Summary

White House insiders blame National Security Adviser Mike Waltz for a group chat error that exposed military strike discussions to journalist Jeffrey Goldberg.

Waltz mistakenly added Goldberg to a Signal chat about potential strikes in Yemen, involving key officials like Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and JD Vance.

Trump has defended Waltz but is reportedly weighing his options.

Some aides urge resignation to avoid forcing Trump to make a decision. Critics call Waltz reckless, but House Speaker Mike Johnson opposes his resignation.

    No, every single member of that chat should have pointed out that the communication violates multiple clear, long existing federal laws about how communications about federal government business is to be conducted, especially about military operations, and refused to communicate via signal instead of approved channels.

    All of them violated multiple laws.
