Trump removes Mike Waltz as national security adviser, taps him for UN role

 
President Donald Trump says United States National Security Adviser Mike Waltz will leave his post and be nominated to serve as ambassador to the United Nations.
 
Mr. Waltz created the Signal group chat to which a journalist was inadvertently added, where high ranking officials planned military strikes in Yemen.
 
Trump's team previously downplayed the security risks and said no classified material was shared in the chat. 
 
The move comes in the same week that Trump celebrated his first 100 days in office. 
 
The UN ambassador positioned that Trump says he'll nominate Mike Waltz for will require confirmation by the US Senate.
