That's why he left the military.

aberdoom.bsky.social•69 days ago

A court martial at the very least … with a certain guilty verdict leading to time in prison before being dishonourably discharged!

sanfelko.bsky.social•69 days ago

It's worse than recklessness. It's a deliberate attempt to communicate off the record. These people are traitors and should be tested as such. The way our founding fathers demanded.

angiercw.bsky.social•69 days ago

The training that occurs on this topic is relentless. You have to pass an online test once or twice a year and folks come in to present the training as well. Now, imagine theeee boss does this at the level that he did. “Loss of confidence.” Resign.

thewrightjen.bsky.social•69 days ago

Doubtful the boss even took the training

kaos-agent.bsky.social•69 days ago

We can hope for mutiny.

How many people were held responsible when 13 American soldiers were killed in the Afghan withdrawal

imaxximus.bsky.social•69 days ago

Grow up. It was a terror attack. How many were held accountable after 9/11? Same number. It’s a dangerous world.

lespaul4547.bsky.social•69 days ago

we destroyed a country after 911 and the al qaeda terrorist leadership were also killed. The attack that killed US Servicemen in Afghanistan was avoidable

So arrest them! They don’t have any special immunity. What’s it going to take to stop this insanity?

jackiefromtexas.bsky.social•69 days ago

Hegseth doesn't think he did anything wrong so what happens next? Nothing as usual?

Reality Winner got over 5 years for, wait for it, "Leaking classified information to the media"

sgrmama.bsky.social•69 days ago

Unfortunately the difference with Reality is that the information she leaked had to to with Russian interference in the 2016 election. The report indicated that Russian hackers accessed voter registration rolls in the United States with an email phishing operation.

I pray every day that Dems can take back the House and Senate very soon and get these abominations out of office!!!

Statute of limitations on lying to congress is 5 years

10 years for espionage violations

All of these creeps will be subject to prosecution in 4 years if people just show up to vote

instagabrial.bsky.social•69 days ago

No they won't. Because if we don't kick out the centrists we will get another Garland and no one will go to jail

joshsnider.bsky.social•68 days ago

“Centrist” does not mean that one is incapable of doing their job. Garland turned out to be a political coward, not a centrist

ukbibi.bsky.social•69 days ago

Should be fired Saturday. Hegseth talking to adults and pointing his finger 👉🏾 at fellow adults is DISRESPECTFUL.

barbstc.bsky.social•69 days ago

Take him down and hand him the bottle!

eusupport.bsky.social•69 days ago

I suppose the military no longer does firing squads for treason. What about keelhauling? Flogging? Half rum rations?

mzeemussim.bsky.social•69 days ago

And active duty troops will likely say "no excuse, sir" instead of pathetically lying that it's not a big deal.

raymclaren.bsky.social•69 days ago

Well unfortunately their boss is a convicted felon that released Jan 6 insurrectionists but yes if the USA was a country of law and order…

imaxximus.bsky.social•69 days ago

Kim Jong Un would put everyone on that treasonous signal chat in front of an anti aircraft battery. For obvious good reason. And I assume he’s already inside their comms with a vested interest in getting more info. Why didn’t the participants even give it a thought?

cliffaschaffer.bsky.social•69 days ago

I had a TS clearance in the Army. This is correct. If I had ever done something like that my life would be over.

Yes, this. My two enlisted sons are careful not to text or sometimes even tell me where they’ve been or exactly when they return. Just a few years in and they already know better. Their attempt to defend it is unhinged.

waiting74patiently.bsky.social•69 days ago

I'd say that Pete just lost the support of the Military he's supposed to manage. Mr. Bunny, was not invited to the less than secret Signal group, but he says:

mikesaltman.bsky.social•69 days ago

Not smart enough for the job

wpete.bsky.social•69 days ago

Not really, the investigation would have to determine compromise risk, classification and whether it was intentional.

sugoinatech.bsky.social•69 days ago

Intentionally adding someone that is not involved in any manner seems sufficient. Intentionally setting a chat to auto delete without retaining the documents for archival seems pretty clear. Telling lies under oath about it yesterday should be sufficient.

wpete.bsky.social•69 days ago

But as a leader, the punishment should be always higher and rightfully should resign.

sarcasmrules.bsky.social•69 days ago

No leadership or taking accountability. The excuses are making it way worse.

zarkunit-1.bsky.social•69 days ago

This demonstrates how rules, laws and competence do not apply to the tRump regime

bowlingtogether.bsky.social•69 days ago

Because it is a crime syndicate. The mob bosses don't have to pay -- just the little guys.

Long ago, I was in the signal corps. Our little group repaired a special set of "radios". We were constantly reminded about Leavenworth.

hnogle.bsky.social•69 days ago

Sadly, nothing will come of it. There will be initial bluster but this administration has no accountability. Especially with the military, they’ve downplayed war crimes and they fired all respectable jag lawyers. I fear we’re stuck with this bullshit.

rudizwerver.bsky.social•69 days ago

I am curious how this incident works out in the polls.

serviceman.bsky.social•69 days ago

He needs to go to jail all of them. Where’s the sanity in all this

nickbear11.bsky.social•64 days ago

Ask anyone in healthcare - one small slip, like leaving a chart open, is all it takes. Interestingly, I just got fired for taking a pic w perm that was not made public

truth-n-science.bsky.social•69 days ago

this is why the military doesn't appreciate drunken civilians being responsible for battle plans.

deb1005.bsky.social•69 days ago

Wait! It is meritocracy we are focused on!

instagabrial.bsky.social•69 days ago

Rapists also tend to. But he skated on sexual assault charges something also too common. Trump hired him in part because he evaded justice. If your a criminal wanting to do criminal acts a conscience and empathy become liabilities. He is shameless.

I have to say, watching Rep. Crow provide recce to the Lt. General was, um, really something

northofhome.bsky.social•69 days ago

He should, too. He is required as a 🪖 member to take OPSEC and other intelligence/security training. It is an annual training. Plus, there is JAG and PAO trained to review messages/comments before release. They didn't want to ask, they already knew they were wrong.

Some kid just went to jail for it. Airforce I think? Reality Winner?

hafitafi.bsky.social•69 days ago

Jack Teixeira is currently facing 16 years for basically the same thing and these asshats are gunna claim it as a mistake to get off easier. I dunno what worse purposely leaking war plans to get some response or being so incompetent that you just accidentally leak war plans.
