In a Republic, actually
‘The comedy of Goldberg’s reports resides, at least in part, in the discovery that the Vice-President and the heads of the leading defense and intelligence bureaucracies deploy emojis with the same frequency as middle schoolers. More seriously, but not astonishingly, when prominent members of the Administration were confronted with their potentially lethal carelessness, they did as their President would have them do: they attacked the character and the integrity of the reporter (who proved far more concerned about national security than the national-security adviser), and then refused to give straight answers to Congress about their cock-up and the sensitivity of the communications. Everyone from Cabinet members to the President’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, followed principles inherited by the President from the late Roy Cohn: Never apologize. And be certain to slander the messenger.

This spectacle of breezy contempt regarding questions of process and policy was humiliating, for sure, but hardly an amazement. In the chat, Vice-President J. D. Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth seem to compete in their denigrations of the Europeans. (“I fully share your loathing of European freeloading,” Hegseth tells Vance. “It’s PATHETIC.”) And yet much of what is so depressing about the chat is how familiar we are with the details and its spirit. Vance has, publicly and repeatedly, unburdened himself of his and the President’s disdain for Europe—most flagrantly in a speech in Munich, in February, when he lectured European leaders on their supposed failures in the realms of immigration and free speech.’


Trump and his clown cabinet are consistent in their contempt for responsible governance and sound public policy – whether it’s endangering the lives of American servicemen and women or lying about Europe to the benefit of Putin and America’s enemies.

Well, give credit where credit is due. He was right on the money there. The only thing he didn't do that would have made it a truly great speech was to identify the culprits. (That would be the Jews in both cases)
 
And the Following seem not to care at all

Amazing

You're a moron cheering on a leftist media hack interfering unnecessarily with United States Foreign Policy. What he should have done is kept his mouth shut.
But that's not what he did, is it? He got his 15 minutes of fame, hope it was worth it for him.

Too late Celia

Always a rather silly topic but already it's been and gone .
Now, Celia .
Pull yourself together and find a useful discussion topic .
You surely do not want to be remembered as a Crappy or Horsey "sound -a - like ".

Coming from the Biden sharp as a tack Chinese Spy Balloon Party
 
Should the Atlantic reporter have been included in that email chain?

Obviously not.

Was it a mistake?

Sure seems to have been.

Did the mistake cause any significant damage?

Nope.

Is the rapt attention of our liberals on the mistake (as choreographed by the left’s apparatchik media propaganda outlets) improper?

Not fully. It’s ok to call-out such mistakes, carelessness and oversights. However, it does tend to serve the lib mission of avoiding any acknowledgment of President Trump’s successes. And the mission directed against the Houthis was a major success.
 
It was a reckless use of an unsecured platform, that luckily did no harm, other than give Dimocrats red meat that they so desperately want. The administration cannot afford to prove the opposition right regarding competence, and must absolutely 'do better' going forward or risk getting little accomplished during the next four years, spending all of their time putting out fires.
