President Donald J. Trump confirmed Wednesday what patriotic Americans have come to expect from his America First leadership — that those who fail to put country before career are swiftly shown the door. Speaking to reporters near Air Force One, Trump addressed reports that multiple National Security Council (NSC) staffers were recently let go. His reason? It’s simple: “We will always let go [of] people that we don’t like, or people that we don’t think do the job, or people that may have loyalties to somebody else.”
Translation: If you’re working against the president’s agenda — the agenda that voters overwhelmingly backed — you’re not working for America.
This isn’t just a routine staff shuffle. It’s a continuation of President Trump’s longstanding battle against embedded deep-state bureaucrats who view their job not as serving the American people, but preserving the permanent Washington political class. And true to form, the media wasted no time spinning the story — pinning the firings on conservative firebrand Laura Loomer, claiming she “influenced” the decision during a meeting with Trump earlier this week.
Let’s be clear: Loomer didn’t make the call. President Trump did. And he made it as a commander-in-chief determined to cleanse our national security apparatus of disloyal, holdover swamp creatures who’ve spent the past decade leaking, undermining, and plotting against the will of the American people.
Trump dismissed the rumor-mongering outright. “She makes recommendations of things and people, and sometimes I listen to those recommendations,” Trump said of Loomer, calling her a “very good patriot.”
“She’s recommended some good people over the years. She’s been in the party a long time. She’s done a good job,” Trump added — a refreshing reminder that, unlike the Biden regime, the Trump White House is actually open to advice from America First warriors who understand what’s at stake.
Loomer herself, for her part, was measured in her response, refusing to divulge any specifics about her April 2 Oval Office meeting with Trump. “Out of respect for President @realDonaldTrump and the privacy of the Oval Office, I’m going to decline on divulging any details,” she wrote on X. “I will continue reiterating the importance of, and the necessity of STRONG VETTING.”
She’s absolutely right. Strong vetting is not just advisable in this day and age — it’s essential. President Trump has spent his political career cleaning house, and if 2024 taught us anything, it’s that he’ll keep doing it. That’s exactly why the Washington establishment hates him so much. He doesn’t play their game.
These staff firings come just days after another embarrassing episode involving National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, who mistakenly added a journalist to a Signal group chat containing sensitive details about upcoming U.S. strikes on Iranian-backed Houthi militants in Yemen. Let that sink in: one of the administration’s most senior national security officials allowed classified war planning to leak — not to a foreign adversary, but to our own media, which might be even worse in today’s climate.
Despite that blunder, the White House announced on April 1 that it was “no longer looking into the incident.” Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the situation, calling it “closed.” That’s not exactly the “most transparent administration in history,” is it?
And while the White House is sweeping that embarrassment under the rug, the Pentagon’s acting inspector general announced on April 3 that an investigation is underway into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s use of the Signal app.
While the media stirs up soap opera drama about Loomer and leakers, Trump is quietly doing what he was elected to do: restore accountability, demand loyalty, and secure the safety of our nation. That’s called leadership.
Americans should take comfort in knowing that under Trump, the national security apparatus is finally being run like it belongs to the American people — not the Beltway elite. Disloyal operatives beware: Trump is watching, and he’s not afraid to clean house.
