President Trump Fires NSA Director General Timothy Haugh

President Trump has fired the director of the National Security Agency (NSA), General Timothy Haugh. This decision comes amid concerns that the Trump administration may be exerting pressure on intelligence services to align with its positions. The NSA already monitors American communications in various ways, but this surveillance has so far been secondary to its primary mission of monitoring the rest of the world. The replacement of Haugh with a loyalist could redirect the NSA's surveillance apparatus towards domestic targets.
