Bolton considering eliminating top cybersecurity job: report

National Security Adviser John Bolton is considering doing away with the top White House cybersecurity job, according to a Politico report.

The push to eliminate the role of special assistant to the president and cybersecurity coordinator is being led by Bolton, and is supported by his deputy Mira Ricardel, Politico reported.

One former official told the news outlet that the odds of the position being abolished were "60-40." That official also said that Ricardel is "thinking about whether to simply pick up the [cyber] function on her own."

The job is currently held by Rob Joyce, who is set to leave his post at the White House to return to the National Security Agency, where he previously worked.

Look at this stuff. The fake news used to rely on "a source" and now it has evolved into "multiple sources" still anonymous, unidentified and unverified.

Bolton Often Blocked Information, Officials Say

Iran, IAEA Matters Were Allegedly Kept From Rice, Powell

John R. Bolton -- who is seeking confirmation as the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations -- often blocked then-Secretary of State Colin L. Powell and, on one occasion, his successor, Condoleezza Rice, from receiving information vital to U.S. strategies on Iran, according to current and former officials who have worked with Bolton.

In some cases, career officials found back channels to Powell or his deputy, Richard L. Armitage, who encouraged assistant secretaries to bring information directly to him. In other cases, the information was delayed for weeks or simply did not get through. The officials, who would discuss the incidents only on the condition of anonymity because some continue to deal with Bolton on other issues, cited a dozen examples of memos or information that Bolton refused to forward during his four years as undersecretary of state for arms control and international security.

Groundswell is the name of an alleged "secret organization" of US conservative activists and journalists highlighted by the liberal publication Mother Jones in July 2013.[1] According to Mother Jones, the group started out meeting in the offices of the conservative legal group Judicial Watch in early 2013 and is led by Ginni Thomas (wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas) and John Bolton.[2][3]

According to leaked documents, the group is staging "a 30 front war seeking to fundamentally transform the nation"[1] by such goals as undermining the power of former GOP strategist and Fox News analyst Karl Rove[4] along with pushing scandals such as the Benghazi bombing and the Operation Fast and Furious gun-running issue,[5] repealing the Affordable Care Act, working behind the scenes to enact voter ID laws, and blocking Obama administration nominees.[1]
