BREAKING: White House says that those who leaked the story about Pete Hegseth giving war plans to his family on Signal might be prosecuted.

So, the whistleblowing is the crime, not the crime itself.

The people who leaked about Pete leaking will be held to a different account than Pete?? ok. got it

They’re going to prosecute Hegseth then, right?

This White House would blame Anne Frank for being a whistleblower against the Nazis. They would have ICE go to her door and drag the girl out from her hiding spot.

jashleyphoto.bsky.social•3 days ago

So they prosecute those who tell the public that Hegseth is endangering our national security, but doesn’t prosecute the person who actually endangered our country? Cool…

Disgusting

Thats the way it’s always been. Whistleblowers go to jail or are exiled.

Sure let’s have an investigation into The Kegs behavior

They need to be removed! I’m sick of the lies!

ivybaby62.bsky.social•3 days ago

This entire regime is criminal!

That tracks perfectly for the new and improved USSA.

"Those who leaked the story"?
If they didn't put it on Signal to begin with, nobody would even have known. They r the source them self for LEAKING!
It is meant to be found, I mean come on accidentally put a person that happens to be a journalist in your group? On a commercial platform? 😶

Simply how things always work in authoritarian regimes.

Sorry, I know this is going to be OT, but it looks like they're taking a leaf out of how Australia prosecutes whistleblowers instead of those engaging in illegal acts.
This is a dangerous level for any democracy.

Welcome to Trumpstan!

jasonmendoza.bsky.social•3 days ago

Prosecuted for what? Sharing “unclassified” information? Discovery wlll be LIT. Bring it on.

emile507.bsky.social•3 days ago

Wait. I thought the Signal thing was a hoax.

pattijroque.bsky.social•3 days ago

Good grief!

lsmith1231.bsky.social•3 days ago

So the whistle-blower who exposed the sharing of classified information is the person who is being prosecuted and not the person who shared the classified information? Only in Trumplandia

Be it ever thus.

But Kristi’s purse got stolen. You got no solid proof now

It’s like how Al Capone killed a bunch of people but went to jail for tax evasion.

Yeop. I was a federal whistleblower re asbestos at the Arizona Biltmore Resort in 2003. I was fired the next day. There was a cover up by OSHA who blackmailed for 6-10 million (even bc 2 guys).
They ruined my life. Fu @robertstowe.bsky.social 3,500 minimum exposed to the worst asbestos 20 yrs✔️selves

gatecrasher777.bsky.social•3 days ago

Whistleblowers need to be strung up by their julians and get their assanges whipped.

dmvbizman.bsky.social•3 days ago

Wait, I thought this was an entirely unclassified conversation on a publicly available app used on people’s personal phones with Pete’s wife, brother, and personal lawyer?

They said they did nothing wrong.

So, what exactly is the crime they’re accusing the leaker of?

aapatm.bsky.social•3 days ago

Today, I have decided to STOP being stunned & start shaming republicans! How can ANYONE think that our federal government is leading us in a positive direction?

michaelcantin.bsky.social•3 days ago

Go read the article about him going after ActBlue and democratic fundraising. Seriously. The guy who accepts $$$ from Big Oil and the NRA. The guy who looks the other way as Musk bribes voters. Going after democratic fundraisers.

icefragrance.bsky.social•3 days ago

What crime are they guilty of, telling the truth??

2boutdoors2.bsky.social•3 days ago

Why am I surprised?
I guess if I witness a crime I better not call 911 or I might get arrested

mod1968.bsky.social•3 days ago

The crime, at least in Donny Doll Hand’s mind, is that he was embarrassed and made to look as if he had poor judgment in hiring his stooges.

steamymcsteamface.bsky.social•4 days ago

These Trumpers have no fucking clue what they’re doing.

Apparently having your nose up Trump’s ass doesn’t magically grant competence.

Hegseth is criminally negligent and needs to be put in prison.
