Thank you!!! That’s what I’ve been saying all day!! There’s no way that was an accident!! He invited him to the signal app and then he also added him to the group chat! It was intentional! He wanted them to be caught discussing classified information!
Let's not let Hegseth get away with Waltz taking the fall. This story is a decade long. They're still talking about Hillary and no info leaked with her, no info was classified or DOD when she sent it. This is 10k x worse.
That label has been used on different social media sites since shortly after the Atlantic article was published earlier this week. Maybe you just missed it
I firmly believe that Dump didn't want to be president again; he prefers to loll about his golf course & his gold-filled party palace. But he had to run again to stay out of prison. He was hoping to just let his Regime lackeys run the gov for him, primarily Leon, but he's finding that isn't so easy
The one thing we can count on with Trump is his self-absorbed paranoia winning every damn time! Waltz has the career lifespan of sushi on a sidewalk in FL in August.
Trump is going to lash out soon. I'm under the impression he is still processing what happened. But that is not going to take long. He will stab someone in the back to make this all go away.
Not even #Felon47 is buying this bullshit.
Waltz has denied ever having had contact with Goldberg, "This one in particular I’ve never met, don’t know, never communicated with, and we are looking into and reviewing how the heck he got into this room."
There will need to be a scapegoat and it likely won’t be Someone that will require Senate confirmation. And also if Trump can be convinced by others eager to save themselves that Waltz may be a leaker, my money is on Mike Walz
Yes he was better with his second wife. He and Lucy got on to the end of his life. On his deathbed Lucy called him and they told each other that they loved each other!
Of all the excuses, I think my favorite is Waltz claiming Goldberg may have hacked his way into the chat. Got it. So the chat in which you shared sensitive information of an impending attack with high level officials was hacked by a journalist?
This is true..however as others point out..he doesn't even know about this situation! "Why are you bringing up Hegseth? He's doing a great job
.he didn't have anything to do with this"
Witkoff texting on Signal while waiting for Putin in the Kremlin- on their wifi?? Talk about useful idiot. The FSB no doubt hacked and spread malware through all of their phones and into potentially all of US security systems. This is the greatest security threat. Confiscate phones, investigate now
Yeah..it's pretty hard not to connect the dots. But sadly, that's why he'll be gone. Not because he is a lying traitor and nincimpoop...I'll still take it, though. We need lying Nazi Hegseth and Putin ass-kisser Gabbard gone too.
Yup. Kinda weird to have so many journalists and lobbyists in your Venmo too.
Lots of money being passed around between journalists, lobbyists and politicians?
“A WIRED analysis shows that the Waltz account revealed the names of hundreds of Waltz’s personal &professional associates, including journalists, military officers, lobbyists, and others—information a foreign intelligence service or other actors could exploit for any number of ends, experts say.”
Probably at Trump’s instruction. Don’t be fooled by the pretence and lies that the mango muppet claims not to be in the know - the strings may be pulled by Putin but they go through orange Donny.
If the Dems were smart they’d start an info-blitz that hegseth and waltz are LEAKERS communicating with media. They are among the unnamed anonymous sources! Let the leopard machine eat their faces.
Using a network like Signal is 100% illegal in their line of duty because the law requires them to keep all traces of conversations for national archives.
Using Signal, besides not being sufficiently secure, allows them to automatically delete their conversations because they are punishable.
It seems like no-one has control of government secrets. They've paid billions for secure rooms and communication devices in the Whitehouse and yet Top secret documents (on paper) end up in the Khazi at Mar-a-lago, attack plans on free to download apps, and personal cell phones are in widespread use.
It is completely unacceptable that the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, didn’t pick up on an outsider being part of a secret group chat? The head of the fucking CIA, Radcliffe, didn’t see it… shitshow
I’m sick of senators like mark Kelly coming out and talking about how his republican colleagues keep complaining about trump in private. If that’s true you MUST call them out by name. Now is not the time for some, “I can’t say who, but…..” bullshit! Speak out now!
They don't want to burn their colleagues. He's trying to let them know that many of them feel the same way, to build a bipartisan resistance against Trump in Congress
In an interview today, Kelly also said he thought the participants in the chat had "learned their lesson" and would stop conducting classified government conversations on Signal
Thanks for posting the video. This is an outrageous statement from him. He's basically saying it's ok to break the law and knowingly put service members and our country at risk if you've "learned your lesson" about it! NO need for an investigation. He's lost all my respect.
Trump personally isn’t facing any jail time over this one. So he has zero interest and won’t get out of bed or off the golf course to help that bunch. The absentee landlord can’t be bothered with things that don’t create revenue for him
Mike Walz knew exactly wtf he was doing. He wanted the press to see the corruption first hand. He wanted the press to see the conspiracy plot against Europe.
Legacy media is downplaying Signalgate bc they're scared of T2.0. We know how big it is here on Bluesky, it's been trending since it happened. Even scaredy pants Schiff has vids on YouTube.
