House Republican on war plans chat: ‘There’s no doubt that Russia and China saw this stuff’
The Hill ^ | 03/25/2025 | Lauren Irwin

Posted on 03/25/2025 7:13:07 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) said there’s “no doubt” that Russia and China were monitoring the U.S. officials’ devices used for a war plan text chat.

“I will guarantee you, 99.99 percent with confidence, Russia and China are monitoring those two phones,” Bacon told CNN’s Manu Raju. “So I just think it’s a security violation, and there’s no doubt that Russia and China saw this stuff within hours of the actual attacks on Yemen or the Houthis.”

National security adviser Mike Waltz reportedly invited The Atlantic’s top editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, into the Signal group, in which Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared secret war plans.

Bacon, a former Air Force brigadier general and a member of the House Armed Services committee, said he always was concerned about Hegseth, an Army veteran who was a longtime Fox News host.

Bacon reveals himself as a total MIC flunky with that.

Tell the Russians and Chicoms today that we are going to hit Yemen tomorrow and what are they going to about it? Not much. In reality, militarily, this is a nothing burger. If it gets that warmonger Waltz out of the administration it’s a big win for America.

This is Bacon. He sees a lot of weird things for the far-left “media”.

Of course they did. Hunter put them in his paintings and shipped them off. NOBODY pays that kind of money for paintings by GHOST PAINTERS and handed off Hunter to sell FED SECRETS in.

The whole controversy is a big nothingburger, just an excuse to get Hegseth fired.

Bacon would sell his own wife and daughter into slavery for another $dollar from the military industrial complex. If he’s for or against something you know where the deep state’s landing on the issue. Another perfumed prince—follow the $.

And there’s no doubt that the thread could have been complete mischaracterized misinformation.

Suppose the Biden administration approved use of Signal for communications? Would that change his perspective?

Perhaps Hegseth WANTED the Russians and Chinese to know what was going on so they wouldn’t think we were attacking Iran or elsewhere that might trigger a response from them.
