This is a screw up and someone should be held to account. But on a scale of 1-100 of National Security screw ups, with the Afghanistan withdrawal being a 95, this is about a 5.
Whoever added that guy to the chat should be fired. I doubt if it was Walz. I'd guess another never Trumper fighting the good fight from within. It's going to be hard to kill all the weeds in the garden.
Was pretty funny to watch the outrage machine do its thing. Especially the networks trotting out John Bolton to rake Trump over the coals. He must have woken up, saw the news, rubbed his hands together and said ‘it’s payday for Bad Santa!’ The D’s are so dead right now. Does the Atlantic have the Houthi's on speed dial or something? Maybe Khalif was doing an internship there 🤷
I don't even see it as a screw up. For one thing, it exposed a few rats. Goldberg certainly just lost all of his saner inside contacts and leakers. Instead of using or slow-leaking inside info to build a reputation as the 'go to' journalist, he cashed it in for a "gotcha" moment AND scared off future potential pipelines.
This one is so weird. We'll have to see if the mistake explanation holds, and maybe it does. I don't use that system, so I don't know how easy it is to see who's active online. I would think someone would have been keeping a record. Susie knows everyone. If she saw the list, she would have caught that. If they wanted something from Jeffrey, they've probably already got it. He supposedly was in a public area probably making a few phone calls while he waited. Was there a car a few spaces away scanning numbers?
Well, the Biden admin. previously had Signal on all their computers and phones and it was the first thing that popped up to be downloaded when Trump's admin. came in. I see a possible "set up" here, to get a talking point for the Dems. If Dems get the House in 2 years, they just might impeach everyone on the call. It's all optics, headlines, talking points and slogans for Dems.
The report is it was Mike Waltz who included Jeffrey Goldberg in the Chat for some unknown reason. I am sure he will be dressed down by Trump and his peers. We probably will never find out why Goldberg was included
First, I expect everyone in the Trump administration is checking to see if Goldberg is on there contact list, if so deleting him. His pool of contacts for Trump inside info just dried up. Second, I would subpoena Goldberg's phone to see who he has been in contact with and sit him down to get on the record info, "did he pay someone" to get inside info.
There should also be an investigation of all staffers that knew of the "group chat " and had access to the list of people on the chat. I believe there was less than 20 individuals on the chat. Seems by process of elimination we can find "how it happened"
Lastly, it seems the Democrats have forgotten the "Security " lapses between 2016 and 2020. From Michael Flynn to Russia Gate Hoaxes, the leaks flowed freely to the press to take down Trump.
If you are in doubt look up John Durham investigation's report.
Yes, John Durham's report shows how cut-throat, underhanded, unconstitutional, unethical and at times, illegal Dems were to "get Trump". Too bad everyone was fatigued with "Russia! Russia!" so they didn't pay attention to his report. Also, he foolishly didn't indict more people. He said it was because biased D.C. juries would (wrongly) let them off the hook (and they did, with the two indictments Durham did do).
Nobody seems to be thinking about the possibility that Goldberg's inclusion was deliberate. If he'd acted on the information it might have saved the lives of some Houthi innocents, allowing for a scrambling evac. The targets were mostly stationary - munitions dumps and rocket launch platforms - so what good would a couple of hours warning be?
And THE ATLANTIC? Nobody had the number of a Mother Jones reporter to loop in?
One thing the reveal has done is to bump up coverage of the Houthi/Yemen stuff and allow for the reveal that the US only has 4% of our shipping passing through the Suez while Europe has 40% of theirs.
"Bailing out Europe again..." was the quote that I've seen most.
I guess that is possible that this was a trap set by the Trump defense team with people who have done intel work on it. From what I have heard, the chat group was very small, just the inner circle of the Trump defense team. But maybe they suspected a mole in that group (someone in the Pentagon?) and needed to positively confirm it. This leak would do it. And just 2 hours before the strike, would not have any significant impact on the mission, even if Goldberg had acted on it. What Pentagon General has been fired in the last couple of days? Or was it Mike Walz himself (Walz has been attributed to have added Goldberg) who is the mole? We will soon find out.
So you are asserting that managers should not be authorized to delegate tasks to subordinates? Would there, for each employee, have both a supervisor AND an interpreter of the tome that bestows the approval authority that the supervisor does not have.
