Nasty claims this is what Republicans do.

Alinsky 101: Always accuse your enemy of what you are doing

[alstewartfan]

Simple Alinsky. Yes. 🧐

[rktman]

I thought schmuckee was in her sights.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

She said this in 2020, but it is a “tactic” they use constantly and are currently using it on Pete Hegseth.

[right way right]

I will speculate...since it seems to be the thing to do these days.

Goldberg is a spy.
Got caught and now makes these claims.

Why is he not appearing before congress?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Goldberg is a spy.

Alex Jones was saying 25 years ago that Goldberg is Mossad.

[Carry_Okie]

Goldberg is a spy.

It's what reporters do, within statutory limits.

[alstewartfan]

Where are the GOP commercials using this feed? Democrats need to learn that they have been chumps.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Also, DOD requires the use of Signal because they had back doors built into it for spying purposes.

[volare737]

Democrats are “tournament championship level” when it comes to personal smears and character assassination!

[Sarah Barracuda]

Why are they going after Hegseth he had NOTHING to do with this, this is the fault of Waltz and his chief of staff who added names to the server, how the hell is this Hegseths responsibility

[AndyJackson]

This was a set-up. There is no excuse for using an app like Signal for high level national security discussions. Since an outsider could participate in it, the device is not “encrypted” in any national security setting. This is incompetence, but it is incompetence from the Biden administration. And, this just shows up the incompetence of the folks responsible for securing national security communications.

[OpusatFR]

How you handle it is to tell the left, “You lie!”

That’s their standard MO for the tactic when it is used against them.

[Dick Bachert]

“There is no excuse for using an app like Signal for high level national security discussions.”

No classsified info was used and the site had been okayed by the Biden administration for them to be doing whatever they did.

[gildafarrell]

That’s why they’re called “demoncRATS”. Name fits. Why doesn’t this godawful human retire. She’s stuffed her gills at the public trough wwwaaayyy too long.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Wrap-Up Smear

1. Demonize your political opponent by telling the public lies about them.
   
2. The press reports the lies as if they were true.
   
3. You use the press reports as validation of your lies.

[ChronicMA]

A patriot would immediately report to an appropriate authority the knowledge that someone is on a communication group that they should not be on, because of national security.

Goldberg knew he was on the group and that he shouldn’t be.

My question is, did he report the security issue immediately or did he wait to write an article to reveal it?

[AndyJackson]

Yes it was okayed by the Biden administration. Like I said, government IT is incompetent.
