Trump fires National Security Council officials over concerns about their loyalty

President Donald Trump has reportedly fired as many as six National Security Council staffers over concerns about their loyalty to the administration.

The purported firings, reported Thursday by multiple news outlets including The New York Times, purportedly followed a meeting Trump had with loyalist and right-wing activist Laura Loomer.

Loomer reportedly presented the president with research at a meeting Wednesday about which staffers she found to be disloyal to him.

The names of the staffers who were reportedly fired have not been made public.

NSC spokesman Brian Hughes told The Associated Press the White House doesn't discuss personnel matters.

Individuals who were also present at the meeting include Vice President JD Vance, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, according to the wire service. 

Loomer confirmed on social media she met with the president.

“It was an honor to meet with President Trump and present him with my research findings,” she said in a post on X. “I will continue working hard to support his agenda, and I will continue reiterating the importance of, and the necessity of STRONG VETTING, for the sake of protecting the President of the United States of America, and our national security."
