If you aren’t on the team, you aren’t on the team. More than likely, this person lied out of his a$$ when he was interviewed and vetted for his new position.

Firing (getting him out of the way) is the most effective way of dealing with backstabbing “deep state” actions.

“Craig Deare, whom Trump appointed a month ago to head the National Security Council’s Western Hemisphere division”

He doesn’t look like a “hanger on” to me! He’s a Trump appointee.

Someone needs to investigate all upper level management of all the government agencies for ties to George Soros.

His October hit piece in The Hill was brutal—and poorly done, with no evidence to back up his hysterical claims. But he was in the Romney camp before he was with Carson—so that’s not a surprise.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an incident not otherwise made public

Find this one and fire him too.

Craig Deare’s ‘ethical and moral flaws’ make him unfit for NSC job. He should follow Flynn out the door.

He thought he should be allowed to make policy in contradiction to Pres. Trump’s campaign promises and stated policies! Then he goes and smears the WH leadership in talk to outsiders. Rank insubordination, automatic firing offenses!
