Late-night hosts, including Jimmy Kimmel, heavily criticized the Trump administration for its attempts to downplay a recent Signal group chat leak involving senior officials discussing war plans. Kimmel emphasized the administration's hypocrisy, recalling their previous criticisms of others for communication mishaps. He noted the absurdity of officials, like Mike Waltz, maintaining public Venmo accounts amidst serious security concerns. Despite the administration's claims of transparency, the overall portrayal pointed to incompetence in managing sensitive information, which Kimmel argued was a significant issue warranting extensive media coverage.
There's no good excuse for what happened. And no one is going to be disciplined for it. But what do you do in a situation like this?
If this is a non-story, why are you all still covering this story? Because it's a big story, Kimmel continued.
Even Matt Gaetz was like, how can you be so careless? Security issues aside, isn't it a little disturbing?
The administration has been incredibly transparent about this entire situation. Yeah, that's the problem.
