people will conceive you as being an unfair monster that is out of control and when it comes to election time they will vote you out. Trumps 2016 win basically came from cross over votes, and every day more life long Democrats are crossing over to being life long Republican voters, these cross over voters are unpredictable and react on emotion more then intelligence, it is best for the president to slowly keep winning then to make some major move that would cause those cross over voters from going back to voting Democrat. You don't want to be like Gen Lee at Gettysburg on the third day and think you are invincible, it happens all the time in politics, one day they love you, the next day they are hanging you.
Pleeeeeze!! WH stop telegraphing your punches!! Do and then tell us! Please!
Should be facing the firing squad tomorrow.
I ain’t no ways tired..:)
Can that hard case Secret Service guy who was escorting Trump to and from the SOTU—you know, the bald guy?—throw him out the front door on his ass? Huh? Huh? Can he? With cameras and everything?
He’s playing it smart..not making it a direct attack.
Just keep steadily picking them off where it really hurts..their jobs/positions.
He has to weaken the corrupt machine before going for the death blow.
No matter how you spin it the Lamestream Media will portray it as retaliation.
But don’t let that stop you. This needs to happen.
Hope there is a broom closet someplace in the Pentagon and he can be put to counting out stacks of paper towels for the restrooms.
Maybe I should get him a farewell gift.
I wonder if he has a MAGA cap?
And I hope they put his twin brother in another broom closet on the other side of the Pentagon and he will be checking the towel count in the piles that his brother makes. If the count doesn’t match then they throw the stacks back in the first closet and tell him to start all over again.
I suspect the HOR will investigate on the “motives” of Vindeman being fired. Of course some crap head will say they heard President saying he wanted revenge fire Vindeman.
Then in a few months another abuse of power charge blah blah blah.
Oh say can you see....Mr. Vindman, you’re fired.
As long as it doesn’t interfere with my other super hero job.
At issue is whether our representatives govern USA, or are we completely ruled by an un-representative government. If POTUS cannot actual run his administration. If he cannot choose every single person who works within it. If; then clearly POTUS is no longer the chief executive. And DC is criminally operated, outside of the LAW.
USA began a revolution against its original rulers, in Britain, many years ago. The causal event, was: taxation/ruling over, without representation. Our father had no representation in their government. Just like we USAians clearly have un-representative government in DC.
Period.
wait ...you meant vindjob...
NOBODY is in prison.
