White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Monday commented on the Signal scandal that upset the White House last week, claiming that the "case has been closed."
"As the president has made it very clear, [National Security Adviser] Mike Waltz continues to be an important part of his national security team, and this case has been closed here at the White House. As far as we are concerned, there have been steps made to ensure that something like that can obviously never happen again, and we’re moving forward," Leavitt told reporters.
Last week, The Atlantic magazine revealed that its editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, was added to a Signal group in which top US security officials discussed plans for attacking Yemen's Houthi rebels.
