Top Trump-administration officials reportedly engaged in a major security breach by discussing war plans in a private group chat where they mistakenly invited Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic. This error potentially violates the Espionage Act, raising concerns about classified material mishandling. Instead of immediate accountability, the administration has adopted a defiant stance, although it is expected that national security adviser Mike Waltz could be held accountable since he reportedly invited the journalist. Speculation about firings underscores the tension within the administration regarding this monumental slip-up.
In one of the most stunningly idiotic security breaches of all time, top Trump-administration officials discussed war plans in a private Signal group chat and accidentally invited Jeffrey Goldberg, editor of The Atlantic, to the conversation.
The group text might have violated the Espionage Act, which criminalizes the mishandling of classified materials, resulting in potential repercussions for national security adviser Mike Waltz.
