On Tuesday, March 25, Democratic Senator Ron Wyden called on US National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to resign due to an "obvious national security breach." This was reported by Fox News, writes UNN.
Obviously, my colleagues and I take war planning meetings over unclassified phones very seriously. Obviously, it is reckless and dangerous, like mishandling classified information, as well as deliberately destroying federal records or potential crimes that should be investigated immediately,"
Earlier, US National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard said during a hearing in the Senate Intelligence Committee that there was "no classified data" in the Signal chat, to which the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic was accidentally added.
Reminder
The editor of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg, reported that he was accidentally added to a chat in Signal, where he witnessed a discussion of future attacks on Houthi targets in Yemen.
This caused a heated debate in the White House: an investigation has been launched, and there is even talk that National Security Advisor Mike Waltz should be fired.
In turn, Donald Trump supported Mike Waltz after the incident with the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic getting into a closed chat where military plans were discussed. Trump said the situation did not affect the military operation.
