It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal *honor* to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.

Do these people look like the kind of people that feel guilty, remorse, regret, empathy?
@jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social could do right now is to release every last text on the thread
Because I'd wager they're itching to do it, just to make him an example of what they're willing to do.
republicans have no integrity
Oh sure Trump fired a few people who "brought him a cup of coffee once" but no one ever claims responsibility for themselves.😝
The modern GOP is kids in grownup suits.
Every day proving they are clear and present danger.
When alone in the gym with Schumer
Just ⚖️ sayin' 🇺🇸
One Rule for me, another rule for thee.
They took the jobs knowing full well none of them were qualified to do anything but harm. That was the only qualifier. Hurt the nation for billionaires.
I doubt politics anywhere have been pure.
Ditto the UK - years ago, when a male Tory MP was caught out having an extra marital affair he resigned immediately. Not now.
The problem with Trump and his executive office, they have no morals or conscience. 😬
If people die, they would simply sane-wash it.
Then, we never hold them accountable.
We just move to the next news cycle.
Buy a brand you can be proud of.
Perfect if you want no record of planning some nifty assassinations.
If Goldberg suddenly expires, someone needs to grab the signal servers and start digging. Because... because.
I think these guys are doing what they want and going back and telling Trump he gave the order.
I think Trump has just enough dementia to believe them, even though he doesn’t remember shit
Trump promised purges, wars and dictatorship.
This is not goat entrails we are looking at.
Trump said he would kill Americans, and he has. This year.
Greed/power is NOT the beating black heart of what ails my country.
Please try my short & snarky open letter on the matter.

“I didn’t know that.”
“That never happened.”
“OK, it happened but nothing was classified.”
“It was classified but nobody cares cause I won in a landslide.”
“You know Goldberg is a Democrat and he hacked into Hegseth’s app.”
Trump won't fire them
The media won't challenge them.
MAGA doesn't care.
Tomorrow Elon will do something horrible and everyone will focus on that.
Trump's supporters, while slightly fewer in number, are shrugging it off. Don't expect his base to demand accountability. They still think Hilary's emails were worse.
Like my BFF
Tells me:
“Honor is not a vegetable”
If "SignalGate" happened w/Harris at The Oval..? Heads would roll.
Waltz is someone else entirely.
That word isn’t in this administration’s vocabulary.
*Crickets...
(said this with a heavy heart)
We have wins literally every day, what are you talking about?

these are people that are so far behind Self-Serving
politicians we've known in the past it's frightening
they want to tear down the Federal Gov.
Actively working to bring us down.
Hegseth won't resign
either will Gabbard
Walz gets thrown under the bus, maybe
I think it died sometime in 1994
Really?
If there are no consequences for staging a coup on live television, there's never gonna be consequences period.
The Omen was "fine people on both sides". We've been past omens for a while.
That is crazy talk.
There is no honor among thieves, cheats, liars, grifters, and hypocrites.
Think about that.
It's a time after time high-success strategy born from the party's many previous scandals.
Look at how hard it was to remove Santos, and he was only just one of the many. Trump didn't fold.
Dems could learn.
What do you suggest?
"Fight fire with fire" sounds good, but what exactly does it mean?
Any ideas to #takedownfox that we are not already doing?

I couldn't open your link.
2. Insistently for a global divestment in all Musk-owned companies.
3. Use media influence to shame SCOTUS justices & complicit journalists.
Doesn't answer the "undignified" part though

Who is refusing to acknowledge it? He is compared to Hitler every day. There's nothing at all distasteful about pointing out his Nazi policies and demagoguery.
But everyone acknowledges all of these things, and talks about them all the time.
Is there someplace you are expecting to see this acknowledgement where you are not finding it?
Others are cursing too, if that's supposed to be the "undignified" part.
Lots of people are expressing "authentic condemnation".
We have all seen low-ranking military personnel sent to Federal prison for far, far less serious security failures.
Time fir im0eachments from top to bottom, clean them ALL THE HELL OUT OF HERE.

*crickets* I suppose.
And that is poor.
