Far-right American nationalists have launched a campaign to smear President Donald Trumps national security adviser H.R. McMaster after he fired a number of their allies from the National Security Council.
Mike Cernovich, a figurehead of the so-called alt-right nationalist movementa loose-knit group of racist white nationalists, conspiracy theorists and misogynistslaunched the website McMasterLeaks.com Wednesday to solicit dirt on Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster from inside and outside the White House.
The website does not have a secure drop box to submit leaks or any comment space to post them and consists of a single post of mostly unsubstantiated claims.
The alt-rights beef with McMaster stems from his firing of Ezra Cohen-Watnick, the NSCs, senior director for intelligence programs; Rich Higgins, the NSCs director for strategic planning; and Derek Harvey, the NSCs senior director for the Middle East.
