Full Signal text chain has been released.

There's nothing in it but the pros and cons of striking now vs waiting a month.
It's not war plans. It's not classified info.
It's a conversation, and nice to see cabinet members and staffers hashing out the best way to move forward.… pic.twitter.com/OTNYgHr3VP
Well this should tell us that the Signal incident was most likely a set-up. American Oversight is David Brock and Norm Eisen. CREW was the lawfare arm of their effort to Target Trump 1.0.

So, let’s me get this straight. The Atlantic released the so-called “war plans” and those “plans” include: No names. No targets. No locations. No units. No routes. No sources. No methods. And no classified information.

Those are some really shitty war plans.

This only proves one thing: Jeff Goldberg has never seen a war plan or an "attack plan" (as he now calls it). Not even close.
As I type this, my team and I are traveling the INDOPACOM region, meeting w/ Commanders (the guys who make REAL "war plans") and talking to troops.
We will continue to do our job, while the media does what it does best: peddle hoaxes.

Both cases involve classified information improperly stored or transmitted on a personal system, in violation of a federal statute making it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way.
This current case involves many more people in the Executive cabinet than the former.

Just to be clear, you are the one engaging in whataboutismProsperdick said:
It's too bad there wasn't a signal leak during Biden's term (that we know of) because it would have been nice if someone could have let Biden/Austin know that their "plan" for the Afghanistan withdrawal was a complete cluster**** that would leave valuable military equipment in enemy's hands and get our servicemen killed.
That's what a complete failure of an admin looks like liberals. You can also take your whataboutism and shove it.

And nothing happened to her did it? In fact, she doesn't even acknowledge it, shrugged it off just like she did four dead in Benghazi.
At least the Trump administration took responsibility for this mistake.

B. What on earth does that have to do with the communication we're discussing, or my reply? It's either classified or it's not. From all accounts...it's not.
Correct. Just because you can, doesnt mean you should. Which is why everyone has deemed it a 'mistake'.Quote:
C. Anyone with any military experience would NEVER even share with their spouse the details Pete put in the chat at the operational time he did. It's a no brainer, we don't share that type of info before an operation.
Hullabaloonatic said:So to recap, the US VP, SecDef, and other cabinet level officials used a method of communication to discuss battle plans, share attack specs including targets, timing, and armaments, and did it over a channel that is not subject to Information Retention standards or approved as a secure method. The information they shared was only to be shared from within a SCIF.Ag in Tiger Country said:
My reading of the messages' content shows we NOW have very capable decision makers carefully weighing options instead of acting on impulse, which the Left has accused Trump of doing with impunity. Furthermore, it seems cabinet members are free to offer their input &/or disagree, including situations where tensions might run hot like the alleged Rubio v. Musk 'brawl.' Therefore, this isn't the political hand grenade the Left thinks it is, especially if folks read the texts!!!
Therefore, the real issues for me is A) why didn't the journalist announce their inclusion in a briefing, & B) was the journalist intentionally added to subvert this Administration or was this a gross oversight that's absolutely correctable? If the former, the leaker WILL be in big trouble AND the MSM may have lost an important "ally" in their mission to destroy this Administration, even if it means the nation is also harmed to achieve that very result (which is very believable considering what the Biden Administration did to the USA for 4 years)!!!
And the kicker is that one of them accidentally added a reporter and NOBODY ****ING NOTICED.
AND ALL THAT COMFORTS YOU?! YOUR ONLY CONCERN IS ABOUT THE JOURNALISTS ETHICS?!
I read the messages and I think Hegseth summed them up pretty accurately. If you really want to stretch you can say that an after the fact note that planes and missiles had flown was borderline but certainly didn't endanger anyone. If this was directly sent to the Houthis they don't know from where or what the targets are they just know they are being attacked which had already been announced publicly.Fdsa said:Ha…go update your classification guide real quick, Pete, to match what you just said.Houston Lee said:

Agree that even if objectively true that there is not much of use there which is where he is coming from, your reply there is more what is warranted as just a `standard mea culpa and we will quickly fix it' IF that is given static, then you deploy the "besides nothing important by my standards was there" angle.BoydCrowder13 said:Houston Lee said:

See, this crap is a bad response.
The response the whole time should have been:
"We are investigating how this incident occurred and are taking steps to ensure it does not happen again. The related military operation was a success and this incident did not compromise the safety of our men and women in uniform.
We take our duty to the American people seriously and will strive to improve any processes that allowed this incident to occur."
Take responsibility, maintain that ultimately it didn't matter and promise to do better. Being overly defensive and on the attack against the Atlantic makes it look worse.
many people have deemed it a mistake. Pete has not….first rule when you make a spill (or even mess up OPSEC)…own it.AgGrad99 said:Correct. Just because you can, doesnt mean you should. Which is why everyone has deemed it a 'mistake'.Quote:

But that doesnt make it classified, and doesnt mean it's worthy of the fainting and gasping we're seeing right now. The motivation for that reaction is completely different.
