"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."

For who?

The fake, discredited "journalist."

You make a good point, but you’re missing the forest for the trees:

Did they say in their chats what is claimed?

If so, what are the ramifications for Trump administration policies and what their claimed goals have been?

That is where it will undoubtedly head to in media reports from the left and the right.

There’s no way around that, and while The Atlantic is a garbage news outlet, attacking the messenger has diminishing returns.

Agree. They should also combine through the list, or whatever the Signal software was contacting.

Comb, not combine. (I hate having to triple check everything because autocorrect changes my words.)

That moron Goldberg fell right into their trap. You love to see a plan come together like this.

These are SOP psy-op disinformation operations that pass through Atlantic as entry point.

Coordinated and orchestrated.

Atlantic was the first back in 2015 to start the Trump is a Russian asset.

It is deep state machine ops.

“ The fake, discredited “journalist.””

Fake or not someone added him to an unsecured text chain that included details of a military action that was about to happen.

He didn’t share the details, even now.

Just that it happened.

So he passed this “test”, but it wasn’t a test, it was a major screw up and whoever did it should be fired.

And anyone who discusses these things in a commercial texting app should at the very least be reprimanded.

How was it a trap for Goldberg? Please elaborate. Maybe I am missing something.

Who screwed up? The person who decided to add him to the text? We don't even know their reasons for doing this, but I know it was intentional.

3 percent of US trade runs through the Suez

If that's true, then yeah, maybe we shouldn't be shouldering this burden.

The percentage shouldn't be an issue.
Suppose the affected trade was yours or a family business.

What exactly is the percentage cut off for us to START shouldering US trade?
You must know it's not 3%...what percent is it.?

There’s not alot of 3% areas the US navy patrols, even when there are known hostiles in the area, and just how many 3, 4. 5, 6. or 7% areas does the US have to patrol?

I thought Pete came off very well in the call transcript. Vance sounded like a nervous Nelly. Crush the Houthis, dammit.

I think most Americans believe it’s neither America only or unending interventionism and are against chasing after unending 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7% areas to patrol, and racking up unending debt.

‘ We don’t even know their reasons for doing this, but I know it was intentional.’

If it was a screw up, they should be fired.

If it was intentional, they should be fired.

And you know it was intentional? Lmao. No, you do not.