The US claims to promote free passage on the open seas. As a power dependent on imports, that makes eminent sense. In addition, to support the claim as a universal principle in the Pacific against China, it has to be enforced everywhere. A further addition, it supports both Israel AND the Saudis, who were not happy with the previous administration. I believe that I read that the Saudis are increasing oil production, which should help bring down oil prices, which helps both inflation and the Ukrainian peace process by reducing Russian oil revenue. Trump's policies on drilling and refining and transport facilities will take a little time to have an effect on supply, even if the effect on jobs is more visible sooner. The policy is a winner on all Trumpian fronts.
I cannot believe it was on purpose. The price to pay is the perception that the administration had no idea that classified communications were so loosely monitored. It makes them look like Keystone cops, and that is a hefty price to pay for what? For giving advanced awareness of US military operations, potentially placing military lives at risk? On the off chance that a publication hostile to the administration would go public with the information. Imagine the howl if Jeff Goldburg had released the information before the strike!
Having the Atlantic on the message channel was careless and inept. Trying to play the Atlantic by deliberately including them on the message board would be far worse.
Pretty much a first thought of most folks (all who have grasped Trump's trolling prowess) outside of those who are actually PAID to share their learned insights. Methinks perchance they are now being paid to NOT share.
LOL 😂 So let me get this straight: A Trump hating “journalist” for some leftwing rag is “accidentally” included on a group chat with the VPOTUS and other national security advisors and military leaders.. and they don’t say anything bad or illegal, just plan an attack, a single bombing raid to free up shipping lanes for Europe because Europe can not even coordinate a simple small defense of a vital (to them) shipping lane; yet alone mount a WWlll inducing defense of Western Europe assault on Russia in defense of Ukraine…which they have been threatening to do.
The reporter that overhears this “by accident” immediately reports this faux pas to the world 😊
And the take away from all this; is that the Trump administration is incompetent and does not know how to communicate its geopolitical message in secret…
I tend to think Trump world ran a scam on these people, considering how People in Trump’s orbit have been behaving about leaks and disclosures since Trump got the nomination.
His chief of staff doesn’t have time for fools and games. She also shut Vivek down after his post-Christmas rant about lazy Americans.
It makes no sense that they’d openly discuss plans like this with a writer from the Atlantic, who they know isn’t a friendly. It screams out to people who’ve been paying attention ’scam’.
I am just guessing but I don't think it is a scam. More like a carefully orchestrated and choreographed communication for some reason. Think about "How do we tell Russia to take our threats of military action seriously BUT do not take EU/NATO threats of military action seriously" without directly and publicly saying "We are serious but do not take EU/NATO threats of military action seriously"??
It is possible that it it was just as it seems, a careless coincidental mistake...
One thing I learned growing up around the D.C. metro area is that there are few actual "coincidences" and that almost everything is done for a reason. Everybody lies. Its what they lie about that makes the game interesting.
It would be a great way to amplify a press release. “Oh look, that crazy Trump guy is going to stop terrorists from shooting missiles at our Navy and commercial ships”. Watching clown world set to dancing on command is great entertainment.
thank you for much needed perspective; especially the disloyalty shown by the Atlantic and the obvious disparity between Biden/coverups vs. Trump trumpets.
.
We can only guess how many minor faux-pas of this nature the media overlooked with Obama, Clinton, Biden etc.
.
Trumpers must learn to have ZERO trust with media. And when they fail, there must be accountability. Because the Democrats would never show accountability.
How about the guy Who hired Iranian spies and gave them the highest security clearances? Then they refused to fire or arrest her as she publicly taunted her allegiance to Iran as she continued to be paid?
The Atlantic is a major endeavor, written, designed and published for one woman - Laurene Powell Jobs. It is multi million dollar effort to both assuage and enable her Trump Derangement Syndrome. It also seems this "oops" may have been purposeful. No better asshole to play it to than Jeffrey Goldberg.
Don't forget the prominence of another woman-Anne Applebaum-aka the wife of the Polish Foreign Minister. Why do we not regard Poland as a hostile power?
Remember when Joe Biden said publicly that the United States probably wouldn’t take any action if Russia made a minor incursion into Ukraine? That was far more consequential than this chat episode.
