White House national security adviser Mike Waltz is reportedly leaving the Trump administration, along with his deputy, Alex Wong, following an incident where Waltz mistakenly added Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg to a private chat discussing military strikes against Yemen’s Houthis. Despite the controversy, Trump defended Waltz as a “very good man,” but both officials have faced pressure from right-wing activist Laura Loomer, who has called for their dismissal. There has been no official confirmation from the White House or the National Security Council regarding their departures.
