The Signal:

One of President Donald Trump’s most trusted aides is leaving the White House after less than a year in the second Trump administration, marking one of the most significant departures yet from Trump’s inner circle.

Taylor Budowich — a longtime Trump loyalist who has been by the president’s side both in and out of government — will exit at the end of the month, officials confirmed to Fox News. As deputy chief of staff, Budowich oversaw personnel and messaging, effectively serving as a key bridge between Trump’s senior advisers and the wider administration.
