If this really was a national security issue, shouldn't the editor of "The Atlantic" be held for treason for disclosing the text on "X"?

I think the question is whether what was being discussed really was so super dooper secret or not. Were they actual plans, or just spitballing?

That's the problem...they all say it wasn't top secret but when asked crucial questions their response was *I don't recall*..

Let me summarize for those new to the performance:
(1) The CIA special ops group, organized the Signal App operation. That's how Goldberg got in.
(2) Jeffrey Goldberg held the story until the day before the scheduled SSCI hearing.
(3) The SSCI uses the hearing to attack the Trump officials at the top of the critical silos.
Why?
The CIA black ops group doesn't like the Trump Ukraine and Trump Russia policy.
Watch. You'll see.

A point of clarity: so, we don't have months and months of this again, before people catch up.
Jeffrey Goldberg has no factual information that Mike Waltz invited him to the group Signal chat.
**Goldberg only knows a device, presumably attributed to Mike Waltz, added his user account to a Signal chat.**
From that data point, Goldberg espouses Waltz added him.

That's fascinating.... From that narrative, it sounded like the MSM might have been privy to the entire Biden intelligence network, the whole 4 years. That is really the question that needs to be asked.

This looks like a set up....but as they were talking didn't anyone ask who JG was on the chat?....these are all from Intelligence Agencies for crying out loud...I guess I expect more from these people...surely most had to say to themselves *who is JG*...and the chat should have stopped then...

The current national security/war cabinet needs to reaquaint itself with the SCIF and use it. After four years of Biden, Chinese balloons and lawfare, they should know better than to use electronics for anything until there's been a complete, indepth review of systems and those with access to them.

They were asked about using SCIF...no clear answer from them...one of the participants on this chat was in Moscow for crying out loud...so you know the Russians were listening too...

Democrats think they found "The" issue they have been looking for to beat up on the Admin. But in reality this thing doesn't have legs.

This will be dropped as soon as it's proven Biden's security protocols were used --- and that they've been tossed out.

No different than Hillary's illegal mail server.

Both are instances of top Government officials using unauthorized, unofficial technology platforms of convenience to transmit and receive sensitive Official Government communications.

Those at the top can't be bothered to follow the rules they make for the rest of us.

all this looks to me like a red herring. Set up a fake, blatantly insecure chat room to "leak" information of dubious accuracy and see who runs with it.

And we have our answer.

Trump reveals who was behind Signal text chain leak
The president said the inclusion of a journalist in the group chat had 'no impact at all' on the strike in Yemen
By Emma Colton Fox News
Published March 25, 2025 12:02pm EDT

President Donald Trump revealed that a staffer with national security advisor Mike Waltz's office included the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic in a Signal group chat with senior Trump officials who were discussing plans for an upcoming strike on Houthi rebels in Yemen.

"It was one of Michael’s people on the phone. A staffer had his number on there," Trump told NBC in a phone interview when asked how Jeffrey Goldberg, the Atlantic's editor-in-chief, was added to the high-profile chat.

The president added that Goldberg's inclusion in the group chat had "no impact at all" on the strike in Yemen.

Goldberg published an article on Monday detailing how he was added to a Signal group chat on March 11, reportedly dubbed "Houthi PC Small Group," which included high-profile government officials, including Waltz, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Vice President JD Vance and others.

Signal is an encrypted messaging app that operates similarly to texting or making phone calls, but with additional security measures that help ensure communications are kept private to those included in the correspondence.

Those in the group reportedly discussed targeting the Iran-backed terrorist group, the Houthis, in Yemen, including timing.

Throwing a staffer under the bus, in what we hope is a new era of Harry Truman like accountability?

That was pretty Biden of him.

Karoline Leavitt Exposes Journalist Who Infiltrated DoD Group Chat, Crushes ‘Sensationalist’ Story

Trending Politics News
By Mark Steffen
March 25, 2025

The Atlantic reporter who infiltrated a secretive group chat between members of the Trump administration’s national security team relied on “sensationalist” claims to push his bombshell story, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt asserted on Tuesday.

In a fiery missive on X, President Donald Trump’s top spokeswoman said Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg is “well-known” for adding “sensationalist spin” to his stories. The outlet often serves as a punching bag for conservative influencers and reporters who regularly ridicule its headlines and even suggest some of their own in viral social media posts that make it hard to discern fact from fiction.

On Monday, Goldberg reported that he was inadvertently invited to a group Signal chat by White House National Security Advisor Mike Waltz where U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Vice President J.D. Vance, and others were said to be discussing imminent plans to bomb Houthi rebels in Yemen. Goldberg wrote that Hegseth shared “war plans” outlining the attack approximately several hours before it occurred.

“What I will say, in order to illustrate the shocking recklessness of this Signal conversation, is that the Hegseth post contained operational details of forthcoming strikes on Yemen, including information about targets, weapons the U.S. would be deploying, and attack sequencing,” Goldberg said, referring to Hegseth.

Not so, replied Leavitt.
