Vice President JD Vance said Friday that he and President Donald Trump are “standing behind” their national security team in the wake of the Signal chat scandal, adding that national security adviser Mike Waltz has taken responsibility and an update on the internal investigation should be coming “soon”, SİA reports citing CNN.
“I think we’ll get an update soon. Look, we take it very seriously. We all accept that a journalist should not have been invited into the chat, and members of the administration, including my dear friend Mike, have taken responsibility for it,” Vance said at a news conference in Greenland, accusing the media of having an “obsession” with covering it.
“If you think you’re going to force the president of the United states to fire anybody, you’ve got another thing coming. President Trump has said on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday, on Thursday, and I’m the vice president saying it here on Friday, we are standing behind our entire national security team,” he added.
