Mike Waltz Out!

The chaotic Trump Administration fires Mike Waltz.

Singalgate officially cost National Security Advisor Mike Waltz his job.

Israel wants Zionists in every fucking American president's cabinent. The Trump Administration is full of them. President Donald J. Trump is trying not to go to war with Iran. But it is more likely we will engage with Iran soon.

Waltz who served Trump for nearly four months is officially fired out the cannon.

He gave up his Florida congressional seat. Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL), a dual citizen of the U.S. and Israel replaced him.

Waltz and his deputy, Alex Wong, will be leaving their posts in the Trump White House, according to multiple sources familiar with their departure.

They are expected to leave Thursday, sources say. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Journalist Mark Halperin first reported the departures. 

The president's chief of staff, Susie Wiles, is having conversations with some of the National Security Council staff today, sources said. 

In March, Waltz came under scrutiny after he put together a Signal chat and mistakenly included The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg, disclosing discussions with top national security officials about plans for a military strike on Houthi targets in Yemen. Goldberg published his account, and he initially omitted operational details, but after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe denied any classified information had been shared on the chat, Goldberg published that information, too, which included the timing of the strikes and the weapons packages used.

Alex N. Wong was ousted too. He helped Trump in his first term meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

After Waltz admitted behind closed doors the authenticity of the reporting, White House officials debated whether he should resign, but Waltz never made the offer, and Trump did not ask him to step down at the time. Publicly, President Trump signaled his support for Waltz by calling him "a good man" who "learned a lesson." 

One source familiar with the situation at the National Security Council said the president thinks sufficient time has passed since the Signal incident that Waltz and Wong's departures can be framed as part of a reorganization. The president has been hesitant to oust Waltz over the perception that doing so could be seen as bending to outside pressure. 

Wong served in the first Trump administration as deputy special representative for North Korea and also as deputy assistant secretary for East Asian and Pacific Affairs at the State Department. In announcing his appointment, Trump said Wong helped negotiate his summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
