"Among the 18 members of Rubio's new "National Security Advisory Council," which his campaign announced on Monday, are Elliott Abrams, a former special assistant to President George W. Bush who's best known for lying to Congress about the Reagan administration's role in the Iran-Contra scandal; Eliot Cohen, a historian, Iraq war supporter, and lawyer at the State Department during the Bush administration; Michael Chertoff, the secretary of homeland security during Bush's second term; and Michael Mukasey, a Bush administration attorney general. Abrams and Cohen were members of the Project for a New American Century, an early-2000s group of neconservatives who pushed for big increases in defense spending, more American military intervention abroad, regime change in Iraq, and other policies that became Bush administration staples."
