"BREAKING: Pete Hegseth answered a question about the Signal Chats:

"So you're talking about a deceitful and highly discredited, so-called journalist who's made a profession of peddling hoaxes time and time again to include the, I don't know, the hoaxes of Russia, Russia, Russia, or the fine people on both sides hoax or suckers and losers hoax."

"So this is the guy that pedals in the garbage. This is what he does."

"I would love to comment on the Houthi campaign because of the skill and courage of our troops, I've monitored it very closely from the beginning."'

Hegseth says ‘nobody was texting war plans’ after group chat breach

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters Monday that “nobody was texting war plans” following news breaking that Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, gained access to a Signal group chat featuring Trump administration officials talking about plans for an attack against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

“Nobody was texting war plans, and that’s all I have to say about that,” Hegseth said outside a plane in Hawaii after being asked about Goldberg’s access to the chat.

Hegseth also called Goldberg “a deceitful and highly discredited, so-called journalist who’s made a profession of peddling hoaxes time and time again.”

Goldberg gained access to a group chat featuring Trump administration figures such as Hegseth and national security adviser Mike Waltz in which they talked about plans for an attack against Houthi rebels. The Atlantic journalist detailed his experience as a part of the chat in a Monday report that rattled Washington.

Goldberg said he had doubts originally that the Signal group was real because he did not think “the national-security leadership of the United States would communicate on Signal about imminent war plans.”

The chat’s existence was confirmed by a spokesperson for the National Security Council, Brian Hughes.


“This appears to be an authentic message chain, and we are reviewing how an inadvertent number was added to the chain,” Hughes said previously. “The thread is a demonstration of the deep and thoughtful policy coordination between senior officials. The ongoing success of the Houthi operation demonstrates that there were no threats to troops or national security.”

Multiple Democrats went after Hegseth following the reveal of Goldberg’s breach into the chat.

Major clusterfuck. Plenty of blame to go all around. The Dems and every other American has good reason to be pissed

Michael Waltz, Nat Security Advisor, who invited the reporter into the chat, should resign immediately

Texts are pretty limited as they are meant to be fairly concise. So, If one were to text war plans the concise verbiage would be something like:

1742870409053.png the 1742870379411.png out of them and 1742870053134.png on their parade. We'll 1742870436534.png the 1742870513528.png in the end.

Pretty sure that's what war plans via SMS look like.
 
Let's hope it wasn't actual SMS as they are not secure and are not end-to-end encrypted.

Which then leads to another thing - aren't they supposed to have encrypted phones and tech and stuff, and if so, I doubt they could add a reporter to an encrypted message.

Something seems fishy with this whole thing.
