Dahl was ousted from her position as deputy chief of the NSC and reassigned to a position outside the White House, said three sources to BuzzFeed’s John Hudson, who wrote, “The move frees up National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster to install another staffer of his choosing in his drive to reshape the NSC to his liking.”
Dahl came to the White House as part of Trump’s transition team along with other former Breitbart staffers like Stephen Bannon, Stephen Miller and Sebastian Gorka. The group formed a hard-right, nationalist contingent who positioned themselves in opposition to the so-called “globalist” contingent led by people like McMaster, Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and National Economic Council Director Gary Cohn.
“This White House has been characterized from the start by deep divergences in the foreign policy approaches of senior officials,” said Jeff Rathke of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a foreign policy think tank.
“At the moment, the two camps are bitterly fighting over whether to deploy more troops to Afghanistan, pull the US out of NAFTA, tighten immigration rules, and designate the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization — and over an array of other critical policy options under review,” Hudson wrote.
