White House dismisses \u2018Signalgate\u2019 as a smear campaign amid media reports of a push to oust the national security adviser<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong> Vice President J.D. Vance and other senior officials \u201cgently offered\u201d<\/em> President Donald Trump to fire National Security Adviser Mike Waltz during a private discussion about the blunder in which Waltz accidentally included a reporter in a confidential chat about US military strikes in Yemen, according to anonymous insider sources cited by Politico.<\/p>\n

Two individuals allegedly familiar with the closed-door meeting at the White House on Wednesday night told Politico that Vance, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and personnel chief Sergio Gor advised Trump that it might be time to cut Waltz loose.<\/p>\n

The president reportedly agreed that Waltz had \u201cmessed up,\u201d<\/em> but ultimately decided against a dismissal.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike hell he\u2019d give the liberal media and pearl-clutching Democrats a win,\u201d<\/em> Politico wrote<\/a> on Friday, citing one insider as saying the administration \u201cdon\u2019t want to give the press a scalp.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The leak, first reported by The Atlantic on Monday, revealed that Waltz had inadvertently invited editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to a confidential Signal chat where senior administration officials were discussing upcoming airstrikes on Houthi militants in Yemen. Waltz has taken \u201cfull responsibility<\/a>\u201d<\/em> for the incident, calling it \u201cembarrassing\u201d<\/em> in a Fox News interview and attributing the inclusion to a technical \u201cglitch.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

President Trump has largely downplayed the controversy, dismissing the media response as a \u201cwitch hunt\u201d<\/em> and questioning the reliability of Signal. He also emphasized that no classified information was compromised and praised the military operation as \u201cunbelievably successful.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt\u00a0voiced the administration\u2019s stance, stating on Monday that \u201cPresident Trump continues to have the utmost confidence in his national security team, including National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Vance, for his part, has publicly aligned himself with the president\u2019s decision. On Friday, he brought Waltz along for a high-profile trip to Greenland, where he dismissed media speculation and defended the national security team.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you think you\u2019re going to force the president of the United States to fire anybody, you\u2019ve got another thing coming,\u201d<\/em> Vance told reporters.<\/p>\n

Yet Politico\u00a0claimed that Waltz\u2019s position remains tenuous, citing one Trump ally who said, \u201cThey\u2019ll stick by him for now, but he\u2019ll be gone in a couple of weeks.\u201d<\/em> Other unnamed sources described longstanding personal and political tensions, alleging that Waltz has alienated colleagues by overstepping boundaries and acting more like a principal than a staffer.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for Waltz, Brian Hughes, pushed back against the narrative, calling the reports \u201cgossip from people lacking the integrity to attach their names.\u201d<\/em> He emphasized that Waltz \u201cserves at the pleasure of President Trump\u201d<\/em> and continues to have the president\u2019s support.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
