• US Oppn to grill the govt over the breach

- PATRICIA ZENGERLE

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP expressed support on Tuesday for his national security adviser, Michael Waltz, after a magazine journalist said on Monday that Waltz had accidentally included him in a discussion of highly sensitive war plans on the messaging app Signal.

"Michael Waltz has learned a lesson, and he's a good man," Trump told NBC News in a phone interview.

US senators were set to grill Trump's top intelligence officials on Tuesday about the apparent breach, which triggered outrage and disbelief among Democrats and national security experts.

Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, said in a report on Monday that Waltz unexpectedly added him on March 13 to an encrypted chat group on the Signal messaging app coordinating US action against the Yemen rebel group over its attacks on Red Sea shipping.
