RTL today -Top -Trump officer who works out after chat group scandal: reports

Donald Trump's national security advisor is to leave his post – the first major departure of the president's new term of office, after he was involved in a scandal about a leak of the chat group, US media reported on Thursday.

Mike Waltz and his deputy Alex Wong were both ready to leave the White House, CBS News reported, while Fox News said Trump would soon comment on this matter.

The 51-year-old former US Congressman from Florida took a little more than 100 days of Trump's second term, which was previously more stable in relation to staff than his first.

Trump drove four national security advisors during his first presidency.

An official of the White House did not confirm the reports and said that he “does not want to be an announcement ahead”.

Waltz showed no signs that he knew about his upcoming departure in Fox News early Wednesday and hired the new mineral contract with Ukraine.

“Nobody said (ES) could be done. President Trump said 'enacted,” he said.

Trump increased the US military recruitment, he added: “I'm so excited about it. This is the leadership of the finest, led by our commander -in -chief who loves the troops and love him.”

Waltz, a well -known foreign policy falcon and former US special units, was seen as a moderate voice in the Trump administration when he was appointed.

Trump had repeatedly supported vowel after the scandal broke out at the end of March.

But Waltz was under pressure since the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic Magazine unveiled that he was wrongly added to a chat about the Commercial Messaging app signal about military attacks on Huthi Rebels in Yemen.

Chat officials determined the attack plan, including the times that the US fighting aircraft would take to bomb goals, the first texts barely half an hour before the start.

Defense Minister Pete Hegseth was also exposed to the scandal under pressure.

“1215et: F-18S Start (1st strike package),” wrote Hegseth in a text and referred to F/A-18 US navy jets before adding that “Target Terrorist @ is his well-known place.

“1415: strike drones on the goal (this is when the first bombs definitely drop, so far 'triggered' goals are pending).”

A short time later, Waltz sent real-time intelligence after an attack and wrote that the US armed forces had identified the goal of “going to his girlfriend's building and it has now collapsed”.
