It would seem to me that if one by accident happens upon highly classified into, and then they pass it on publicly, that would be a law violation. Put that scum bag behind bars.
Bkmk
I know a lot of people jump to conspiracy theories any time something interesting happens, but sometimes it really is just a dopey goofup like this article explains. This sort of thing happens at a mundane level among regular people all the time, and there’s nothing magical about being a high government official that saves them from making the same mistake.
Goldberg took the lower and quicker payoff of reporting what he read for a single article, rather than a higher payoff by keeping confident and creating access to the White House.
First of all, why the heck are we using a third party app, originally integrated by the Drooling Spoon regime?? Why would any non fed employee or contractor (much less, Media Hack) ever be integrated into it?
Get one of Musk’s brain trust to create something proprietary!
The ONLY thing that matters is that Signal should never be used for sensitive discussions. Why was Signal being used at all?
The real problem is CISA requiring the use of Signal because it is “secure.” On a secure platform you would never be able to include someone who was not cleared and authorized to receive such messages. It takes typical FEDGOV CIO incompetence to think Signal is somehow secure or that what is called end to end encryption is meaningful when the system decrypts it for just anyone.
Sounds like he got screwed by some of our automated phone features !
The explanation is very plausible.
I was tolerant until the last sentence...
Junk! Next!!
BS explanation: It’s been demonstrated that Waltz had repeated interaction with him back to his congressional days.
How dare you inject common sense ...
Right you are, a 100% bull shit explanation. Either Waltz or his assistant Wong are responsible for this deliberate action.
Not sure we should believe this.
This is their cover story.
Hopefully they’ll find some other form of communication. But whatever the next form is that they use I hope everyone involved has enough sense to notice who is in the chat.
I can’t find the reference right now, but I seem to remember years ago that our “brilliant” Supreme Court decided that it was not a crime for someone who received classified information through a leak or by accident to then release that information to the public. They determined that only the individual responsible for the information and who originally released the information committed a crime. Always thought that was one of the most asinine decisions by the SCOTUS.
Cool. Now maybe he can also explain why he says he doesn’t know Goldberg but appears in several photographs with him. Waltz is a retired Army SF officer, globalist and wasn’t a Trump supporter until very recently.
Waltz is a deep state snake. The goal here was to embarrass Hegseth, remove him, and bring in closet homo Tom Cotton as Secdef.
