    Reporting sez National SECURITY Advisor Mike Walz added the “press.”

    Hegseth later added all the military details. Then lied about it, thinking it was still his confirmation hearing.

    Not a single head will roll. America coming to an end near you.

    What a colossal group of idiots. And despite 326 congressional inquiries into Hillary gate, the principled GOP won't do a damn thing.

    Top Trump officials included The Atlantic editor in group chat about plans to bomb Yemen

    Elect a clown, expect a circus...

    Everyone involved is at fault. Would be curious to hear what the conversation was at the point that Mike Waltz added the press. If it was just talking about folks brackets then he didn’t do anything wrong. But I’m guessing it wasn’t about that.

    If you’re not leaking top secret war plans, then that means you hate America

    I think the criticism here is unjust. Imagine how hard it must be to remember he’s no longer a Fox News anchor.

    He was setting up a working group and included the journalist. There was no conversation beforehand. But the text chain was specifically to discuss the plans for bombing Yemen across department and discuss Intel related to it.

    I’m sure most of you won’t remember this — probably before your time— but there was once this woman, I believe her name was Hilary. And she had this laptop …. Yada yada yada … Trump won the election.

    Why else would you go outside of secured government devices for this and use some goofy private chat service? To circumvent any FOIA requests. Same reason Hillary did all her fundraising activity on a private server.

    Very likely could just be that secure communications are more inconvenient. Why spend the time to go to a SCIF when you can just coordinate on your cell phone from wherever you're at?

    Nope. Pretty sure this was an active choice to avoid those government devices and network. Why would they do that? Because they're creeps and they're shady. These are the actions of shady operators.

    Do I really have to answer this for you?

    If I do, then we have nothing to discuss.

    Until something happens as a result of their malfeasance. Then the heads will roll. Or maybe it will be last cigarettes and blindfolds. Fingers crossed.