“But to me, so far, the story has all the hallmarks of a classic Trump rope-a-dope, his trademarked strategic chaos. There’s the patented Trumpian appearance of minor conflict — a controlled fire — necessary to garner widespread media coverage, and packed with on-brand details helpfully advancing Trump’s agenda of pushing back against the pesky Europeans.” Jeff Childers, coffee & covid Substack
The hatred the Left has had against Trump now for 9-years is inexplicable.
At this point there nothing else to call it but pathological.
It’s not just this most recent “war plans” issue. It’s something new every day.
They must need to keep the big money coastal contributors agitated?
It is also their support of even more war in Ukraine, their antisemitism, the Dem cities literally giving shelter to foreign criminals, the secret gender chit-chats with 3rd graders, their demand for higher taxes, more outright fraudulent spending by every U.S. agency there is, their destruction of personal property, even men harming girls in sporting events.
When in power, while importing millions of illegals, they even tried to pass a National No-ID Voting Law.
There has not been a more destructive force in our country since the democrats continued their support of slavery after our Civil War.
Does anyone now believe today’s Left would not gladly trade the well-being of our citizens, our children and the future of our country, in exchange for their destruction of this Trump?
Excellent and wonderfully full comment. I have an older brother with TDS ever since the escalator. He has grown increasingly bubbled. Neither listening nor responding to any point of view or argument not agreeable to his. So much so, that I had to insist that he agree to at least embrace a foundational virtue of any good and healthy relationship, including the familial. That is, reciprocity.
To that request, he retorted “what the hell is that.” To which I insisted he was smart enough to know what it is. Needless to say, over the last three years since I drew the proverbial line, he has failed to embrace the idea. I refuse to engage until he shows even a whisper of comprehension.
This is a symptom and a resulting pathology of the Left’s reaction to Trump and any mention of him, or the POV of a good many millions of Americans. It is sad because we are both getting old. Life is short, make the most of it. I expend energy happily elsewhere.
And this, more than anything, is why I LOVE Sasha ever since hearing her story about 4 years ago on Glenn Beck, tears of happiness streaming down my face as I drove through the interview. She is a gift for many reasons not the least because she helps me understand that some people can be reciprocal. I can only hope my brother reads her words and finds some akin to understanding.
Bless you Mary and Sasha! And just about every commenter here. Agreement isn’t the thing. It is understanding, curiosity and a willingness for give and take.
When the Libs decided to come for our young children in school and our girls in sporting events they did not inspire 9-years of hatred, they inspired the End of Woke.
The Dems are far from liberal. They are woke totalitarians who demand censorship of truths in order to advance their wretched & clearly false ideology. The actual liberals either stayed home or voted for Trump, the side who believes in free speech, which used to be a hallmark idea of liberals.
Trump's literal "superpower," is his ability to get Democrats to oppose him on just about everything, even when it is detrimental to them. I've seen so many issues, where he gets the Democrats to choose the 20%, losing side of an 80/20 issue 😂
Have not experienced or witnessed that .. and I am firmly in both neighborhoods. (Home in Portland and home in rural Alabama w/Texas family - Portland neighbors literally tremble when discussing politics .. Alabama folks, w/o exception, always laugh. ).
Check the Far Left's refusal to acknowledge the fallacy (formerly) known as Guilt by Association: extremism is automatically justified. For example, "You stand with Trump" automatically means that, if a given issue is 90%-10% in favor of what Trump says, the Demos must adopt the most extreme 10% rather than "stand with Trump". But that doesn't make them extreme? How would that work?
Sounds like a too convenient hack job to me. How did ONLY that guy end up on the chat. And then of course the chicken littles come out of the woodwork saying that IF is was the WORST CASE SCENARIO (which nobody talking about it even really knows other than that yahoo), then it was THE WORST THING EVAH! Fake news on top of minor story.
When I think about the M.O. of Trump and his team, I wonder if it's possible that Goldberg was put on the Signal chat on purpose. No military operations were discussed, no secrets were revealed. The chat was mostly concerned with Europe's not paying its own way. Is this yet another means by which Trump wants Europe to know about the useless Europeans?
Obviously so. (For the unprovable record, I served at the Pentagon in a capacity that coordinated communications w/ the White House for five years from which I can state I would be astonished if it were not deliberate.)
