In a Republic, actually
‘Democratic lawmakers called for criminal investigations Wednesday into the conduct surrounding a sensitive group chat in which high-ranking Trump officials discussed military action against the Houthis.

Senate and House Democrats underscored the Espionage Act in letters to the Trump administration as they called for either Attorney General Pamela Bondi or a special counsel to review the activity of the Signal group chat, which has set off a firestorm on Capitol Hill.

The existence of the group chat was revealed by The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, who reported he was accidentally added to the chat. On Wednesday, The Atlantic published the chat that included information about the attacks ahead of “the scheduled start of the bombing of Houthi positions.”

Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, argued in a letter Wednesday that conduct in the group chat was “likely” a violation of the Espionage Act. “This situation is perhaps one of the most humiliating and dangerous national security breaches in modern American history,” Raskin said in the letter to Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, adding that the episode put the lives of American servicemembers at risk.’


Very good.

The incompetence and reckless disregard for security protocols is in fact criminal.

From the CISA Mobile Communications Best Practice Guidance dated Dec 18, 2024:

"Adopt a free messaging application for secure communications that guarantees end-to-end encryption, such as Signal or similar apps."

https://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/2024-12/guidance-mobile-communications-best-practices.pdf

So the Deep State encourages the Trump administration to use Signal, which has been proven to be susceptible to be compromised by hackers. Then a leftist "journalist" somehow gets invited into the chat by some unknown Deep State operative within the Trump Administration.

How was this whole thing not a setup to entrap the President and his cabinet?

I think that’s exactly right…

No such thing as a Democrat lawmaker.
 
You will never understand reality unless you understand the new world order politics. These manufactured agendas or mistakes really not needed, put a fog in front of nefarious men and women who want their identity of a world government with them in charge. Many politicians are beholden to those people who give them money. We also have massive lobbyists problems.

The mini brained Troll Bots have completely run out of useful or interesting chat .

Like a bunch of shallow gossiping chimps .

The question is, how often were they using this Signal to discuss sensitive military and intelligence matters? We only know about this one because someone mistakenly looped in Jeffrey Goldberg instead of whichever JG they wanted to loop in.

Were records kept of these discussions?

How vulnerable were these discussion to hacking by the Russians, Chinese, Iranians, etc.
 
The amount of backbiting going on here by our progressives is the result of how totally void they are of ideas. They really don't have anything to say about any real issue like the economy, world peace, our illegal alien infestation, tariffs or government waste-fraud. All they're able to do is defy Trump and let their media buttboys try to paint him as the evil one. But there ain't that much paint in the world. MAGA
 
its all tit for tat.....thats all the parties do nowadays....a bunch of hypocrites.....

I think it's more of a matter of double standards.

We heard the Republicans disingenously complain about Hillary's emails for years, even though the supposedly "Top Secret" information on threads were reports in the NYT about programs we denied were happening.
 
The fact that an enemy, anti-American journalist at the Atlantic got a hold of the conversation is definitely a criminal act, probably on the part of a low-level civil service stooge. Finding out who the leaker is important, but fortunately, the military adventure turned out fine.

It was not a "mistake." Jeffery Goldberg was intentionally and purposely added to the Signal chat by some unknown deep state operative embedded within the Trump administration. This was done in order to embarrass President Trump and his cabinet members.

You can bet that that Jeffrey Goldberg has now been deleted from the contacts of everyone in the Executive branch.