So far, right-wing media are treating this like the only sin was the journalist. No issue with sharing classified info on Signal, nor the possibility that foreign adversaries could hack it, nor using an app that doesn't leave a record of govt activities. The only problem was the journalist. 🤦♀️
Well I’ve actually been wondering if the entire purpose was to make the info easily available to foreign hackers = Russia. Otherwise - why choose Signal days after a damning - and specific - report?
It was also to evade leaving any record of policy discussions they were having. There are laws about preserving documentation of govt activities, but this admin wants to do what it does in secret, with little if any oversight or accountability. Like I've said, the chaos is a feature, not a bug.
You know, I don’t know if it’s a question of belief I think it’s a question of effective messaging to an overworked, undereducated, & time compromised population. Now they see what it actually means - they/we are being hyper-morphed into serfdom while a monarchist regime installs itself.
Trump is currently running new ads using taxpayer money that blames Biden for current high prices, with the justification that “lawsuit abuse” is the cause for rising inflation and high taxes…
Purely anecdotal but on my local NextDoor which is populated by MAGA morons, have not seen anyone bring this debacle up or deflect blame. They seem to be pivoting toward the voter ID issue instead. I’m wondering if this will convince some of them about the rampant ineptitude.
Seriously, they can’t get shit right. I mean they fuck up their pre designed lies , crazy.
As a kid I thought you had to be some genius badass to be in these roles and now it’s clear that even the dumbfucks that bragged in class about low scores can grow up and be stupid fucking adults too. Scary
Do Republicans realize that it is likely the case that ALL their Signal chats are being intercepted by the Kremlin and filed away by Putin for later use as political blackmail material (Kompromat)?
Oh, didn't you know? That is the point. Kompromat is no longer needed against Trump, he is all in. I expect him to start speaking fluent Russian to Putin in public if he makes it to next year.
Curious his number was in Walz's phone. He can't deny it. And curious no one else in that group looked to see who all was included.
That's what ya get with amateurs.
That's my favorite part of all this, Trump bitches all the time about leaks and they literally stumbled on a leak and haven't even put it together yet. Why else would waltz have him in his contact list lol
Mike Waltz might want to start sending Trump a few more ‘I’m not that guy’ memos before the whole Jeffrey Goldberg thing turns into his version of the ‘Russian hoax’—but with more awkward phone calls.
That will be the #TFF pivot point: He was leaking to the press (which he probably was.) Waltz gone by Friday night, Hegseth stays bcz GOP cowardice (ya think we had a recruitment + retention problem prior?) Hope Waltz figured out how to build that flat-pac file box for his departure. Fucking moron.
Read a very interesting piece last night about All The Presidents Men, how the signalgate and China brief scandals played out and whether there just might be a Deep Throat inside defense. Probably more than one.
It gave me hope. But at the same time I knew, Mike Waltz is not smart enough to be one
Yep. You have that right. But why was he a source for Goldberg? What was in it for him? Is he someone who cares about the Constitution and was a double agent? Going to write a book? WTF?
Comments
He may disclose the relationship. Sometimes, ethics are not much use if practiced by only one side.
That label has been used on different social media sites since shortly after the Atlantic article was published earlier this week. Maybe you just missed it
It’s too good not to have been noted.
People are saying
Can't trust anyone Donnie.
Disloyalty however will get you canned immediately. Apparently Trump hasn't figured out that Waltz sold them all out intentionally.
Trump thinks it was a "call", not a group chat. Trump is a moron.
3% of US trade passes through the Suez Canal.
Why is the US acting alone?
Trump claimed we wouldn’t put our military weight into fighting other country’s battles.
It went down after that.
Some of these people are manipulating everyone around them. They manipulate competent people, not just whisky-heads.
Is pretty fucking stupid. We’re learning that the people surrounding him somehow are as well.
"Nobody told me."
"I had nothing to do with that."
"I didn't sign that."
"I never heard of that person."
Wonder who the mole could be?
Waltz has denied ever having had contact with Goldberg, "This one in particular I’ve never met, don’t know, never communicated with, and we are looking into and reviewing how the heck he got into this room."
He was in your contacts list moron, that's how.
How long until the, "huh, who's he, never meet him" treatment begins?
But what about photo?
"I guess your eyes are telling you what you see..."

He may wanna rethink this defense.
But I do think he was a source.
.he didn't have anything to do with this"
Was this a town square perp walk and release?
Is there more to come this guy?
Are there bigger sources with bigger stories coming out?
He doesn’t give a fuck.
How delicious! Making popcorn!
Funny, he doesn't LOOK like a mole.
Lots of money being passed around between journalists, lobbyists and politicians?
Ketchup Mike.
The Last Waltz?
Only need to convince one person in a jury (or 40% of Americans).
Using Signal, besides not being sufficiently secure, allows them to automatically delete their conversations because they are punishable.

Mike Walz knew exactly wtf he was doing. He wanted the press to see the corruption first hand. He wanted the press to see the conspiracy plot against Europe.
