Doofus who leaked classified secrets is now UN ambassador. Cool.
The Senate voted on Friday to confirm the appointment of President Donald Trump to Michael Waltz to be an American ambassador to the United Nations. Waltz is best known for Signalgate, which started when the senior official invited a journalist to a Top Secret group cat who revealed classified information on military strikes.
Waltz was confirmed On a vote of 47-43. A single republican, the Kentucky senator, Rand Paul, voted against the appointment while all the other Republicans voted the sustained waltz. Waltz also had the support of three Democrats: meaning. John Fetterman from Pennsylvania, Mark Kelly of Arizona and Jeanne Shaheen from New Hampshire.
In March, when Waltz was a national security advisor, he invited the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg, to a private conversation in the signal application which included leaders such as the defense secretary Pete Hegseth and the vice-president JD Vance. The journalist Given national security information concerning a military strike against the Houthi rebels.

Thanks to the negligence of Waltz, Goldberg has seen war plans– including the exact moments when the bombs are deployed and information on the weapons systems used. When the security forfeiture has become public, Trump’s team tried to minimize disclosure as a trivial. But later The reports revealed that the information came from a classified email labeled “Secret / Noforn”. The “Noforn” designation is intended to avoid disclosure to anyone who is a foreign national, to protect American intelligence and staff.
Waltz was relieved From his functions in the Storm of Fire after the disclosure, but Trump then turned and appointed him to be his UN ambassador.
In July, the testimony of the senatorial committee of foreign relations, Waltz blamed the flight to the Biden administration instead of appropriating its actions. He supported that the signal application was “not only authorized, it was recommended” by team Biden – which does not explain why he added a journalist to a group cat where such sensitive information was shared.
Waltz’s confirmation comes a few days before the United Nations starts to hold Its general assembly from September 22 to 30. As a major global superpower, the United States plays a central role in the key international meeting and the country will be represented by Waltz.
Instead of being outside by looking after a series of serious information, Waltz was rewarded. Who knows if her loose lips beat in the UN
The previous losses of Waltz have exposed secret information intended to ensure the safety of the Americans. Now Trump has given him a global platform to double his failure.