“Bernie and AOC might be mad their Oligarchy tour is being upstaged, but both will be out there soon enough sounding her barbaric yawp.” No doubt.
Bernie and AOC are trying to convince the people that the oligarchy is NOT the democrat party/uniparty but made of Musk and Trump and other billionaires who both achieved fame and fortune by their own labor, and not from the federal government, unlike Bernie and AOC.
Why do people listen to socialists? Bernie and AOC live off the federal government and spend other people’s money – what do they know? Furthermore, socialism has been an epic FAIL throughout history.
But, sadly, too many Americans listen and vote for these hypocrites who know nothing of economics, live the good life off of American taxpayers, and do nothing but stir up frustrated Americans and their emotions: https://lizlasorte.substack.com/p/fight-the-oligarchy?r=76q58
Definitely - as John Fetterman said, the Democrats have their own set of 'oligarchs', including George Soros and Silicon Valley, (although some of them have shifted a bit to the right). I kinda wish the Republicans would mention that little hypocrisy more often.
Just for Jeffrey Goldberg's education, Signal is very secure and highly encrypted end to end. It is what I have heard the IDF uses to communicate battle plans in the field. It was created to allow dissidents to communicate in a repressive regime, without having their conversations intercepted. The mistake was not in using Signal, it was that Mike Waltz somehow had Jeffrey Goldberg in the Chat group. That was pretty stupid. And why would a very conservative Mike Waltz ever have a reason to include Goldberg in anything? That is the bigger question.
This was no accident. The Atlantic buffoon fell right into the trap because he’s so blinded by TDS. He even alludes to it without recognizing he’s been duped. “I had very strong doubts…” and “I also could not believe…”.
Jeff Childers (Coffee and Covid substack) is a lawyer and has a very interesting take on the Signal/Goldberg thing this morning. Worth a read. (I'm not a lawyer so not going to try to summarize!)
This is a screw up and someone should be held to account. But on a scale of 1-100 of National Security screw ups, with the Afghanistan withdrawal being a 95, this is about a 5.

Maybe Khalif was doing an internship there 🤷
Right. I'm not exactly nervous about our national defense because of it. Technical skills of some staff folks maybe...
I don't even see it as a screw up. For one thing, it exposed a few rats. Goldberg certainly just lost all of his saner inside contacts and leakers. Instead of using or slow-leaking inside info to build a reputation as the 'go to' journalist, he cashed it in for a "gotcha" moment AND scared off future potential pipelines.
Right, maybe it is 3D chess with Vance saying, "I'm tired of these pathetic Euros freeloading off of us". Oops, you weren't suppose to hear that.
This one is so weird. We'll have to see if the mistake explanation holds, and maybe it does. I don't use that system, so I don't know how easy it is to see who's active online. I would think someone would have been keeping a record. Susie knows everyone. If she saw the list, she would have caught that. If they wanted something from Jeffrey, they've probably already got it.

Oh can’t agree more! And where was the outrange on the Left of that horrific withdrawal????
First, I expect everyone in the Trump administration is checking to see if Goldberg is on there contact list, if so deleting him. His pool of contacts for Trump inside info just dried up. Second, I would subpoena Goldberg's phone to see who he has been in contact with and sit him down to get on the record info, "did he pay someone" to get inside info.

I had the same thought (maybe not a mistake) and a ‘test.’
Maybe we’ll only know if it was on purpose if Mike Waltz is fired or not🤷🏼♀️
I guess that is possible that this was a trap set by the Trump defense team with people who have done intel work on it.

Or was it Mike Walz himself (Walz has been attributed to have added Goldberg) who is the mole? We will soon find out.
It was apparently a Mike Waltz staffer who added Goldberg's name.
Staffers should not have the ability to do that. Like duh.
So you are asserting that managers should not be authorized to delegate tasks to subordinates? Would there, for each employee, have both a supervisor AND an interpreter of the tome that bestows the approval authority that the supervisor does not have.
Paradox. Paradox, I say.
The Russian Roulette Principle applies: sometimes the consequences are more important than the chances.
His staffer - or his lover?
The US claims to promote free passage on the open seas. As a power dependent on imports, that makes eminent sense. In addition, to support the claim as a universal principle in the Pacific against China, it has to be enforced everywhere.

My thoughts exactly! It was on purpose.
