national security advise evers who hose whens are membered of the national security council, minus the president and the vice president. and so you have the senior cabinet figures coming together on a regular basis, chaired by the president's national security adviser. you then have the deputies committee, which is the number twos in most of the departments, sometimes number throw, depending on what department you're talking about. that is trying to manage the process almost on a day-to-bay bay day and is the crisis management facilitator. then you hearchanged from administration to administering -- you have the aassistant secretary elf enter allege -- currently the enter agency policy commit years, ipcs, that sometimes get chaired by the departments and sometimes get chaired by the nsc. always a big fight about that issue. on whether the department gets to chair it. over time, the reality is, because the central mechanism is in the white house, it tends to be chaired by the nsc. so even in the obama administration, where initially there was an -- one the first memorandum by the presid

with the national security adviser. but they have a mandate to work in the policy areas in their aggressive people making a difference. so they take initiative and tried to control what goes on. so it increases the difficulty people in the agencies been able to take initiatives and connect effectively with the national security adviser. it makes it -- but because there's only one security adviser, it creates a bottleneck because all of these people are generating ideas. they're so good at it. they care. they come to to government as they want to make a difference. but in that since a large number is the enemy of the good. and i wrote a piece in 2000 for brookings in which we said we think 40 - 50 is about right. that did not include homeland security. if you had that it gets bigger. but under bush and barack obama it has gotten bigger. >> a couple of points on it. first the idea that congress should legislate presidential staff in the white house, they may or may not be allowed to do it but it's not a wise thing to do.

national security advisor and whose chair are all the members of the national security council. mine is the president and sometimes the vice president. and so you have senior cabinet figures coming together on a regular basis, chaired by by the president's national security advisor. you have the deputy committees, number twos in most of the departments, sometimes number three, depending on what department you're talking about, trying to manage the process almost on a day-to-day basis and is the crisis management facility, facilitator. and third you have, this is where it changes from administration to administration, you have the assistant secretary level interagency working groups get renamed under every president because you know the president's prerogative. so currently the interagency policy committee's, i pc's, sometimes get chaired by departments and sometimes get chaired by the nsc. there is always a big fight about that issue on whether a department gets to chair it. over time, the reality is, is because the central mechanism is in the white house, it tends to be chaired

the "national enquirer" broke that news the week of the election. actually, to give them their credit they had quite a bit. they had quite a bit of new stuff. they had a whole bunch of scoops just on that one cover that one week. there's the seedy romp caught on camera at this motel, roughly identified in the picture by the sign that says "motel." they also broke news on the same cover that hillary clinton was not just having a seedy on-camera romp at this motel, it was a gay seedy romp at this motel because apparently hillary clinton is gay. at least she's gay when she's at that motel. also same cover, yet another scoop, hillary clinton is hooked on drugs, hillary clinton is hooked on narcotics. also same cover, yet another scoop, hillary clinton blackmailed the fbi. in a back room deal to avoid prosecution. that's a lot of news to break on one $1.95 cover. if you notice, though, the red banner at the top, this scoop-filled cover, that issue of the "national enquirer," wait, there's more. that was only one part of a two-part "national enquirer" exc

our national security is strengthened when we're at the table at the united nations and the united nations more effective when american leadership and values are on display. in a time where the world is in turmoil, it is the interest of the american people from the united states to support and maintain cultural alliances and institutions that create stability, more important today than ever before. we already have seen that instability and unrest bringing cr crisis to our own doors. in the 20th century, europe has been divided by wars and rivalries. today, europe faces its challenges but the progress in creating a stable and free europe with such institutions as nato, the eu, the organization for security and cooperation in europe has contributed to european peace, stability and prosperity and to the american strength, well-being and leadership in the world as well. the vitality and endurance of these institutions serve the interests of the united states. so let me just mention one last point. i was particularly disturbed by president-elect trump's comments over the weekend about nato, as
