After President Trump met with right-wing conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, the White House proceeded to fire members of the National Security Council and dismissed National Security Agency Director General Paul Nakasone and Deputy Director Mieke Eoyang. Loomer accused them on social media of being "disloyal" to Trump and claimed the firings were due to them being "holdovers from Biden." The changes in the positions of Nakasone and Eoyang may be aimed at eventually separating the management of the NSA and Cyber Command, with Trump intending to appoint a political appointee as the NSA director. Nakasone's tenure lasted just over a year, and he may currently be considering retirement.

Recently, after President Trump met with right-wing conspiracy theorist Loumer, news broke on the 3rd that members of the White House National Security Council were being dismissed, followed by the removal of National Security Agency Director Rogers, while Deputy Director Nobler was reassigned to other units at the Pentagon. Loumer accused Rogers and Nobler of being "disloyal" to Trump on social media. As the commander of the U.S. Cyber Command and Director of the NSA, Rogers was responsible for overseeing a large number of military and intelligence personnel, ensuring the cybersecurity of networks that store government secrets. The daily intelligence briefings for the President of the United States are mostly compiled by the NSA.

According to reports, sources revealed that Rogers was relieved of his duties by the White House on the 3rd, although the specific reasons remain unclear; his civilian deputy Nobler was reassigned to the Pentagon. Democratic members of the Senate Intelligence Committee confirmed the news of Rogers' dismissal. Loumer claimed on social media that the rapid turnover of the NSA's director and deputy director was her achievement, pointing out that Rogers and Nobler were "Biden holdovers" who were removed for being "disloyal" to Trump. She also thanked Trump for taking her information into account.

Rogers' appointment as NSA Director and commander of Cyber Command was unanimously approved by the Senate and had received bipartisan support during his tenure. Former officials noted that the White House's decision to dismiss Rogers may be aimed at appointing different individuals to lead the NSA and Cyber Command, a concept that emerged during Trump's first term. In the future, Trump plans to choose an NSA director through political appointment instead of being limited to military generals. Rogers had served for just over a year and may apply for retirement from the Air Force within the next 60 days.
