Breitbart: President-elect Donald Trump named Thomas Bossert his deputy for domestic and transnational security priorities, which will be an equal and distinct portfolio from the portfolio given to incoming National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
“Tom brings enormous depth and breadth of knowledge and experience to protecting the homeland to our senior White House team,” said Trump. “He has a handle on the complexity of homeland security, counterterrorism, and cybersecurity challenges. He will be an invaluable asset to our administration.”
His title will be assistant to the president for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism.
“We must work toward cyber doctrine that reflects the wisdom of free markets, private competition and the important but limited role of government in establishing and enforcing the rule of law, honoring the rights of personal property, the benefits of free and fair trade, and the fundamental principles of liberty,” he said.
“The Internet is a U.S. invention, it should reflect these U.S. values as it continues to transform the future for all nations and all generations,” Bossert said. MORE
