During a cabinet meeting, US National Security Advisor Mike Waltz appeared to use an encrypted app, which revealed an incident involving improper communications among top officials. The controversy, called 'SignalGate,' emerged after senior cabinet members used messaging app features inappropriately, which led to challenges in compliance with government records laws. Waltz was ousted following this scandal, recognizing his responsibility in the issue. This highlighted risks of utilizing unsecured channels for sensitive discussions in government operations.
Waltz created the 'Houthi PC Small Group' chat and added top Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg, revealing serious breaches of government operational security protocols.
'I take full responsibility. I built the group,' Waltz told Fox News, acknowledging his role in the SignalGate scandal that exposed federal compliance issues.
