Who is Mike Waltz and why is his departure significant?
The National Security Advisor exists as the top national security point of contact for between the president and what is called the NSC, the National Security Council. The National Security Council partially is housed actually in the White House, but mostly is actually in the Eisenhower Executive Office building, which is technically on White House grounds.
What is the role of the National Security Advisor in U.S. foreign policy?
It's that ugly, monolithic, big building right next to the White House. Michael Waltz, being the National Security Advisor, he did last longer than Michael Flynn, but of course Michael Flynn was taken out by our own government. Now, there's always been, let's just say, upheaval when it comes to the national security position, when it comes to President Trump. Famously, he had H.R. McMaster or John Bolton. President Trump likes to put people in that role that are sometimes more hawkish, more aggressive than he is as a way of kind of a negotiating tactic is that when you walk into a room with John Bolton with Iran, they think, my goodness, that guy's a lunatic. He might bomb us. And President Trump can kind of use that as a tactic.
let's just say, a leveraging tactic as a negotiating tool. Now, understand, the National Security Advisor is one of the first faces the president sees every single morning when it comes from a work context. Every morning, the president receives his daily briefing. The person who administers that daily briefing is the National Security Advisor. So all night into the early hours of the morning, the National Security Council is compiling, let's just say, five to six bullet points what the president needs to know. Here's what's happening in Iran. Here's what's happening with Russia. Here's the threats from China. Here's what's happening cyber. The National Security Advisor puts all of that together, goes straight up to the president after he consolidates what is the hub in the National Security Council and presents it to the president. Mr. President, here's what's going on. Here is your daily confidential classified, I should say. presidential briefing. That person needs to get along very well with the president.
