#1 NYP: NSA director and Cyber Command chief, deputy fired in major shakeup at wiretapping agency: report
The director of the National Security Agency, Air Force Gen. Timothy Haugh, reportedly was fired Thursday from his post as the head of the agency.

Haugh’s removal as director of the NSA, the nation’s primary cyber espionage and electronic eavesdropping agency, comes on the same day at least three White House National Security Council staffers reportedly also were shown the door.

The ousted NSA director’s civilian deputy, Wendy Noble, was also let go Thursday, according to the Washington Post, citing current and former US officials.

#8 Any connection to the overheard Signal conversation?

An interesting question!

My first guess is a general housecleaning. But I would be interesting in hearing more. Like, why is the FedGov using a janky commercial app for semi-important conversations?
