The Atlantic published Wednesday what it described as the "attack plans" at the center of a Signal text chain leak involving senior officials in the Trump administration.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and national security adviser Mike Waltz have faced calls to resign following revelations that the outlet's editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg was inadvertently added to a private group chat earlier this month in which Hegseth, Waltz, Vice President JD Vance and other top administration officials reportedly discussed impending airstrikes on Yemen's Houthi rebels. Hegseth has said "nobody was texting war plans" and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard vowed during a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing Tuesday that there was "no classified material" in the messages.
"TEAM UPDATE: TIME NOW (1144et): Weather is FAVORABLE. Just CONFIRMED w/CENTCOM we are a GO for mission launch. 1215et: F-18s LAUNCH (1st strike package). 1345: ‘Trigger Based’ F-18 1st Strike Window Starts (Target Terrorist is @ his Known Location so SHOULD BE ON TIME – also, Strike Drones Launch (MQ-9s)," Hegseth apparently wrote in a screenshot of a text message released Wednesday by The Atlantic.
"1410: More F-18s LAUNCH (2nd strike package). 1415: Strike Drones on Target (THIS IS WHEN THE FIRST BOMBS WILL DEFINITELY DROP, pending earlier ‘Trigger Based’ targets). 1536 F-18 2nd Strike Starts – also, first sea-based Tomahawks launched," Hegseth reportedly continued, before adding "Godspeed to our Warriors."

Like plans can not change.
Atlantic reporter had to find a job after the National Enquirer shut down like all the rest of them.
Enemies among us...
The end of the PDJT cabal right? Uh, nope! Assclowns!
Vance responded to the report Wednesday by declaring that "It’s very clear Goldberg oversold what he had."But one thing in particular really stands out. Remember when he was attacking Ratcliffe for blowing the cover for a CIA agent? Turns out Ratcliffe was simply naming his chief of staff," he added.
The Atlantic report said "A CIA spokesperson asked us to withhold the name of John Ratcliffe’s chief of staff, which Ratcliffe had shared in the Signal chain, because CIA intelligence officers are traditionally not publicly identified."
Waltz wrote on X "No locations. No sources & methods. NO WAR PLANS. Foreign partners had already been notified that strikes were imminent.
‘ Like plans can not change.’
lol. What?
If including this guy in the chat was a false flag, this is a gift that keeps on giving.
If it is what the left assumes it is, things will get really ugly, I believe.
I’m beginning to wonder whether spyware or some other form of skullduggery took place which resulted in Goldberg being privy to this meeting.
Compared to today's publications, "The National Enquirer" was a paragon of top journalism.
Clowns to the left, jokers to the right.
This doesn’t pass the smell test. How did this guy “inadvertently” get added to this chat? A leading Trump critic. Did he get a back door entrance or was he let in by a “never Trumper” on the call? I don’t think it just happened. I fully believe he wanted to get on this call and had an in somehow.
I’m starting to wonder if this staffer who added Goldberg was DEI. And why add him just as they are discussing dropping bombs?
It seems that somebody, somewhere, REALLY doesn’t like the President and is trying to take out his national security team.
Intense prayers are called for.
If this stuff is classified, hasn’t Goldberg and the Atlantic committed treason here? Sure seems like it to me.
🔝🔝🔝
It's been confirmed that nothing in the text was classified.
‘ If this stuff is classified, hasn’t Goldberg and the Atlantic committed treason here? Sure seems like it to me.’
The administration has stated repeatedly that the information isn’t classified.
Goldberg is like a 10 cent Woodward and Bernstein. Forget it Jeffrey. You’re always going to be a loser as long as you work for that obsolete rag, Atlantic.
