Summary
Trump defended National Security Adviser Mike Waltz after journalist Jeffrey Goldberg was accidentally added to a Signal chat discussing Yemen military plans.
Trump dismissed the incident as a minor mistake, saying Waltz had “learned a lesson.”
Democrats criticized the security breach, demanding an investigation into the use of unapproved messaging apps for classified information.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and White House officials denied sharing classified material, calling the chat a “policy coordination” effort.
What lesson did the military and intelligence communities learn?
You cannot expect a man who took classified documents and stored them in a golf resort bathroom to take any aspect of national security seriously.
No, he is a spy-genius: who would think to search for secret data in a golf resort bathroom? Deep strategic planning! Round belly. Agent Trump. Donald Trump. Codename 885.
Or we could hire professionals with experience that don’t have to “learn lessons” with national security intel.
Trump hired amateurs and fired staff that had experience. This is a federal government run like a school project.
School projects are designed to result in the participants learning something in the end.
This clown is literally incapable of learning.
This guy is a professional. He’s been in the national security game for decades.
With that in mind, I kind of suspect that he added the journalist intentionally to draw attention to the insane comments against our closest allies.
I’m pretty sure that all happened after he was added to the chat
The silver lining to this descent into fascism is how pathetic it is, make sure to keep laughing, it is an acid that eats away at a forced serious tone of fascism.
Yeah, I was afraid that this time Trump would’ve hired people that knew what they were doing, but luckily he didn’t. They’re still dangerous ideologies and the roadmap they have in project 2025 is still scary as fuck tho.
Hegel remarks somewhere that all great, world-historical facts and personages occur, as it were, twice. He has forgotten to add: the first time as tragedy, the second as farce.
Just like that idiot Susan Collins said Trump had learned his lesson.
SEND COPS
If he were capable of any learning or even reflection, he wouldn’t have been part of the Trump admin
Susan Collins is satisfied
Permissiveness instead of consequences. A family value I’m sure the Donvict learned from his father and then reinforced by leaders who should know better, like US Senators. This is how you get a spoiled king in charge of your country.
Nevermind including a reporter in the group chat. Can we talk about why these people are using a commercial service to hold classified discussions in the first place? Like, isn’t bombing another country SCIF-type stuff? Isn’t that stuff subject to the Federal Records Act?
It’s so they don’t have to follow official records keeping policies.
More likely it’s so they can use their personal phone to show the conversation to their Russian bosses without needing to bypass security measures.
Where’s the “lock him up” from the party of law and order? Oh yah that’s right. . .
Buttery males!
Lol what does this mean? I keep seeing it.
Republicans were constantly screaming “But her emails!” when Hillary Clinton used email

Ah yes, the “Susan Collins” approach
Maybe people burning Tesla’s are all learning lessons, too.
He’s so good at teaching people a lesson… Like to take your voting rights serious…
LoOK HOw EFfICiENt wE aRe!
