Goldberg said the level of detail in the targeting package that he received via Signal was down to the *names of individuals* to be killed. That’s the good stuff that includes all kinds of sources and methods and never should have been outside a SCIF. I’d be in prison if I fucked up that bad.

A hate crime against who?? Teslan-Americans??

BREAKING: After a federal judge issued an injunction ending the refugee resettlement funding freeze, Rubio just started terminating all of the contracts. Judge Jamal Whitehead issues a follow-on injunction tonight ordering the terminated agreements reinstated unless Rubio actually follows the law.

Buttigieg: Whether it's that DOGE site, their so-called wall of receipts, thinking that they were proving that they saved the taxpayer $8 billion with a B, not realizing that the contract they were talking about was $8 million with an M, which means they were off by 100,000%. 

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this? Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

But, her emails

Buttigieg: What if this had, in fact, gone to somebody else? I mean, somebody who could plausibly be in some of these people's cell phones. I don't know, the Chinese ambassador or Russian negotiator. And the other question on my mind is how many other times has something like this happened?

Pete Hegseth has learned his lesson. by Susan Collins

Not to mention that people were tracking the planes on FlightRadar 24@

They not only shared highly classified information on a private messaging app, but they also presumably did so on private unsecured phones--phones that are highly likely to be of interest to our adversaries. People have spent years in jail for far less. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

CNN put together a collection of clips of various Trump officials who were on the signal chat criticizing Hillary Clinton’s email server

As bad as the Houthi PC Group Chat is, and as bad as the DOGE stories leaking by the minute are...what's happening under the radar is so, so much worse.

Democrats on the various Senate Committees who will be hosting the members of the Houthi PC Group Chat had better...and I mean this respectfully...FUCKING INCINERATE THEM. Save the bullshit. Burn it down. USE THE WORDS: illegal. treason. leak. reckless. dangerous. compromised. DEMAND THEIR PHONES.

Pete Hegseth: "Hey, front desk, can I get a wakeup call for 10:30AM? I need to get up super early because we are secretly bombing Yemen tomorrow at 1PM. And could you have someone send up another bottle of Scotch? Thanks."

Pete Buttigieg has entered the chat.

now was that so hard?

Obviously, Jeffrey Goldberg has the texts that Hegseth claims that he doesn’t have. The Senate or House Armed Services Chairs can easily and quickly verify who is lying about this. If Hegseth blatant lied about this on camera tonight, how in the world can he continue in this job?

I’m sorry but I’m still thinking about the Secretary of Defense texting “We are currently clean on OPSEC” to a group chat that, unbeknownst to him, included the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic magazine.

“Here are five of the biggest reasons the disgraced former governor should be denied a political comeback.”

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

Swalwell: Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense? This moron texts out our war plans, putting our soldiers at risk, and he’s not gone? Every one on that chat—they just fire off texts not knowing who is on the chat? They all should be fired if they don’t resign.

Anyone who thinks Pete Hegseth will resign doesn't understand TrumpWorld. They have no shame. They have no introspection. They have no respect for consequences.

Louder for the old school Dems in the back!

THEY KNOW THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE AN UPRISING. They are rushing because they know it is irredeemable.

If only you knew someone who was elected to investigate things like this.

To be fair, the Sec of Def was probably blackout drunk.

Gangel: I've spoken to two very high ranking former intelligence officials, both of whom worked for Republicans… “The lack of operational security and stupidity is just stunning”

Andrew Cuomo is a DINO (Democrat in Name Only). New York City deserves a Mayor who will stand up to Trump, not bend the knee to protect his radical MAGA friends.

Taking a break from appreciating the spring snow in Vermont to say, “Absolutely not; these men suck shit”

To be fair, the Sec of Def was probably blackout drunk.

White people wanted to be able to get away with doing or saying anything, and now the world knows that what they wanted to say was, "We are fucking idiots..."

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

Oh, shit.

Please 🙏 Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, Mike Waltz keep the nuclear codes off social media. Just asking for a small favor.🚀

My colleague @sashaabramsky.bsky.social on Trump's deportation "machine." www.thenation.com/article/poli...

It bears repeating…. @elienyc.bsky.social is right.

This is the worst fucking take. A: HE IS DEFYING LOWER COURTS RIGHT NOW. THAT SHOULD BE ENOGH TO MAKE DEMOCRATS "FIGHT IN EVERY SINGLE WAY" B: We should not need to wait on a 6-3 Republican Supermajority to determine if Democrats should "FIGHT IN EVERY SINGLE WAY" WHAT THE FUCK EVEN IS THIS?

He is the dumbest one on the court and it's not even close.

🚨NEW: This is the CRAZIEST breach of national security you’ll ever read. The Trump administration accidentally texted Editor of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg, its war plans. Vance/Hegseth/Waltz & others included Goldberg in a group chat on Yemen military strikes. Read this, you won’t regret it.

If the word "inclusion" makes your ass mad, I'm sorry for you. Go relearn that shit at your nearest Kindergarten, if it hasn't already been defunded and whatnot.

Unqualified success. The clearest, most inarguable public policy success in ages.

Cracker Jack leader.

Circling back on this…

Sen. Jack Reed: "If true, this story represents one of the most egregious failures of operational security and common sense I have ever seen." "The carelessness shown by President Trump's cabinet is stunning and dangerous. I will be seeking answers from the Administration immediately."

Just know that when you are a real leader, the thing that you hate most to say when someone on your team screws up is “I don’t know anything about it.” Cause you should be all over it by now and announcing the steps you’ve taken to protect our military & to see that this can’t happen again.

This is unconscionable.

I cannot listen to people who were born after the millennium talk shit about the Affordable Care Act I really cannot
