Mike Waltz Is Out as National Security Adviser

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

41% : All are noted to be Trump loyalists, which puts them on any shortlist.
37% : He previously severed as a defense policy director with the Department of Defense (DoD) during administration of George W. Bush, and was a counterterrorism adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney.
31% : The streak may have ended on Thursday, as it is reported that Trump could oust national security adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy Alex Wong, apparently over a loss of confidence.
30% : While the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) eliminated more than 280,000 federal jobs across twenty-seven agencies, and President Donald Trump has fired dozens of government officials, including the head of the National Security Agency (NSA) and U.S. Cyber Command, the president's cabinet survived the first 100 days.
27% : Multiple sources have said that Trump has been debating who could fill Waltz's role, should the decision be made to fire the former Florida congressman.
24% : "It speaks volumes that President Trump views the original sin as the addition of a reporter to the Signal chat, rather than the reckless and illegal use of Signal's auto-deleting feature for highly sensitive national security discussions -- conduct that put the safety of our brave men and women in uniform at risk," Chukwu added.
20% : Mike Waltz Wasn't the Only National Security Adviser to Get Axed Should Waltz get the axe, he would be the first senior-level official fired since Trump returned to the White House in January.
