President Donald Trump’s national security adviser, Mike Waltz, will leave his position as national security adviser at the White House, as will his deputy, Alex Wong, according to multiple outlets.

Waltz, 51, has been mired in controversy for several weeks. He admitted responsibility for accidentally and unknowingly adding a reporter to the now-infamous Signal group chat in which senior officials debated whether to begin a military campaign in the Middle East.

“We are not going to respond to reporting from anonymous sources,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Washington Examiner.

Waltz, the former Florida congressman, is the first major Trump administration official to be moved out of the administration. The move comes amid a week of celebration from the administration designed to highlight all the achievements of the first 100 days of Trump’s second term.