Mine too!
Great minds......... LOL
I cannot believe it was on purpose. The price to pay is the perception that the administration had no idea that classified communications were so loosely monitored.

Trump and his team have learned the Art of The Troll at a very high level. I don't discount anything anymore.
If this was trolling, it wasn't Art.
It was a play on the art of the deal, nothing more.
How so notly?
It’s an Op.
I totally believe the addition was deliberate. This is an intentional dirty trick, either by a mole or someone or a hacker.
Well, it would certainly stupid thing to do "deliberately" since it shows Trump's picks don't know how to handle national security.
Pretty much a first thought of most folks (all who have grasped Trump's trolling prowess) outside of those who are actually PAID to share their learned insights. Methinks perchance they are now being paid to NOT share.
LOL 😂 So let me get this straight: A Trump hating “journalist” for some leftwing rag is “accidentally” included on a group chat with the VPOTUS and other national security advisors and military leaders.. and they don’t say anything bad or illegal, just plan an attack, a single bombing raid to free up shipping lanes for Europe because Europe can not even coordinate a simple small defense of a vital (to them) shipping lane; yet alone mount a WWlll inducing defense of Western Europe assault on Russia in defense of Ukraine…which they have been threatening to do.

The MSM loves the ‘Trump is dumb’ narrative and that just got used against them. Brilliant.
It was definitely a setup. The more I think about it, the stronger that conclusion seems to be.
We’ve all heard of an “honest mistake“. This was an example of a “dishonest mistake. “
Question here is who was being dishonest?
1. The Trump administration faking a text conversation to release information they wanted to get to someone?
2. Or the Democrats putting Jeffrey Goldberg on that text chain so that they could embarrass?
Either would be considered a dishonest mistake 😂
Only The Shadow knows.
It would be a great way to amplify a press release. “Oh look, that crazy Trump guy is going to stop terrorists from shooting missiles at our Navy and commercial ships”. Watching clown world set to dancing on command is great entertainment.
yes, you conclusion is correct.

Bravo Mary!!!
Agree, it’s always about the Benjamin’s.
Where else could AOC and Bernie become multimillionaires?!?
Absolutely, unequivocally agree
I agree, but only equivocally.
Excellent and wonderfully full comment. I have an older brother with TDS ever since the escalator. He has grown increasingly bubbled. Neither listening nor responding to any point of view or argument not agreeable to his. So much so, that I had to insist that he agree to at least embrace a foundational virtue of any good and healthy relationship, including the familial. That is, reciprocity.
To that request, he retorted “what the hell is that.” To which I insisted he was smart enough to know what it is. Needless to say, over the last three years since I drew the proverbial line, he has failed to embrace the idea. I refuse to engage until he shows even a whisper of comprehension.
This is a symptom and a resulting pathology of the Left’s reaction to Trump and any mention of him, or the POV of a good many millions of Americans. It is sad because we are both getting old. Life is short, make the most of it. I expend energy happily elsewhere.
And this, more than anything, is why I LOVE Sasha ever since hearing her story about 4 years ago on Glenn Beck, tears of happiness streaming down my face as I drove through the interview. She is a gift for many reasons not the least because she helps me understand that some people can be reciprocal. I can only hope my brother reads her words and finds some akin to understanding.
Bless you Mary and Sasha! And just about every commenter here. Agreement isn’t the thing. It is understanding, curiosity and a willingness for give and take.
Agree
Hate for the left has been just as high so check your hate before checking others.
When the Libs decided to come for our young children in school and our girls in sporting events they did not inspire 9-years of hatred, they inspired the End of Woke.
This goes beyond that its a total intolerance for anything liberal.
The Dems are far from liberal. They are woke totalitarians who demand censorship of truths in order to advance their wretched & clearly false ideology. The actual liberals either stayed home or voted for Trump, the side who believes in free speech, which used to be a hallmark idea of liberals.
Trump has literally driven them nuts.
Trump's literal "superpower," is his ability to get Democrats to oppose him on just about everything, even when it is detrimental to them. I've seen so many issues, where he gets the Democrats to choose the 20%, losing side of an 80/20 issue 😂
Welcome to politics
The whole “you just hate liberals” thing sounds like the kid who just keeps saying “I didn’t do anything, all the teachers just hate me!” So childish.
