Trump’s new national security adviser shakes up staff
10/11/2019
Robert OBrien, the new White House national security adviser, is moving around staffers as he plans to trim the National Security Council in the wake of John Bolton’s departure.
The latest changes include two promotions and one departure, a senior Trump administration official confirmed on Friday. Kevin Harrington, who had been senior director for strategic planning, will now serve as strategic counselor to OBrien. Also moving up is Victoria Coates, a former adviser to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz who has been serving as the NSCs senior director for the Middle East.
