- Mike Waltz, national security adviser, reportedly used his personal Gmail account for government communications, raising security concerns.
- The Washington Post indicated that Waltz sent his schedule and work documents to his personal account while a staffer communicated about military positions via Gmail.
- The National Security Council (NSC) stated that Waltz did not send classified information through an open account and ensured that his official email was included in communications.
- The NSC is investigating how a journalist was added to a Signal group where sensitive military details were discussed.
"National Security Adviser Michael Waltz showed a lack of common sense and judgment (again) in using his personal Gmail account to discuss sensitive military positions and powerful weapons systems related to an ongoing conflict. Waltz should resign."— Democratic Representative Ted Lieu of California said on X, formerly Twitter.
