Trump has fired the staffer who who requested top-level national security clearance for Trump's children. Trump's top national security advisor has also resigned.

This request for top security clearance for his children had raised serious questions as days before the election Trump had said his children would be running his New York-based business to avoid a conflict of interest while he is President.

Why did the employees Trump's New York real estate management firm need clearance to read classified government document?

After the election Trump suddenly proposed his children would instead work in the White House with his son-in-law acting as his Chief of Staff.

Trump said he would remain in New York, flying 90 minutes to the White House if he were needed as President.

But Trump quickly learned federal law prohibited him from hiring his family members for White House positions, so under pressure from the Republican leadership he selected Reince Priebus, the Chairman of the Republican Party as his Chief of Staff.
