- 4 key dynamics at play in the Signal chat leak
- Date posted
- 1 year ago
- Description
- In a new video, Capitol Hill Bureau Chief and Senior Washington Columnist Rachael Bade discusses the big question on everyone’s minds at the White House right now: Is President Donald Trump going to fire national security adviser Mike Waltz for sharing what looks like a war plan in a group chat?
Waltz inadvertently added a reporter to a highly sensitive Signal conversation with himself and other top Trump officials, where they discussed U.S. plans to bomb the Houthis in Yemen.
A person very close to the White House, granted anonymity to speak candidly, told POLITICO last night: “Everyone in the White House can agree on one thing: Mike Waltz is a f–ing idiot.”
Ultimately, Waltz’s fate is going to be Trump’s call. This morning, he told NBC that he still has confidence in Waltz — but that could change on a dime.
Want to know the four key dynamics to watch as the scandal unfolds? Watch the video here.

- YOUR MORNING LISTEN: If you’ve paid attention to the inner workings of Trump’s White House, you may know the “Ice Maiden” — that’s the president’s nickname for chief of staff Susie Wiles. Today, meet “The Oracle.”
For this week’s episode of “Playbook Deep Dive,” POLITICO’s Capitol Bureau Chief Rachael Bade sat down with James Blair, the White House deputy chief of staff for legislative, political and public affairs. Blair was Trump’s political director in 2024, when his buddies coined the nickname — which he jokes was “half-pejorative” because of his know-it-all swagger, but half serious due to his predictions being right. Among the highlights:
On the White House’s approach to corralling lawmakers: “Our goal is always to resolve things privately… But I'd put it this way: The president and the vice president, the whole team is pretty aware of the various levers that can be pulled to move the agenda along. And I think we a...

- Description
- Elon Musk’s DOGE has ripped through huge swathes of the federal government, but no target has been hit like the U.S. Agency for International Development. On Monday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio thanked Musk and boasted that 83 percent of USAID programs had been canceled.
The political fallout of USAID’s dismantling is still unclear, but the practical consequences of freezing foreign aid and disrupting longstanding programs are starting to add up for the Trump administration.
