Gold prices set for weekly drop as strong dollar weighs; Trump tariffs in focus
Investing.com -- Mike Waltz, U.S. President Donald Trump’s national security adviser, and his deputy, Alex Wong, are set to leave their positions, according to an insider briefed on the situation. The news emerged on Thursday, but it remains unclear if their departure is linked to a recent security breach.
in March, a group chat on the Signal messaging application, used by U.S. government officials for discussing military operations against the Houthis in Yemen, was accidentally exposed to the public. The breach occurred when Mike Waltz unintentionally added Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, to the group. This resulted in the public revelation of highly sensitive information.
The exact reasons for the departures of Waltz and Wong have not been made clear. The incident has been widely reported by multiple news outlets, including Fox and CBS.
