It sounds to me like this journalist got added to the room somehow, but it wasn't by any member of the Administration, at least not deliberately.

Waltz already admitted that it was him.

Too arsed to read all 11 previous pages, but here's a section of the chat transcript. Surely, there's no way that info like this could be used by our targets?

"1215et: F-18s LAUNCH (1st strike package),” Hegseth wrote in the chat.
“1345: Trigger Based F-18 Strike Window Starts (Target Terrorist is @his Known Location so SHOULD BE ON TIME—also, Strike Drones Launch (MQ-9s).”

Don't worry.

 

Pete Hegseth will get to the bottom of this...

 

If it's a champagne bottle. 😄

A real man admits when he was wrong, especially when faced with the reflection of his own compromised moral compass beneath Trump’s unraveling façade.

Democrats tried to warn everyone these were incompetent freaks, wackjobs and drunks.

 

But noooo...

Joe Applephone Tesla Sixpack believed the Timeshare condominium salesman when he said he was going to bring down the price of groceries on Day One. 😂

Ditto and what happened to the felons YOUR FIRED mantra now’s a good time to use it.

[gargamon]

Waltz will obviously be thrown under the bus. He clearly doesn't fit Trump's requirements for senior staff. After all, he took responsibility for his mistake. He didn't point fingers at anyone else. Clearly incompatible with Trump's modus operandi.

Yeah, IF and I emphasize IF the congress and IG's do a valid investigation not only of this chat call but how many chat calls like this have occurred since these amateurs took over their posts.  But seeing as how they blatantly lied before the Congressional hearing until it forced the magazine to publish even more of the chat and shows just how uncaring and no feelings of wrong doing by this crowd and Trump.  These people are a really dangerous crowd for Americans IMHO and since they all have money they couldn't care less than they do now.  Even if kicked out, how would they suffer?  Not at all.  Unless some heads roll then it will only get worse in my opinion.  I hope the original classification put on the military strike by the pentagon is revealed so that we can see just how terrible this breadh was.  I am  sure the local offices of Russia and China are sorry this happened as they will now lose this source.  But then again, since Trump is the President, he will probably just continue to pooh pooh it.  I did notice that some of the administration said "well  Biden and his folks used SIGNAL, but then some lower level folks left over from his administration clarified that no classified was allowed by the Biden folks on this type signal.  Scary for sure.  Even if the Russians or China saw the info, they most likely would not alert the Huti folks as it would mean that this SIGNAL chat line was compromised and the IDIOTS might begin using a really secure means of communication.

Nice. They fopund their issue.

 

What are they gonna say when the real facts come out.

 

BTW, what about that chat was classified. Seems more like a play by play for someone maybe watching.

[LosLobo]

The White House says NO WAR PLANS and that it was unclassified, but now it could be an ATTACK PLAN—and maybe it is classified.
 

They also stated No locations. No sources & methods.
 

The name of the clown show? The Houthi PC Small Group. Blind Freddy could have worked out where the target was.
 

Any competent military analyst could have extrapolated launch and target locations using carrier positions, missile speeds, flight times, and operational patterns. The pieces were all there.
 

Meanwhile, when Envoy Witkoff joined the chat, he was with Putin—but now denies he had his phone.
 

Possible Putin asset Tulsi Gabba? — overseas, but conveniently can’t remember where.
 

Hegseth? Off pumping up his warriors somewhere overseas, while dodging questions about why he put them in harm’s way—and avoiding under-oath testimony at the Senate Intel Hearing.

And Trump? Yesterday, he categorically denied it was classified. Today? He is not so sure.

Nothing to see here, right?

Clearly classified.

War plans.

Top Secret.

"Absolutely classified."

We all know it.

You've gone to the dark side. 🧘‍♀️

All your information is coming from MSM right, not lime they'd purposely misquote or clipnout of context, we haven't seen that ever with regards to Trump since 2017.

