So why is he resigning? Bloomberg tells us:
President Donald Trump’s homeland security adviser, Tom Bossert, will resign at the request of new National Security Adviser John Bolton, a person familiar with the matter said.
And…
Homeland security adviser Tom Bossert “was pushed out,” multiple White House sources tell @jeffzeleny and @danmericaCNN. Bossert’s departure also caught officials at the National Security council, including those who worked directly with the homeland security adviser, off guard.

There were rumors of a shakeup when Bolton came on board and it looks like the shakeup has begun!
