Witkoff had no national security experience, and yet he's the point man on the Iran nuclear negotiations. He's also the main negotiator in the U.S. efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war. So at this point, the Trump administration still feels like it's working out some of these arrangements on the fly.

Yeah, Hegseth said reporters must now be escorted by Pentagon officials when they leave the area inside the Pentagon designated for the media. This reverses decades of policy where reporters could move about in the non-classified parts of the Pentagon and generally had pretty good access to officials. Hegseth has taken a number of moves to limit contact between journalists and military officials.

The Pentagon Press Association, which represents journalists covering the Pentagon, said it, quote, appears to be a direct attack on the freedom of the press and America's right to know what its military is doing. I'll note the Pentagon has had only one formal press briefing in four months under this new administration, and Hegseth didn't take part in that one.

So Trump plans to nominate Waltz to become the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Now, Vice President J.D. Vance tried to downplay any sense of turmoil. In an interview on Fox News, he said Waltz was being given a new position for which he seemed better suited.

So still, Trump wouldn't be doing this if he wasn't unhappy with Waltz's performance in some way. And this U.N. job is seen as a bit of a consolation prize. Now, Waltz took responsibility for accidentally adding a journalist to that now infamous Signal group chat back in March. And that was probably one contributing factor to his move. And yet, did he make the same misstep this week?

At Tuesday's cabinet meeting, a Reuters photographer was there. He took a photo sort of over the shoulder of Waltz, and it showed Waltz using Signal on his phone. And in addition to this, Waltz has had some policy positions that seem a bit out of sync with Trump. Before he joined Trump's team, he was very tough on Russia and supportive of Ukraine in contrast to Trump.

So this was probably a factor as well.

Yeah, I think the first thing Rubio is going to need to do is clone himself because he's going to have to be in two places at once. The Secretary of State is in constant motion, traveling from one foreign capital to the next. In contrast, the national security advisor is usually quite close to the president. His natural habitat is the White House and the Situation Room in particular.
