Gen. Timothy Haugh, head of NSA and Cyber Command, is fired
Gen. Timothy Haugh had just last week testified on Capitol Hill about the Signal leak in which a journalist had been added to a group chat with high-ranking members of the Trump administration.

Haugh's perceived close ties to retired Gen. Mark Milley — who served as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the Trump and Biden administrations — were a strike against him, two sources told CBS News.
Mr. Trump and Milley had a public falling out over multiple incidents.
A source familiar with the discussions and a senior intelligence official told CBS News the administration is considering splitting the NSA and Cyber Command into discrete entities.
Himes said in a statement he was "deeply disturbed" by the decision.
"I have known General Haugh to be an honest and forthright leader who followed the law and put national security first — I fear those are precisely the qualities that could lead to his firing in this Administration," Himes said.
