A judge ordered the Trump regime to preserve all Signal text messages from the war plans chat. This is the sort of swift action we need from the courts right now. I have no doubt that the regime deleted the messages already. Luckily, The Atlantic’s Editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, has a full copy. - ThreadSky

Who knows if they’re actually complying, but yes.

robingilbert.bsky.social•8 days ago

I agree that the chat has been deleted. Trump administration doesn't like to follow court orders/decisions

Aren't ALL communications between cabinet members, potus, vp and staff recorded and stored? How often have they used Signal in the past? Can Signal retrieve past group chats?

… bis er aus dem Fenster fällt oderTee trinkt….

He has a full copy of that exchange. It's likely there were more covered by the order.

The question is what will Congress do about this? Can you imagine if this happened during Obama's term?

I thought JG left the chat before it was over? And was invited after it started?

itsalwayssomethin.bsky.social•8 days ago

They need to be told to preserve all FUTURE such transcripts as well. They won’t stop using Signal. They’ll simply delete faster and have someone pour over the list of attendees.

barbiejo1.bsky.social•8 days ago

Ordered, but they won't.

The judiciary is barely hanging on and is the only thing that is keeping this democracy from totally unraveling! Not sure how much longer the judiciary can hold it together with Trump attacking judges that don’t rule in his favor! Authoritarianism!

thats the whole point of them not following the security protocols and all information needs to be given/logged in the ‘Archive Agency’- they dont follow any rules at the WH- and use ‘Signal’ instead so all illegals can be deleted after a week!

'Trump has spent his whole adult life using the courts as the key to his business model…either frivolously suing anyone who crosses him… or filing an endless string of frivolous motions to delay, delay, delay when he’s on the other side of the ‘vs’...'

These people are too dumb to even save themselves. Cannot wait to watch them all sink into oblivion.

margeandfriday.bsky.social•7 days ago

My question on Signalgate is, WHY WASN'T TRUMP ON THAT CALL? Because, he wasn't. A bombing was not important to him? Was he golfing?

lizzyplum89.bsky.social•8 days ago

And yet they still continue to lie. These people are lower than scum. Power hungry and greed fueled losers.

vt-2342.bsky.social•8 days ago

As if they’ll abide….
So cute still playing by the rules…against the most corrupt group of traitors America has ever seen.
😡

They dont listen nor respect the courts

1colorflgrsshoppr.bsky.social•8 days ago

Unfortunately all they have to do is"forget" to save auto-deleting messages.

emparker1.bsky.social•8 days ago

Why do we keep discussing this like the letter of the law matters anymore?? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!!!

roger1958.bsky.social•8 days ago

They have to, or should, retain all communication under the official secrets Act!

schenkley.bsky.social•5 days ago

And we have no idea how many other offl meetings have no preserved records in the Natl Archives.

andreaauger.bsky.social•8 days ago

I thought the text from that app disappears after a time, no?

mandamoo2.bsky.social•8 days ago

It does! Very handy if you're planning on dodging future FOIA requests or have zero respect for the archives act. So lucky for us that he saved those screenshots! 😁

andreaauger.bsky.social•8 days ago

Right? Jeffrey Goldberg is my new favorite person!

mjthompson.bsky.social•8 days ago

And now, we all do too.

phebe108.bsky.social•7 days ago

Well, there are enough of the texts but Goldberg did leave before the end. So enough to convict them of wrongdoing!

rubytuesday72.bsky.social•8 days ago

Jeffrey Goldberg has screenshots of *this* particular chat thread... but what about all the ones on any number of other classified topics that took place before and after the one JG was added to?

There have to be way way more groups and conversations. There most def are !

john-y.bsky.social•7 days ago

it's obvious that this was not an isolated case of the use of Signal, so all messages, from every time it was used are required to be archived, but that'll never happen.

jeanene111.bsky.social•8 days ago

So far this judge seems to be the only one acting quickly.

sbpink.bsky.social•8 days ago

Doesn't mean they'll do it

harley2011.bsky.social•8 days ago

he will end up dead!!!

serviceman.bsky.social•8 days ago

I would hope signal would have the ability to restore it
