    In today’s episode of “The left was right about this administration being a predictable dumpster fire”, we bring you example # 999 of why you shouldn’t hire unqualified buffoons to run the government. Embarrassing, but not surprising or unexpected at all.

    I would argue DeSantis and Haley were right too, as they were pretty much saying the same thing.

    everyone of them on that unsecured app on nongovernmental phones should be prosecuted and locked up.

    that is what would happen to the rest of the equal animals, but apparently these animals are more equal than others

    the moment a foreign operative arrives on foreign soil their phone is tapped. If Tulsi was overseas on a nonsecure, non issued phone, it was compromised.

    Anyone with a semblance of a functioning brain who isn’t indoctrinated in the Trump cult saw this coming, but the MAGAs will never admit to being wrong. Can’t wait to hear how they spin this one.

    It's typically weak, but they're trying. Apparently Waltz is going to be the fall guy (if there is one) for "accidentally pressing a button".

    me too and based upon what Trump has done since his election, I am hopeful he will do so- though I would not be surprised if there were some redactions concerning the actual planning of the mission

    Let's judge it for it's content and not kill the messenger. . . . So, back to my point about Waltz being tabbed as the fall guy for this if someone needs to be sacrificed. Literally the only thing I gleaned from that article.

    if a dem was in charge you would be losing your chit and you know it.

    and then there is this nugget,

    apparently they allow their staff to sue their phones with this info on it..non-authorized use of secure lines or non-secure liens transmitting top secret info? of course, there is ZERO reason to believe anything DT says is true

    "It was one of Michael's people on the phone. A staffer had his number on there," Trump said.

    Who sent what isn't even that consequential. Everyone on that chat, outside of the journalist , is negligent

    Lots of righteous indignation from a group who had no issue with zero accountability from your admin when 13 marines and sailors were killed at Abbey gate and countless billions of operational equipment left behind. The same equipment we see Hamas and hezbollah using. Over what ? A text message about airstikes on Houthi's which had zero operational effect. Should whoever messed up be reprimanded….of course, but it’s just nonsense that this has any effect on the safety or the operation itself. Compared to a true botched withdrawal which was the beginning of the end of Biden admin. But sure. Let’s get spun up over a text.

    Who’s the “he” in this? I haven’t seen anything to suggest that Pete set up a working group and added the journalist

    Probably because it was more convenient and they were lazy. FOIA has no bearing

    Shouldn’t be. Phones we issue are locked down and don’t allow the installation of apps.

    Mike Waltz set up the group. Hegseth sent out the plans.

    Context. It’s unknown if the chat was classified prior to the journalist being added.

    Gabbard should not have been confirmed.

    Meaning that it is highly likely this was on their personal cell phones. Some of them working off networks in foreign countries.
