Hey Dems and MSM…

NOBODY CARES ABOUT THIS…

Next ??
I agree, this "story" has lost traction.
No U.S. personal were hurt and terrorist were disposed of. That is what people want to hear.
They care a lot on Bluesky and reddit. It never was a story to the average voter.

I agree with Ship here. But I wish they would toss Waltz. Someone got into your phone and changed the number?! How stupid do you think we are Mike?

Have you read this thread? There are plenty of folks in this thread who proposed just that.

The simplest explanation has always been that Waltz had him as a contact as he was probably a source for a previous story and being a technically illiterate fool accidently add him to the conversation.

People are being played and because he is on "their team" they refuse to see it. Hell even the tweet you liink admits this but still feeds the need to attack Goldberg as a defense mechanism.

You claim I didn't read the article; how do you know? Truth is, I did indeed read the damn article, along with other articles; YOU actually bragged that you didn't read the Facebook article
Yes, because it was a literal facebook post from a literal random conspiracy theorist who was neither credentialed or qualified to speak on it. It would be the exact same thing if I sent you my crazy aunt's FB post regarding covid vaccine 'truth.' Facebook should NEVER be used as a source, I can't believe I'm telling a grown up this.
Quote:

I offered, but when I offered content from a Reuters article that also blamed Wong, you try to suggest that it doesn't state that Wong wasn't the one responsible for organizing those attendees of Waltz at his direction, which is incorrect. It's been established that Goldberg was an invitee from Waltz's group/list; now we know Wong was responsible for creating Waltz's invitee list, which included Goldberg.
Omg NO IT DIDNT. This is why I accused you of not reading the article because it did no such thing. The ONLY thing that Reuters article did was state that Waltz asked Wong to put together a 'tiger team' list. That was the totality of Wong's involvement per that article. You either didn't read it or you extrapolated the words on the screen to mean that Wong created the Signal group chat and/or invited Goldberg himself (NEITHER of which happened because WONG DIDNT HAVE ACCESS TO THE CHAT).

Look, I agree using that App was a mistake; I agree the journalist being in the chat was a mistake. Those mistakes can be corrected, & I hope they are because it is indeed a screw-up & a bad look for those involved.
Thank you!

HOWEVER, you're clearly being obstinate about the POSSIBILITY that the journalist's participation could have been intentional,
My guy, Waltz literally went on the Laura Ingraham show and said "I did it." Goldberg literally posted a screenshot of the Signal chat with an image saying ""Michael Waltz added you to the group." You are the one being obstinate and fishing for answers in unfounded conspiracy theories. Like, instead of looking at the direct evidence, you'd rather say "well isn't it POSSIBLE that the deputy staffers' wife executed a deliberate plot to leak war plans on an app chosen by the SecDef"? Listen to yourself.

The rest of your post is just a childish ad hominem.

Why are leftists still breathlessly talking about this?

America has long since moved on. We have tons more problems to solve after four years of ____________ running the country and Americans being last on the agenda.

Mistakes were made. The administration learned. The mission was 100% successful. Trump and the American public have moved on. Continued efforts by the left to damage Trump/Hegseth with this are getting pretty lame.

What was really learned? They learned to add journalists to a group chat? They learned that Signal is not a proper communication channel? They learned they are required to save communications? They learned there are no consequences?

I'd say they learned 45% if the country is so obsessed with "their side winning" that they don't care about outcomes or reason or holding everyone to the same standards,… but we all knew that already

After four years of America being beaten into submission, you're concerned about standards NOW?

MAGA does not care because the voters don't care. But keep on posting.

It's funny people care about this issue so much.

Biden's puppets almost destroyed America in 4 short years. We escaped total destruction by not electing Kamala. Need any more receipt than these facts?

These are MSNBC Maddow loving NPC's you're dealing with so it's probably not worth the effort to explain further.

Literally hundreds of people were jailed for being political opposition. People were locked up for praying at abortion clinics. First Amendment rights were trampled. It was the most fascist regime in American history, and we don't even know who was pulling the strings.

It's April 1 and Pete Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense.

Commies are losing yet another battle they convinced themselves would be a big deal.

I swear, this whole thing got blown out of proportion more than Obama's tan suit.

If anything needed a hard reboot is all forms of media (social included) for all sides.

People have had time to ruminate on this whole Signal shenanigans. Doesn't seem to have moved the needle. Hopefully they have corrected this issue, and it doesn't happen again.

Time to let this overreaction wither away.

I don't believe it reflected poorly on Trump, but it did the other two, and I believe they both now have two strikes in Trump's mind - he was allegedly asking for opinions on what he should do with both of them.

ETA: I also believe a good chunk of the approval rating comes from the belief that Trump/DOGE are doing a good thing that will help our financial situation….and the border. That's where my approval comes from at least.

Possibly worse than a journalist listening in, Signal says Russian hackers get into the system too.

Not sure if tied directly but two senior NSC officials have now been fired. David Feith and Brian Walsh are two of them.

This was apparently at the request of Laura Loomer. Had nothing to do with signalgate. Mike Waltz is still employed, even though they know he's leaking to hostile news outlets. It's an odd situation.

I just don't understand what Laura Loomer could offer, as far as information, that would have her influencing national security staffing decisions.
