Greetings! Thank you to all of you who have been with us since the beginning. Tonight we bring you what is our most urgent update to date. President Donald Trump granted white supremacist Steve Bannon a regular seat at meetings of the National Security Council on Saturday, in a presidential memorandum that brought the former Breitbart publisher into some of the most sensitive meetings formerly reserved for the highest levels of government employees. The president not only named Bannon to the council in a reorganization of the NSC, he also gave his chief-of-staff Reince Priebus a seat in the meetings. Trump also said the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and the director of national intelligence, two of the most senior defense chiefs, will attend meetings only when discussions are related to their “responsibilities and expertise.” This week, Bannon called the press “the opposition party” and said it should “keep its mouth shut.” He has previously described himself as “a Leninist” and an “economic nationalist.” Both Trump and Bannon entered government with no experience in public service, and their restructuring of the National Security Council is proof of their reckless disregard for our governmental system. Contact your elected officials and let them know that this is not acceptable, and we need to act immediately.
