Give complete info. He has been nominated as US ambassador to the UN. Some might see him as been promoted. Trump allowed the dust to settle first before making his move. That's leadership.
I don't think it is a promotion though. Being the national security advisor is a very huge role where you can decide the president last and decisive actions based on security. As UN ambassador, he does not have the security clearance anymore and just a foreign official to an organization

Waltz is a Trump Man.
He was not really sacked. He was removed as National security Adviser quite alright but is being transferred to the UN as the US Ambassador.
Thanks 👍 for the information.

According to VP Vance & Marco Rubio the Secretary of State, it's more a promotion.

Thank goodness you said"according to them" as it is just an inner caucus talk, to protect a colleague and not the fact. NSA has always been one of the highest powerful positions in the presidency of any country, higher than any ambassador, even ministers.

The guy is addicted to chatrooms, even as an appointed intelligence chief. He committed a follow-up offence by creating another high-level security intelligence group, and added his wife and other family members and friends as participants. Bunch of clowns
You are wrong bro, it is the Chief of defence staff who did that.

CNN said he has been redeployed to UN ambassador. But it's more like Trump stylishly outed the guy from any security briefing. He's a big saboteur

Are you sure? He appointed him as US ambassador to the UN at thesame time
it is better than handling the national security of his country .. at least he will be very much limited about classified information...

The United States President, Donald Trump, has sacked his National Security Adviser, Michael Waltz, for mistakenly adding a journalist to a highly sensitive Signal group chat detailing planned military strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Steve Witkoff, the president’s special envoy who has met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, is being considered as a potential replacement.

I think the president should be very careful
Re: Trump Sacks NSA, Michael Waltz Over Leaked Information by baralatie(m): 11:09am On May 02, 2025
Discussing serious security issues on chatgroup?
Well
That is the result

Halperin reported “unhappiness throughout the national security establishment” with Waltz and his deputy, Alex Wong, over the breach.

Because they are just imagining the number of leaks that may have been out there undiscovered becyof him,his actions and connivances
Re: Trump Sacks NSA, Michael Waltz Over Leaked Information by NotOfThisWorld(f): 11:19am On May 02, 2025
Pete Hegseth should be next.

This happened over a month ago. Should have dismissed him immediately.

Not a fan of Trump but this is decisive. Can hardly in Nigeria.
From an advisor to a UN ambassador, isn't that a promotion sort of.

If Tinubu had done the same here, you lots would be screaming favouritism

Yeah. That's why he's hiring a guy whos discussing highly classified war information in a group chat. 🙄

As bad as Tinubu be, I can't see him hiring someone this blatantly incompetent

grin Waltz wasn't sacked grin
He wasn't removed either grin
WALTZ RESIGNED grin
Because Trump refused to bomb Iran for Israel grin
Waltz had believed, if diplomacy fails with Iran, then bombs will start falling on Isfahan grin
4getting that bombs hasn't deterred Yemen nor Hamas grin
After frustrating the talks to a halt, he bitterly realized that Trump wasn't going to follow through with an airstrike grin
So, another loss for Israel. Let Waltz go to the UN to continue his noise making grin

Someone who has been recommended for UN Ambassadorial position. He must have said "thank you"!

It was only a matter of time. Hegseth is another weak link.

Hasn't he done worse? Removing a democratically elected governor for his bedmate in Abuja? Can trump ever do that? He will be impeached for it. Trump signed an executive order, the governor of Maine refused to follow. He didn't do anything, rather took her to court and refused government aide. She also took him to court that they deserve the aid. Can Tinubu ever? That's a place where law works. Tinubu isn't a leader. He's a Capon. Take it by force mentality, if you don't do what I want, I will unleash my power because I have boys... That's madness, not leadership

It's not leadership.... it's nepotism. Billionaire friends and donors are put into these high positions.... square pegs in round holes. He let the journalist in on the chat... then he later let family members in on another discussion...a blatant breach of national security. He can't fire him ... moved him to another position. Who is Witcoff? .. a Zionist. that would be basically the carrying out the wishes of Netanyahu .... instigating a war with Iran. Leadership indeed.

It might be deliberate then.

Trust the CIA to always come up with the most psychology-wracking move possible.

The more you look, the less you see.

On a second thought, maybe he deserves a second chance because that position is a very sensitive one and hard to fill with people who are loyal
Re: Trump Sacks NSA, Michael Waltz Over Leaked Information by Amayabor1: 1:35pm On May 02, 2025
Most of his cabinet members are sycophants. They are not qualified for the job. He just picked people who can easily say "yes" to him. Before he leaves office, he will have a fallout with most of these people (including Musk).

SO MUCH FOR A PEACEFUL PRESIDENT.

TRUMP HAS ONLY CONTINUE FROM WHERE BIDEN STOPS WHILE PRETENDING TO MAKE PEACE.

TRUMP HAS;

1. CONTINUE WAR IN UKRAINE AND SUPPLY WEAPONS AND MONEY INTO THE CONFLICT

2. CONTINUE GENOCIDE IN GAZA AFTER A FAKE CEASEFIRE

3. CONTINUE THE BOMBING IN YEMEN WHILE BOOSTING ABOUT IT.

4. CONTINUE TO STATION AMERICA TROOPS IN SYRIA INSTEAD OF WITHDRAWING THEM AS HE PROMISED.

5. PREPARING FOR A WAR WITH IRAN AND FAILING TO NEGOTIATE PEACE.

7. PREPARING FOR A WAR WITH CHINA WHILE ALSO HITTING CHINA WITH TARIFFS


AT LEAST BIDEN WAS HONEST ABOUT HIS CRIMES AND NEVER PROMISED TO ENGAGED IN WAR WITH IRAN AND CHINA.

TRUMP AND BIDEN ARE ONE AND THE SAME DEEP STATE PUPPET/WARMONGER. AMERICANS ARE IN DEEP SHIT, CHINA WILL DESTROY THEM ECONOMICALLY, WHILE RUSSIA WILL DESTROY THEM MILITARILY.

AS A NATION, YOU SHOULD HAVE PRIORITY.

EURASIA IS RUSSIAN PRIORITY, TAIWAN AND SOUTH CHINA SEA ARE CHINA PRIORITIES, RESISTANCE TO ISREAL IMPERIALISM IS IRAN PRIORITY, SOUTH KOREA IS NORTH KOREA PRIORITY....... BUT FOR AMERICA, THE ENTIRE WORLD IS THEIR PRIORITY/NATIONAL SECURITY CONCERN. THAT IS WHY THEY END UP FIGHTING WINLESS WARS ALL AROUND THE WORLD AND ENDED UP BEING CHASED OUT OF MANY COUNTRIES
