Trumps removal of Chiefs of War and Survellience from the NSC is strictly an internal political messaging exercise. Trump has actually just cancelled, indefinitely, any scheduled, routine access these Chiefs had to POTUS. “Don’t call me, I’ll call you…maybe”…Can’t say as I’m crying crocodile tears for the Public personae of the Military Industrial Complex (MIC). So early to set the stage for “coups” at the highest levels. Shows Trump and Brannon have hubris of no bounds and brains of no content. Can we stand an Act II?

Steve Bannon is there to run the projector for the Hitler speech movies and narrate.

Q-Ryan and McConnell stand between us and outright autocracy. Any bets on what happens next?
A- Like all our Congressional COWARDS, they drop their drawers and assume the position.

The Giuliani interview shows that the EO was framed with the intent of being a Muslim ban. Giuliani should be called to testify to this under oath in any proceeding challenging the constitutionality of the EO. The intent of the EO, plus the fact that the persons affected have already been vetted and approved for admission, and the fact that the EO was intended to include not only non-citizen valid visa holders, but also lawful permanent residents, and even naturalized citizens, demonstrate that the claim that the order targets “radical Islamic terrorists” is false. The violations of the constitution and law here are numerous. Off hand, one could mention equal protection, due process, establishment of religion, etc. Trump, Giuliani, and the others on the committee conspired to violate the constitution and US law. Trump has violated his oath to uphold the constitution and should be impeached. I hope the ACLU and other interested parties take due note of this fact.

Nicholas Wibberley, you bring up a good point, as you always do. I guess I’m thinking of the foreigner who may have been sitting on the fence. Worst would be the embarrassed foreign person who tries to defend American values, when debating his fellow country people. Although, you are right America has kind of made it’s bed, and now America has a hard time sleeping in it…oh if only our media told the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. As there I digress…thanks for your input.

I expect it was intended as a “disruptive” move. Remember, Trump doesn’t think of anything other than his base – and the far right (and many Republicans) think this is how the US should be acting. One wonders how long it will take Trump to realize that it’s not only his base that is reacting to his words and his actions.

Israel is already growing less popular in the US. Binding itself to the Most Hated President To Date (he’s number one!!) isn’t going to improve Israel’s prospects with Americans. To say nothing of the rest of the world.

And, incidentally, Trump’s most trusted advisor Steve Bannon is not only a promoter of antisemitism, but also holocaust denial. As are too many of Trump’s admirers.