Just another over sensationalised story to get the thrkeys squawking...  like any other day in the news cycle

Who classified it, Cletus? You? 

 

Bet if Goldberg is indicted for espionage you will claim it isnt classifed.

God the slackjaw Jeniuses don't understand how the US National Security apparatus works and their posts make them look like a 5 year old with a plastic sherrif badge, so they know all about law enforcement.

 

Goldberg was invited to the illegal chat by Walz, a Trump advisor. 

 

Do you have two functioning brain cells to register that fact?

 

Hold up one finger for yes. 🤣

Frank, I can think for myself. I personally watched the last two Senate Intel hearings on C -Span and all the actors' direct quotes either live or on video no interaction with MSM, unlike your propaganda from Fox, RT and Beijing Daily.

Says who? Show us the results of the Investigation. 

 

Of course, unlike any time in the Biden admin, Walz has "taken responsibility" because he set up the chat. Better watch what he said, and of course, he isnt a known liar like Goldberg.

 

Hey, do you discount completely Goldberg engaging in criminal behavior?

 

I bet you couldnt even show us anything that would be considered "secret" by the way. Also, hear anything from the Houthis recently?

[jas007]

I still think nothing much is going to come from any of this. At the News conference where he signed the order about auto tariffs, Trumps was asked about the Signal thing.  He didn't seem to think it was a big deal, and he expressed the opinion that the attacks were very successful.  In other words, it's over, no harm done, move on.

It's not criminal to accept an invitation.

 

The Trump administration lied and said the highly classified and sensitive information was "not classified".

 

So Goldberg released more of the chat to prove they're lying and it was highly classified.

 

So which is it?  You can't have it both ways.

 

Once again it's too late to ask for your money back for your law degree from Kmart because they're bankrupt. 😭

So you know for a fact he was invited? Tell us how you know, and who invited him?

 

I would assume a Law Degree from Kmart, cheap as it might be, would be far superior to your degree in Message Board Trolling and Misinformation.

Goldberg published the chat where Walz invited him.  Two brain cells are required for this.  Put down whatever you're holding with your right hand when you think about Trump putting kids in cages. Maybe that will free up the other one. 😀

In other words, you dont know. Got it.

 

Are you snidely accusing me of masturbating over deportations? Dont have the guts to come out and say it? How childish and immature.

Trump only offered you the blue pill. Are you sure that’s the reality you want to stick with?

[sqwakvfr]

From what I saw it looks like Hegseth actually stated the start time of an airstrike on the chat.  From the start I have stated Hegseth should not be SecDef because he has not displayed the maturity  the job requires.  Technically he is a Major in the IRR (Individual Ready Reserve) AKA inactive reserve but who cares this does not mean "jack".  This is how battle plans or all classified information are disussed:

 

1 In a SCIF (Sensitive Comparmented Information Facility) and with those people who are cleared and have a need to know.  Certainly not on a commercially available and unsecure messaging app

2. Through secure email on the DOD SIPRNet system and again with those who are cleared and have a need to know. Also, who were the 19 members of the Houthi Group on Signal? 

 

Hegseth is suppose to know this.  Even if the Atlantic journalist was inadvertently added to the chat the violation of NISPOM has occurred because the Signal app is not approved for secure US Government communications.  Even the Agriculture Department would not be cleard to use Signal to discuss government business.  

 

Someone has to go.  Let's see if Trump has the sense to fire someone?  I doubt it.  At least Hegseth can go back to Fox&Friends and take part in hot dog eating contests on the weekends. 

[Eric Loh]

US allies are looking at this bunch of clowns and amateurs handling the sensitive intelligence sloppily are wondering if they trust US to protect their secrets as they bound to protect theirs. They are astonished and worried just how the Trump and his administration are downplaying the leak that will have implication for broader intelligence sharing among allies in the future.

Not to mention the fact that Witkoff was in Russia with his own phone, connected to the chat.
