FLAG: Top Trump officials including JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and Tulsi Gabbard planned military strikes on Yemen's Houthis in a Signal messaging group — a group to which they accidentally added The Atlantic editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg.

I imagine it will soon be a crime to "make Trump look dumb" or "display evidence of law breaking" in the Trump administration.
Do not misfire here.
'Accidentally' is not a word I would use to describe their intent, but I like your assumption of their innocence. It's so Contitutional and early 2024.
I want to see… @senatedemocrats.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social

All over all media outlets and socials screaming about the illegality of this.
These people cosplaying at running our government are so goddamn stupid.

NEVER. It’s a FELONY.
1. Contact your reps and make sure you encourage them to vote to remove Hegseth and re-instate Lloyd Austin.

2. Stay on track. They're still coming for our Social Security.

as if any of that had any meaning in this administration
New sign that we are bombing Houthis!
This is just one reason why no Democratic senators should have voted to confirm ANY of these idiots.
Somebody from Liar Dictator Trump and His Nazis Administration need to be Fired, Resign or Impeach!

No accident.
The fact they included a journalist - who by the way could have sat quiet - means they might have also - in some other thread unbeknownst to the press - included adversaries or sympathizers.
Heads should roll.
This is ridiculous?
How can we have these eejits there?
We all know WHY we choose Signal.
I didn't mean to rob the bank, it was an accident.
I drove drunk, but it was an accident.
I beat my wife, but it was an accident.
I didn't mean to rape that girl, my penis accidentally went into her vagina.
We must assume that Putin, Xi, Iran & N Korea have been reading their mail.
Lives could be at stake even now.
They are breaking the law regardless of inadvertently including a reporter! That’s just the icing on the cake!
Also down the chain of kidnapping people and throwing them into foreign prisons
Also, pentagon information does not belong in a text chain—ever!
You're on your own. Help ain't comin'.

My job requires me to pass security training annually.
Not just participate. PASS (+80%). We have to prove we aren’t going to jeopardize security.
You would think cabinet level admin members would KNOW what is and is not legit. Rubio and Vance were senators.
