Trump Dismisses Security Adviser Mike Waltz Over Classified Signal Group Leak
Trump Dismisses Security Adviser Mike Waltz Over Classified Signal Group Leak

President Trump has terminated National Security Adviser Mike Waltz following a breach of classified communications via a Signal group chat. The incident marks the first high-profile dismissal of Trump’s second term, underscoring escalating tensions within the administration’s inner circle.
The controversy erupted when Waltz inadvertently added journalist Jeffrey Goldberg to a private Signal group containing real-time discussions of U.S. military operations. The Atlantic confirmed Goldberg accessed sensitive details—including target coordinates and strike timing—for a Yemen airstrike two hours before execution. Waltz later claimed full responsibility for creating the unauthorized channel during a Fox News interview.
