Trump’s Defense Secretary Accidentally Texted War Plans to The Atlantic: ‘I Didn’t Think It Could Be Real,’ Editor Says
On March 15, about two hours before America’s bombing in Yemen became publicly known, Hegseth — a former host on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends Weekend” — texted the Signal group the war plan, which included “precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing,” Goldberg wrote.

“I have never seen a breach quite like this,” Goldberg wrote. “It is not uncommon for national-security officials to communicate on Signal. But the app is used primarily for meeting planning and other logistical matters — not for detailed and highly confidential discussions of a pending military action. And, of course, I’ve never heard of an instance in which a journalist has been invited to such a discussion.”
He's in way over his head.

That's where I'm at with it. How do we even know it was legitimately them? Because it says their names on the accounts? I can have my "name" say anything I want on Signal.

Did the trump regime deny using Signal?

The Atlantic reporter thought it was fake too until the bombs started dropping on the Houthis as described in the messages.

Trump administration’s use of disappearing Signal messages to discuss military strikes not allowed under record law, experts say
In a 2023 memo, the Defense Department defined unmanaged apps, which also included platforms like WhatsApp and Apple iMessage, as those "NOT authorized to access, transmit, or process non-public DoD information."

Instead, the U.S. government requires officials to use approved classified communication systems, such as a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF), to discuss secret data.

In his report, Goldberg also said that some of the messages in the group chat utilized Signal's "disappearing messages" function, with some set to delete after one week and others after four weeks.

This has prompted concerns about potential violations of public records law by the U.S. officials.

One former government security leader, who asked for anonymity to discuss sensitive matters, told Fortune that all of the officials involved in the Signal group would have been required to preserve their communications under record laws.

The person added that none of the officials involved in the group chat had the authority to decide which of their communications did and didn't apply to public record laws.
2 issues with use of Signal app:
1) It isn't approved by the DoD to access, transmit, or process non-public DoD information.
2) Use of disappearing messaging is likely a violation of public records law.

Pretty similar stuff to what Hildamort was justifiably accused of.

In today's modern era, it's not that big of a stretch that an existing leak in the administration is being leveraged through creating a false narrative.

You get 5 or 6 Signal accounts, create a running conversation, then "accidentally" add a journalist to the account just before the operation is scheduled to begin.Image

1) They shouldn't be using Signal or anything like it for that information sharing in the first place.

2) Ignorance is not a defense when it comes to national security. The people involved in the information sharing are responsible for knowing who they're communicating with and what they're saying.

If there's a leak, then that should be investigated and the person responsible prosecuted but that does not absolve the participants of responsibility for their actions.

Anyone who defends/deflects for them but criticized Hildamort's email server (or vice versa) is a hypocrite.

Ohhhh. I'm only commenting here because I know this is going to blow up in the faces of these two. I want to find these comments again.

I also expect that nothing is going to happen to the idiots involved. It's just a testament to how far we, as a country, have fallen. (Christ, it's only been a few months) It would be nice if someone would find the floor so I can either get back into the stock market or join the rebellion.

Trump withdraws Stefaniks nomination for UN Ambassador.
….Sources told the outlet that House Republicans' razor-thin majority is a major factor in the current considerations, but Fox News Digital was also told that internal politics in Stefanik's home district are at play as well.

New York state's primary structure and the lack of GOP cohesion over choosing a candidate to run in Stefanik's place have led to concerns about a future special election there, two sources familiar with Empire State politics said…..

….."Nature abhors a vacuum. And you have 15 different county chairs, basically like three different regions of the state, pushing their own person. It's a really messy, ugly process," the source said. "When you have a party leader making a decision versus a primary where you can run a race — it's the kind of thing you have to wrap up quickly…..

Don't stop believing the Russian conspiracy.

The Associated Press has retracted a story it published Monday which wrongly claimed that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said that President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin were “good friends.”

“The Associated Press has withdrawn its story about U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard saying President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin ‘are very good friends.’ Gabbard was talking about Trump and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The AP will publish a corrected version of the story,” a statement from AP said.

Gabbard needs to answer direct questions and stop fomenting suspicion of her Russian ties.

She failed here.
