Senile Bernie Sanders: Remove Steve Bannon from National Security Council

Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont is calling for Stephen Bannon to be removed from National Security Council, saying it is not the place for “an extreme right-wing political operative.”
President Trump signed a memo over the weekend that reorganized the National Security Council. It placed Mr. Bannon, White House chief strategist and former editor of Breitbart News, on the council and removed the director of national intelligence and the chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff from NSC principals meetings.
“Steve Bannon sitting on the National Security Council is dangerous and unprecedented. He must be removed,” Mr. Sanders said on Twitter.

Who cares what that old faux Socialist says about anything? He should just go retire to his three homes.

Never change, Bernie. You're always good for a laugh or two....

Hey Berns, how does it feel to know that a lot of people who would've voted for you, put Trump in the White House?
Pound sand old man.

I can't wait for Rennis Rinke to chime in on this.

No, he'll be here longer than Sanders will.

What precisely is the "precedent" it's breaking?

Having a socialist in the Senate is OK, though.

Clinton should have financed Bernie's third party run.

So y'all really think Bannon usurping the chairmen of national intelligence and the Joint Chiefs is good for national security?

You didn't watch the press briefing today, did you?

I don't think I'm ok with that at all.

That's not what happened. They were removed from having to attend meetings that they aren't needed for. (Pandemic flu was the example used by Spicer today)

You didn't watch the press briefing obviously.

No I didn't. However, I did read an NPR transcript of an interview with Michael Hayden, the director of the CIA under Bush from 2006-2009. Hayden voiced strong concerns that Bannon, a man with "no high-level military experience, no high-level national security experience," is now a charter member of the council, while the roles of the top military and intelligence adivsers appear to be diminished, since "their attendance is at the discretion of Mike Flynn," the White House's national security advser.
