White House National Security Council hit by more firings weeks after Rubio took charge
Briefly

The White House National Security Council (NSC) is undergoing a significant restructuring, initiated by President Donald Trump, aimed at downsizing the agency's influence and workforce. Termination notices have been issued to many staff members, and the NSC is anticipated to diminish to a few dozen employees. This change follows Secretary of State Marco Rubio's recent appointment as acting national security advisor. The restructuring intends to shift authority back to the State and Defense Departments, marking a strategic pivot for U.S. national security coordination amidst increasing global tensions.
A large restructuring of the White House National Security Council got under way on Friday as President Donald Trump moved to reduce the size and scope of the once-powerful agency.
The restructuring of the NSC is expected to grant more authority to the State Department, the Defense Department and other agencies, the sources said.
