U.S. President Donald Trump fires NSC officials a day after far-right activist Laura Loomer raises concerns about staff loyalty

U.S. President Donald Trump fires NSC officials a day after far-right activist Laura Loomer raises concerns about staff loyalty

Trump fires NSC officials after activist Laura Loomer raises concerns, sparking controversy and questions about loyalty and security.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday (April 3, 2025) that he's fired "some" White House National Security Council (NSC) officials, a move that comes a day after far-right activist Laura Loomer raised concerns directly to him about staff loyalty.

Mr. Trump downplayed Ms. Loomer's influence on the firings. But Ms. Loomer during her Oval Office conversation with Mr. Trump urged the President to purge staffers she deemed insufficiently loyal to his “Make America Great Again” agenda, according to several people familiar with the matter. They all spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive personnel manner.

“Always we’re letting go of people,” Mr. Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One as he made his way to Miami on Thursday afternoon (April 3, 2025). “People that we don’t like or people that we don’t think can do the job or people that may have loyalties to somebody else.”

Ms. Loomer appeared to take credit for the firings in a post on Thursday (April 3, 2025) on X, writing, “You know how you know the NSC officials I reported to President Trump are disloyal people who have played a role in sabotaging Donald Trump?” She then noted that “the fired officials” were being defended by Mr. Trump critics on CNN and MSNBC.

The firings by Mr. Trump of NSC staff come at a tumultuous moment for Mr. Trump and his national security team. His national security advisor Mike Waltz, continues to fight back calls for his ouster after using the publicly available encrypted Signal app to discuss planning for the sensitive March 15 military operation targeting Houthi militants in Yemen.