Because from what I been hearing its usually the case. Its moved beyond 1-2 issues to EVERY issue, its a moral hate stance on every issue.
When Iran and the Houthi’s soon stop firing on American and European ships, you can give a huge thank-you to President Trump.
In a world where "illiberal" is the opposite of "liberal", "total intolerance for anything liberal" is the opposite of what is happening.
No, just intolerance for murder and insanity.
In your constant search for hate, have you met our commenter Karen?
Have not experienced or witnessed that .. and I am firmly in both neighborhoods. (Home in Portland and home in rural Alabama w/Texas family - Portland neighbors literally tremble when discussing politics .. Alabama folks, w/o exception, always laugh. ).
Check the Far Left's refusal to acknowledge the fallacy (formerly) known as Guilt by Association: extremism is automatically justified. For example, "You stand with Trump" automatically means that, if a given issue is 90%-10% in favor of what Trump says, the Demos must adopt the most extreme 10% rather than "stand with Trump". But that doesn't make them extreme? How would that work?
If I recall right, it was Obama that told his minions to "get in people's faces." 🤔
It was deliberate and the media and Dems swallowed it as planned, almost too easy. Perfect warning to Europe, leaving our ally, Israel, out of it.
Sounds like a too convenient hack job to me. How did ONLY that guy end up on the chat. And then of course the chicken littles come out of the woodwork saying that IF is was the WORST CASE SCENARIO (which nobody talking about it even really knows other than that yahoo), then it was THE WORST THING EVAH! Fake news on top of minor story.
Yeah it seems a litttle too convenient for me, how would it just happen to be the editor of the Atlantic out of anyone else?.
When I think about the M.O. of Trump and his team, I wonder if it's possible that Goldberg was put on the Signal chat on purpose. No military operations were discussed, no secrets were revealed. The chat was mostly concerned with Europe's not paying its own way. Is this yet another means by which Trump wants Europe to know about the useless Europeans?
Obviously so. (For the unprovable record, I served at the Pentagon in a capacity that coordinated communications w/ the White House for five years from which I can state I would be astonished if it were not deliberate.)
“Bernie and AOC might be mad their Oligarchy tour is being upstaged, but both will be out there soon enough sounding her barbaric yawp.” No doubt.
Bernie and AOC are trying to convince the people that the oligarchy is NOT the democrat party/uniparty but made of Musk and Trump and other billionaires who both achieved fame and fortune by their own labor, and not from the federal government, unlike Bernie and AOC.
Why do people listen to socialists? Bernie and AOC live off the federal government and spend other people’s money – what do they know? Furthermore, socialism has been an epic FAIL throughout history.
But, sadly, too many Americans listen and vote for these hypocrites who know nothing of economics, live the good life off of American taxpayers, and do nothing but stir up frustrated Americans and their emotions: https://lizlasorte.substack.com/p/fight-the-oligarchy?r=76q58
Definitely - as John Fetterman said, the Democrats have their own set of 'oligarchs', including George Soros and Silicon Valley, (although some of them have shifted a bit to the right). I kinda wish the Republicans would mention that little hypocrisy more often.
Have you noticed-- Bernie used to slam "millionaires," but now that he IS one, he slams "billionaires."
How is it, that you can be in Congress, making $175,000 per year, and become a multi-millionaire, after 10 years? 🤔
Exactly
Just for Jeffrey Goldberg's education, Signal is very secure and highly encrypted end to end. It is what I have heard the IDF uses to communicate battle plans in the field. It was created to allow dissidents to communicate in a repressive regime, without having their conversations intercepted. The mistake was not in using Signal, it was that Mike Waltz somehow had Jeffrey Goldberg in the Chat group. That was pretty stupid. And why would a very conservative Mike Waltz ever have a reason to include Goldberg in anything? That is the bigger question.
This was no accident. The Atlantic buffoon fell right into the trap because he’s so blinded by TDS. He even alludes to it without recognizing he’s been duped. “I had very strong doubts…” and “I also could not believe…”.
Jeff Childers (Coffee and Covid substack) is a lawyer and has a very interesting take on the Signal/Goldberg thing this morning. Worth a read. (I'm not a lawyer so not going to try to summarize!)
He's great!
Love his writing!
The media won't stop until they start trying them for treason.
