Question: Why did National Security Advisor Michael Waltz have Atlantic reporter Jeffrey Goldberg's name and phone number on his phone?
No one knows, but a likely answer is that Michael Waltz was leaking information to Jeffrey Goldberg without President Trump's knowledge.
When asked about their relationship, Michael Waltz said he did not know Jeffrey Goldberg at all. And Jeffrey Goldberg said that he did not care to address this question. Michael Waltz had or planned to leak information to Goldberg.
I think it is very likely that Michael Waltz is going bye bye very soon, and not just because of his screw up.
Michael Waltz was serving in Congress until Trump picked him to be his National Security Advisor, which the Republican Senators all approved of because he was the one Trump wanted. I think it is safe to say that Michael Waltz will never serve in an administration nor in Congress ever again. He may get attacked by a MAGA goon. He has really screwed up.
In the meantime Michael Waltz's seat is up for election on April 1. Even though this is a very red district it is possible the Democrats will gain this seat. If that happens, Trump would have sacrificed a Republican seat just to have Michael Waltz on his team. Well played.
