So the question should be who is this guy Alex Wong? Well he is Mike Walz' National Security Advisor. But wait Who is Mike Waltz, the national security adviser who added the journalist to Signal group chat. So after all that the President himself Donald Trump said he is confident in his national security adviser, Mike Waltz a day after a report detailed how he inadvertently added a journalist to a Signal group chat discussing Yemen war plans. Trump told NBC News on Tuesday that Waltz "has learned a lesson and is a good man."
The president brushed off concerns about the group chat on the messaging app, which reportedly included operational details about war plans in Yemen and mistakenly included The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg, according to a report from Goldberg published Monday. Trump told NBC News that Goldberg's presence in the chat had "no impact at all" and called the whole ordeal "the only glitch" his administration has faced since Inauguration Day.
Goldberg said he received a Signal invitation from Waltz, who was a member of the group chat. Goldberg said the group chat also appeared to include Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, among others. White House National Security Council spokesman Brian Hughes told ABC News on Monday that the group chat "appears to be authentic."
Trump tapped Waltz, a former Florida congressman, to be his national security adviser in November, calling him "a nationally recognized leader in national security" and an "expert on the threats posed by China, Russia, Iran, and global terrorism." Waltz is a China hawk and was the first Green Beret elected to Congress. During the presidential campaign, Waltz proved to be a key surrogate for Trump, criticizing the Biden-Harris foreign policy record. Elected to the House in 2018, Waltz sat on the Intelligence, Armed Services and Foreign Affairs committees.

He also serves on the House China Task Force with 13 other Republicans. Before running for elected office, Waltz served in various national security policy roles in the George W. Bush administration in the Pentagon and White House. He retired as a colonel after serving 27 years in the Army and the National Guard.
Laura Loomer did a deep dive on this guy...
- Alex Wong, the Chinese Deputy National Security Advisor is married to U.S. Attorney Candice Chiu Wong, a Chinese Woman who was one of the key attorneys involved in PROSECUTING J6ers.
- Alex’s wife, Candice Chiu Wong, worked under the Obama admin and the Biden admin as an Assistant United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, where she led the Violence Reduction and Trafficking Offenses Section for more than two years.
- She was involved in the prosecution of many J6ers during the Biden regime, under which she was nominated to become a Member of the United States Sentencing Commission. Additionally, Candice Chiu Wong served as a Law Clerk to Obama-appointed US Supreme Court Justice Sonia M. Sotomayor!
- Making matters worse, Alex Wong worked for Covington & Burling which is one of the law firms the President recently stripped of its security clearance and terminated all of their government contracts via Executive Order on February 25th, 2025. Trump accused Covington LLP of being involved in the weaponization of government.
- Given the Chinese connections, it really makes you wonder if Jeffrey Goldberg was added to the Trump Signal chat on purpose as part of a foreign opp to embarrass the Trump admin on behalf of China.
SIDE NOTE:
Jeffrey Goldberg said a “war plan” was released that contained “precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing.”. THAT WAS A LIE. What Goldberg actually released something he could have shared from the start—is not a “war plan.”
There are no names, no specific targets or locations, and no coordinates. It basically just says some F-18s will strike a terrorist somewhere today. But I do think that Alex Wong needs to be investigated and terminated at the very least. IF he's guilty of actually being a CCP Spy he well should get the full extent of the law... The rest is a nothing burger.
