Raw Story · White House forced to intervene again after Hegseth sets off alarms at Pentagon: reportBy Tom Boggioni

No action has been taken to date. #yemen #houthis #defense #military #classified #documents #secret thehill.com/policy/defense/541 #trump #maga #corruption #military

No one in Waltz' Senate confirmation hearing has differentiated between Signal and the app that Waltz & War Criminals were actually using, which intentionally breaks Signal's security model.

She finished the story and shared it with her colleagues. “And then I went back and I read it again, because I was like, What the f-ck,” Whittaker tells TIME. “It had all the elements of a soap opera.” A month later, the New York Times reported U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had used a separate Signal chat to share similar details about military strikes.
