Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
I'm wondering if this is intentional - loot whatever is left of the US welfare state, cause a major recession, blame all the freaks who left in the first six months when the next election comes up.
Though assuming they have any plan at all is generous thinking on my part.
blame all the freaks who left in the first six months when the next election comes up.
Nope. They'll just blame minorities for it. 
Neocon down! 🎉🎊
The last waltz for our butt rock adjacent national security adviser
omg are they really related? hilarious
No more leaks! .·´¯(>▂<)´¯·.
Unless someone else wants to? (⊙o⊙)
Waltz and Wong have been on the chopping block ever since the signal leaks. Laura Loomer in particular has made multiple posts on twitter (and an in person visit to Trump) to campaign to get him fired.
I suspect that Waltz has been deliberately leaking information to what Trump calls "establishment journalists", to try reign Trump in, and the signal leaks to Goldberg were part of that. So now he's gone.

This report by Axios says that Laura Loomer may have convinced Trump to be against Mike Waltz even before the signal leaks.
