Journalist publishes every damning text from war plans leak
Journalist publishes every damning text from war plans leak
Trump’s top officials insisted no classified information was included in the chat, but defense sources now contradict that claim.
Summary
The Atlantic has published unredacted attack plans (non-paywall link) shared in a Signal group chat of senior Trump officials, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and DNI Tulsi Gabbard.
Editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg released the full texts after officials denied sharing war plans or classified information, arguing transparency was necessary amid accusations of dishonesty.
The leaked messages detailed U.S. military strikes targeting Houthis in Yemen.
You're viewing a single thread.
Lmao Waltz saying he is going to try and figure out "how the heck he got into this room" and then the first text screenshot literally says "Michael Waltz added you to the group" is so goddamn hilarious to me.
Oh wow, proof it also has disappearing messages enabled.
I don't know the legality of the messages being able to disappear, but the fact it's enabled is a clear cut violation of the law.
For any other administration, this would be a catastrophe. For the Trump administration, it's Thursday.
Eh, they could have had a service forwarding the messages to a database running on one of the group's member's devices.
Yeah sure thing. The guy who has already been caught mishandling classified documents... The guy who literally ate the notes from a meeting he had with Putin so nobody would see them.
Right.
Holy crap that’s insane I had to look it up and yes apparently that happened. wtf there’s so much news I can’t keep up
And that's from last term when things were more chaotic, with less focused effort towards dismantling everything.
Lol. That would be uncharacteristic at this point. They need to show us the servers before I believe that
They can't. The server is in the basement of a friend's house (not a government employee) because they got a really good deal on it!
Buttery males?
And how likely do you think that is? Given the clown show that has gotten them to this point.
It wouldn't have required any of the main player's active effort. The supporting security establishment could have set up such a system.
Again, how likely do you think that is?
I'd give it a 20-30% likelihood. We shouldn't rule it out.
you would think they would then be using a government hosted platform, instead of signal, but i guess that makes too much sense.
Don't worry, given their apparent compliance to threat-model, it's most likely stored somewhere on an adversarial database. Compliance by idiocy.
Oh, yeah, these guys sat in front of the Senate yesterday and flatly lied about all of it. At the end, one of the Democrats said that it wouldn't be long before they had the transcripts, which would be compared to their testimony, analyzed for discrepancies, and legal options considered.
The MAGA Nazis aren't really worried, they know there is no possible way that HitlerPig, Big Booby Bondi, or the Nazi legislature will do anything about it, and even if they did, HitlerPig would just pardon them, but at least it's one more egregious national security lapse/lie that the Dems can beat them with forever.
IF the Dems ever show the guts to fight back.
If they get pardoned, they can no longer plead the 5th, so that should be fun!
But the judges won't jail them for ignoring them anyways.
This is some real old white guy, how did this get here i am not good with computer energy lmfao
Same vibe as that flat-earther in Behind the curve who ran this laser experiment that ended up proving the curvature of the earth and, upon seeing the evidence, went like "Huh, how about that, guess we gotta analyze the data some more to see what's going on."
Grandpa googles "google" to get to Google
The other thing I noticed up there is that it says "MAR added MAR". Not sure if those are two people with the same Signal/Contact name/intials, or how that happened (as a Signal user, best guess is group link but that is also would be in the log at the top)
