When these clowns are doubly incompetent, using Signal AND including a journalist, there is no way it is isolated.
Dumb is dumb is dumb.

Perhaps that was the feature and not the bug

WE NEED A MOTHERFUCKING COUNTER COUP JUNTA LED BY GENERAL MILLEY TO JAIL TRUMP. DONT WAIT. DO THIS NOW.

It was an accident to add the journalist. .. but not using signal.. they knew and know that isn't procedure.. but.. they don't care.. they can do whatever they want and it isn't archived.. plan old mafia regime...

peacefullyirene.bsky.social•3 days ago

I’m feeling the inclusion of the editor of The Atlantic was a bit of a divine intervention heads up to the public, since the Signal conversation would have disappeared, to avoid records requirements.

jhsnyder.bsky.social•3 days ago

"what are the chances ..."

This is a trick question, right?

denverjen.bsky.social•3 days ago

And the fact that the “president” doesn’t see this as a problem is highly disturbing. They removed all of the grown ups.

mikealee.bsky.social•3 days ago

Probably misdialed Putin.

peacefullyirene.bsky.social•3 days ago

Why isn’t Mike Waltz in front of Senate Intelligence Committee to answer whether The Atlantic editor’s number is in his contacts & it was a screw up, he entered a number incorrectly & who he meant to include, or was this purposeful inclusion to leak these deliberations? Get Jeffrey Goldberg in too.

Also it is revealed SUEZ canal USA uses 2% of time. So Y use any military assault?! Y start a war with nuked up IRAN?! Incompetence in trump hand picked cabinet! https://youtu.be/hg1jbbVl7nc?feature=shared

Actually, I think they do this all the time. Here is my article: https://www.freedomoverfascism.us/p/it-wasnt-a-mistake-it-was-sop-and?r=1o0sa

Everytime a Republican says this was "no big deal"

The immediate response should be "then you apologize to Sec Clinton right here, right now.

peacefullyirene.bsky.social•3 days ago

Lest we forget, HRC made a mistake with the private server, although rules were unevenly applied, but they never showed she was hacked & it wasn’t operational mission info. Apology please.

tree03.bsky.social•3 days ago

Except what they’ve done is so much worse.

Here's where you can politely suggest to Pam Bondi that appoint a special counsel to investigate #SignalGate: https://www.justice.gov/doj/webform/your-message-department-justice

Who would use emojis on a national security communication? WHO? And this guy is meeting w PUTIN?

melilaand.bsky.social•3 days ago

It reminds me of a bunch of high school BOYS texting

Scary and we will pay the consequences of their idiocy

martianuscapella.bsky.social•3 days ago

There is now a "Deepthroat II" in the White House.

That's WONDERFUL!

letsplaythisbro.bsky.social•3 days ago

If you really think this Administration has people who will not accept bribes from foreign governments you haven't been paying attention. They don't need to be intercepted they'll provide the transcripts for the right price.

jesseny.bsky.social•3 days ago

The chances are high but we'll never know, will we? I doubt this was the first thread set to self-destruct. These assholes don't want anything preserved.

doncomer.bsky.social•3 days ago

One path to isolationism: be so incompetent that other nations can't trust us. Can't share confidential information because the boobs in charge of the USA will blab like idiots. We don't step away from them so much as they step away from us to protect themselves from raging trumpian ineptitude.

andstillirise.bsky.social•3 days ago

99.9 percent chance

lunawlms.bsky.social•3 days ago

If they’re making mistakes like this, it’s fair to wonder what other security risks they’re overlooking.

catcherinthesky.bsky.social•3 days ago

Excellent. The chances are excellent!

cats-n-apples.bsky.social•2 days ago

Are these mistakes?

did Waltz deliberately include Goldberg, because he needed to blow the whistle on a regime so corrupt even he couldn't stand it?

trixiebelden75.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sky high

jseelug.bsky.social•3 days ago

And it's not the only time they all joined in a chat on Signal. Stay tuned...more to come

peacefullyirene.bsky.social•3 days ago

The double talk on that question at the hearing today was epic.

Secrecy and dishonesty are standard for GOP National Security appointees:

100%?

savedemocracynow.bsky.social•3 days ago

Project 2025 outlined to foreign intelligence agencies, in its training videos, how Trump appointees would use Signal illegally to discuss government business.

It’s literally in their videos.

vegaskat.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm pretty sure discussing anything via cellphone while in Moscow created one big-ass opening

Does anybody actually think Moscow doesn't know exactly what was posted in that chat?

I can almost guarantee Putin had the readouts in real time

mybits.bsky.social•3 days ago

Mike Waltz is turning out to be a bigger ass-kissing Yes-man than Little Mikey Mini Me Johnson.

raedeeton.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump wanted Canada thrown out of the 5Eyes.
Considering recent events, America must be thrown out.

annleftwapo.bsky.social•3 days ago

I feel truly bad for any military personnel and their families. I think they finally realize how little Trump thinks of them. But that information was out there, the fact is that Trump won 70% of the military vote.

They are using Signal in fucking Moscow, the Ruzzkies are reading it ALL anyway!!!

mcvlc.bsky.social•3 days ago

They are all incompetent. Count on a lot of fuckups!
On purpose, or not!

hppycmpr69.bsky.social•3 days ago

The funny thing is JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard and made runs for the Presidency in the past and this fuck up and lack of respect for U.S. Top Secret Classified information will fuck up any chance of them ever being elected in the future. STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES. YOU ARE AS DUMB AS TRUMP.

4lisac.bsky.social•3 days ago

why are we not seeing anyone reporting on how they are using the texting chaos to hide removing russian agriculture sanctions on a promise of a cease-fire that russia is not living up to?

mwcw213.bsky.social•3 days ago

What are the chances? It’s 100%. There are so many daily examples of incompetence in Trumps administration it’s literally too overwhelming to keep up with it all.

jackclark86.bsky.social•3 days ago

JG was not accidentally roped in. He was deliberately roped in. So whose fingerprints are on the lasso?

tinalee60.bsky.social•3 days ago

What are the chances, you ask? The chances are 100% that it has already happened and will happen again.

fermented-baker575.bsky.social•3 days ago

Maybe they could use META, it's encrypted end to end, I read. I'm sure it's all "NSA/CIA" approved. Oh wait, it doesn't have the disappearing message thing, does it? I hope that The Atlantic ediitor preserved his chat thread... bet your sweet arse the others didn't.

marialorraine.bsky.social•3 days ago

Not an isolated incident.

Especially with so many people involved and Hegseth’s day-drinking.

alflasher.bsky.social•3 days ago

tippsyybugg.bsky.social•3 days ago

Does anyone else feel like this emoji pattern is being read different than what is being admitted to

juliaredman.bsky.social•3 days ago

Its a certainty because they shouldn’t have been using signal in the first place.

evolvegracefully.bsky.social•3 days ago

Agreed! #KARMA
Hopefully it is the beginning of the end
-for the #TrumpAdministration
and current #Republicans

#RussianCollusion
#Hegseth #KARMA
Whole thing sounds like another
#TrumpPutinCollusion
Trump’s Russian contact
#Witkoff was in MOSCOW - and on this Signal Call!!!!
