Summary
A security breach involving Trump’s national security team occurred when leaked Signal group chat revealed that Trump-appointed officials accidentally shared classified U.S. war plans with journalist Jeffrey Goldberg.
The chat included top officials like Pete Hegseth, JD Vance, Marco Rubio, and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.
This breach raises concerns about using unclassified apps for sensitive data, violating laws on classified information and record retention.
The incident highlights the risks of appointing unqualified individuals to critical roles, echoing broader patterns of mismanagement during Trump’s administration.
He hired amateurs because he already ran though the establishment republicans in his first term. There’s no one left but amateurs. Plus these new guys will follow orders and not balk at doing illegal shit, because they’re loyalists first and foremost.
