#Republican Rep #DonBacon of #Nebraska spoke after #TheAtlantic published the screenshots from the #Signal “Houthi PC small group” texts.

Bacon, a retired #AirForce general, scoffed at #Hegseth’s assertion that no war plans had been shared on the text chain.

“That’s baloney,’ Bacon told reporters.” Just be honest & own up to it.”

Ok folks, it’s now 45 mins after the 4PM ET #Trump Press conference. He is a no-show.
🤬 Coward.

Defense Secy #Hegseth called his disclosure a “team update” meant to “provide updates in real time, general updates in real time.” He didn’t address how a disclosure that he released 30 mins before flights took off & 2 hours before the fighter jets began strikes was “real time.”

#Defense Secy #PeteHegseth did not apologize Wednesday for disclosing on a #Signal chat what time American fighter jets were taking off & launching strikes against #Iran-backed #Houthis in #Yemen. Instead he relied on the #semantic argument that his disclosures, which also relayed specific times that a “strike window” for F-18s would begin in a chat that inadvertently included a journalist, were not “war plans.”

Besides being a #drunk #rapist, #Trump #Defense Secy #PeteHegseth is a total idiot, on full display in this video.

Aside, note the general he names behind him, immediately turns because he doesn’t want to associated w/this jackass.

Asked if the info shared in the #Signal chat was classified, #Rubio said, "Well, the #Pentagon says it was not. And not only did they said it was not, they made very clear that it didn’t put in danger anyone’s life or the mission. There was no intelligence information. And understand, when this story first broke, they were sort of alluding to, were there war maps? ... There were no war plans on there."

#Rubio said he contributed 2X — 1st when he identified his chief of staff as his point of contact & 2nd when he congratulated the team after the attack on the #Houthis.

"I’ve been assured by the #Pentagon & everyone involved that none of the information that was on there — though not intended to be divulged. Obviously, that was a mistake & that shouldn’t have happened. But that none of the information on there at any point threatened the operation or the lives of our servicemen.“

Secy of #State #MarcoRubio said in remarks today in Jamaica that someone made a “big mistake” adding #TheAtlantic's editor-in-chief to the #Signal chat that contained info about a #military attack on the #Houthis in #Yemen.

Unlike everyone else in the #Trump admin, he didn’t defame #JeffreyGoldberg.

"Obviously, someone made a mistake. Someone made a big mistake & added a journalist. Nothing against journalists, but you ain’t supposed to be on that thing," Rubio said.

#TheAtlantic / #JeffreyGoldberg screenshots first show #Witkoff contributing to the #Signal group chat on Saturday, after he left #Russia & returned to the #US, with a stop on Friday in Baku, #Azerbaijan; however that does not mean he wasn’t opening the app & reading the thread.

#DeltaChat supports group chats up to 1000 members when using #Chatmail servers

Possible that classic email servers will have a lower limit, though. e.g., Gmail docs say 500 is the limit for an email

#Signal groups are also limited to 1000 members

#Witkoff did not confirm in the post whether he had been using #Signal on a govt device or personal device. But when recounting why he was silent for portions of the group chat discussion, Witkoff said it was "because I had no access to my personal devices until I returned from my trip."

Witkoff's post also comes after Sen #AdamSchiff sent a letter to #Gabbard & him requesting info about their use of Signal & travel by March 31.

#Witkoff denied having a personal device w/him during his trip to #Russia, saying in a social media post that he had only a govt-issued secure phone during his travels & suggesting that was why he did not comment in the group chat for a period of time.

Witkoff's post was responding to an op-ed in The WSJ, which referenced media reports about Witkoff "receiving these messages on the commercial app while in Moscow."

"...upon the arrival of newly installed senior military officials in February they were asked to install Signal on their government phones. There had already been instances where newly appointed Trump officials attempted to bring their personal phones in secure areas.

It definitely was no glitch that Signal was used. "Leave No Trace, nothing that can be used as evidence against us" seems to be the motto.

In testimony before congressional committees both the head of the CIA and the National Security Agency testified that no classified info was disclosed during Signalgate.
Time for another update of the Gulf map.

This is how this asshat dresses when he travels to address active duty military.

Now he's justifying his bad actions.

#Signal should announce, “Hey, everyone, we don’t want officials of the US Government and henchmen to Trump/Putin to communicate in our app to avoid going through official channels which by law must be retained. Our app is not going to be the app that a bunch of idiot fascist cowboys are going to use to finish off the Project 2025 takeover of America, so we are shutting down Signal for everyone indefinitely. Blame Trump.”
