NSC Staffers Fired in Signal Chat Fallout
Fallout from the Trump administration's Signal chat fiasco has resulted in at least three National Security Council staffers being fired.
National security adviser Mike Waltz inadvertently added Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor of The Atlantic magazine, to a March 11 group text using the Signal encrypted messaging service where top officials were discussing plans to attack the Houthis in Yemen.
On Saturday, President Donald Trump made his clearest commitment to not fire anyone over the accidental leak of his administration's plans for an airstrike against the Houthis.
However, sources told Axios that several NSC members have been fired. CNN reported three NSC staffers were fired.
