Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy to leave posts in White House

  • National Security Adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy Alex Wong are expected to leave their White House posts in early May 2025.
  • Waltz's departure follows his accidental invitation of a journalist into a Signal group chat discussing military strikes on the Houthi group in Yemen.
  • Despite President Trump's public support and denial of any classified leaks, Waltz's influence declined and he was excluded from travel with the president last Tuesday.
  • Trump said, "He’s not getting fired," and called the incident a mistake with "nothing important" disclosed in the messages about strike times by warplanes.
  • Waltz’s exit creates a vacancy potentially filled by Trump friend Steve Witkoff, a special envoy involved in talks with Russia and Iran as Trump pursues international deals.
