President Trump's national security adviser said tensions with Iran won't slow his plans to shrink the size of the National Security Council.
In an exclusive interview with NPR, Robert O'Brien said he expects to have trimmed about a third of the ranks at the National Security Council by the end of next month.
"I think the reality is by the time we finish up, by the end of this month, end of next month, that we'll probably have about 60 to 70 staffers who've gone back to their home agency," O'Brien said.

Because bringing us into a global war means less need for a National Security Council, n’est-çi pas?

There’s an old Saying less is more and it is true!! These councils and government entities have grown too big!! Congress needs to be cut down in size as well!! Term limits need to be imposed and the people need to step up and take back control of our country!! People have forgotten that the government employees work for us not rule us!!! We The People run this country not the Political parties they are to work and do what the people want not their personal agendas!!
