    As B1 endlessly quotes this website, which has ONE active writer, a Mark Steffen, so no different to quoting anybody here on ET, he either is Mark Steffen or is his lover.

    Trump is pissed at Mike Waltz. For the text blunder? No, for having the phone number of the Atlantic editor-in-chief saved.

    Trump was ‘p*****’ at Mike Waltz for the text blunder - and his anger was fueled by more than just the leak: report
    Behind closed doors, the president reportedly was angry Waltz had the phone number of the editor-in-chief saved

    But -- not to worry -- Trump found who to blame it on. It was a "staffer" of Mike Waltz who did it all.

    The Republicans want to get this mess behind them asap.

    For certain, Goldberg should not have been invited to the group. However, no war plans or classified material was disseminated.----The real issue here is that Goldberg did not identify that he had erroneously been invited and furthermore that he decided to speak publicly about this in a thinly veiled braggadocio attempt. This was extremely anti-American that he kept himself included in the group. Fortunately, no war plans were revealed.

  10. So now we're going to play, depends on what the definition of is, is? More than a little disingenuous to pounce on the left every time they play that game and then give the republicans a pass.
    See 1:20 in the video. That looks pretty specific to me. Was that an actual "war plan"? Well, no, not technically. Was this technically classified? Maybe, maybe not, depends on which side of the political isle you're asking. They weren't exactly planning a D-Day invasion of the Houthis, but it's very specially giving detail of an air strike. We all know that is not something they would want to be public knowledge BEFORE the actual strike. If this happened under the Biden administration, you, me, and every other person other than the extreme left would be skewering his ass, and rightfully so.
    This was a colossal fuck up. No excuses will do. Would it have been nice if Goldberg interrupted the messaging and identified himself? Sure. Here in the real world that will never happen. No reporter, left or right, would pass up the opportunity to see what they can see and then use it to bludgeon the other party.
    If this wasn't an outright hack by some nefarious source and simply an oopsie, somebody needs their ass canned.
