Yesterday Mike Waltz claimed that Goldberg hacked their system. Today he is taking responsibility for this. Maybe someone told him a breach of security was much more serious than an inadvertent mistake.

Maybe someone told him the receipts were published in a popular national magazine (circ > 1 mil) and on EVERY social media platform, showing that HE ADDED GOLDBERG to the chat? 🤔
Or he realized that MAGA would fight for a public investigation as they would think it would take the big bad journalist down, and the last thing Waltz wants is transparency.
Mike Waltz was, clearly, told, "Look, if you allege that someone hacked into such a sensitive conversation, there is going to have to be an investigation, which will prove you lied. If you just say 'Oopsie' it might just go away."
The fact that he didn't know this already speaks volumes
I was at YT and some of them screamed about Afghanistan withdrawal under Biden. WTF. What is it about Afghanistan? Or there are whataboutism crowds, Hunter Biden laptop crowd. It was so hilarious watching MAGAts do mental gymnastics on this news.

They are both bad but no one was believing his lie - it made him look dumber than he is - I mean we all have cell phones - but actually being hacked on an app they should not have been using I guess proves the security breach was their careless fault
Even if Goldberg did hack their system (which he clearly did not) then that might actually be a worse indictment than a stupid (career ending) mistake.
I mean if a journalist is able to hack them - then what information are China and Russia now privy too?
Even more compelling reason trump’s team of national defense misfits are completely unqualified and unfit for office. Waltz sets up a chat group to discuss classified military operations on a commercial messaging service that he believes can be readily hacked. This idiot is National Security Advisor
yep. #CISA folks were most likely informing him that a full investigation is needed. It will be messy and difficult. Legal penalties will apply because getting hacked or treason actions are a major problem.
So he recanted to avoid a larger, more scandalous result.
Waltz is just another of Trump's toadies who relies upon lying and deceit to get ahead. Waltz was too stupid to realize that there might be a transcript of his chat. Realizing he was caught in a lie, he fessed up!
Cavalier about security, sadly as expected. Consider: (1) Trump's mishandling classified documents at Mar-a-Lago; (2) passing secrets on open chat. This is life-and-death to military service members in battle, air recrews on mission, but these incompetents don't care.
He’s now accusing a journalist of being a computer hacker, and accusing him of a crime?Now, most definitely a defamation lawsuit, along with waltz, committing perjury? Then, backs off and takes the blame? Lol.

They purposely leaked a faked chat to one ‘Jeffrey Goldberg’ to convince you all that they’re bombing Yemen because of ‘shipping lanes’ and ‘Europe’.
They don’t want you to know they bombed kids in Yemen for Israel.

So why were you using it?
‘Uh mean we were breached or hacked!’

We need to do the same. Let's clear the benches.
We need every available person of good will with public speaking skills.
Speak out & stop the crazy.
