"...we are reviewing how an inadvertent number was added to the chain"

THAT'S what they're reviewing? They're not reviewing how a non-sanctioned app was used to send top secret government information? How this was clearly done on non-secure devices?

And yet they'll still complain about #HillarysEmails

Of course, the White House claims no classified data was shared. What else would they say?

Calling Goldberg's coverage of this monumental and unprecedented OPSEC fail by a US presidential administration "sensationalist" is beyond the pale. Given the volume of sensitive information shared with him unsolicited via Signal, Mr. Goldberg's reporting demonstrated that he exercised remarkable restraint in not publishing a great deal of what he was given.

Whether it's sending Com kids in to monkey with taxpayer databases, setting up Starlink antennas on top of the White House complex for "faster Wi-Fi," or granting TS/SCI clearances to anyone without a thorough background check, this administration’s overall approach to security measures is to go around them, or just pretend they don’t exist for a good reason.

The administration is really hoping they can just sweep this one under the rug. That can't be allowed to happen, because this is not going to be an isolated event.

From the NYT:

"Two of the Trump administration’s top intelligence officials denied that classified information was shared in an encrypted group chat in which details of an attack on Yemen were discussed in the presence of a journalist who had been mistakenly added to the conversation."

"The Senate Intelligence Committee is holding a previously scheduled briefing on global threats with Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence; John Ratcliffe, the C.I.A. director; and the F.B.I. director, Kash Patel. Pressed repeatedly about the security breach, Ms. Gabbard and Mr. Ratcliffe both denied that classified material had been shared in the chat. Mr. Patel declined to say if the F.B.I. had begun an investigation."

"The White House also sought to downplay the serious nature of the extraordinary security breach, as bipartisan criticism of the incident grew on Tuesday and leading Democrats called for the resignation of the national security adviser, Michael Waltz, who set up the group chat, and the defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, who reportedly shared classified war plans in it."

Here are the latest developments:

Defending Waltz: President Trump defended Mr. Waltz, saying in an interview with NBC News that the national security adviser had “learned a lesson” and suggested a staff member was to blame for including a journalist in the secret group chat.

Bipartisan criticism: The vice chairman of the intelligence committee, Mark Warner, Democrat of Virginia, denounced what he called “sloppy, careless, incompetent behavior” by the country’s top intelligence officials. Representative Don Bacon, Republican of Nebraska and a senior member of the Armed Services Committee, told reporters that the White House should “be honest and own up” to what happened.

"Damage control: The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said no classified material was sent to the group chat, and she attacked the journalist who revealed it, Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic, as “sensationalist.” Her statement came a day after Mr. Hegseth suggested the leak was a “hoax” even as the White House confirmed that messages he sent to it appeared to be authentic."
