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.

This is beyond bat shit nutz. We gotta throw these idiots in prison NOW. There’s so much more in those texts and 3 times more people involved. Also these dumb fucks lied under oath yesterday! Can’t be trusted, way under qualified and they’re territorial to this country. What happened to “common sense”? Always fucking Opposite Day with these clowns. Throw them in prison!
Ideally, yes, you're right. But... gestures broadly at United States judiciary it doesn't seem likely, unfortunately.
Time to start bringing the fight to them. https://www.mobilize.us/ Online voice doesn’t go as far. Start protesting.
Why do y'all want the people failing at being evil to be replaced with people who will competently be evil?
Why do you want the people DOING EVIL to NOT BE PUNISHED?
Because they'll be replaced by more competent evil people.
Or, perhaps, they won't. And perhaps, evil should be punished.
Or, perhaps, they won't.
I doubt Trump will be able to find someone less qualified than Hegseth or Micheal "added a journalist to my top secret chat" Walz.
Evil should be punished only when punishing it will not result in greater evil. Remember how the allies refused to assassinate Hitler?
You have a point. I've been wondering just how senate Democrats could possibly approve all these wildly incompetent boobs to these powerful positions. Maybe they want the worst people possible in these positions so that this administration implodes on itself.
But that could be giving them too much credit. It would mean they weren't entirely spineless...
Give them a trial first. And keep them in jail without bail until we get to their case.
