Reporter: Can you share how your information about war plans was shared with a journalist?

Hegseth: So you are talking about a deceitful and highly discredited so-called journalist who has made a profession of peddling hoaxes pic.twitter.com/JXegFXbdpP

“Hoaxes”

The WH has already confirmed the authenticity of the text chain. https://t.co/0w1rJPIaYB

Same thing he said when all the stories broke about his affairs, and his drinking on the job, and the sex assault case, and his behavior at strip clubs, and the financial mismanagement of his charities. https://t.co/t5rcbJLwMx

“Who cares? This is government being transparent!”

Nope. This happened by accident. Anyone with a top secret security clearance knows they shouldn’t text specific plans to bomb another country over text. And btw the Signal chat was set to “disappear” - yet another violation!

“The president knew. He was just trolling.”

Trolling? More like not taking accountability- just like his SecDef who tried to dodge and deflect when asked about this.

He should never have been confirmed and should be fired immediately. https://t.co/bd7W4LtuzA

Hawley: This is what the leftist media reduced to. So now we are griping about who is on a text message and who is not. I mean, come on. pic.twitter.com/rDeQLuzbvy

Pretty sure that’s this guy’s 👇 defense.

No way this guy accidentally leaked war plans in a text message pic.twitter.com/E7YOIqbtYP

Or this is:

Reporter: Why were those details shared on signal?

Hegseth: Nobody was texting war plans pic.twitter.com/o55kGHgPDA

Goldberg: The Secretary of Defense seems like a person who is unserious and is trying to deflect from the fact that he participated in a conversation on an unclassified messaging app that he probably shouldn’t have participated in pic.twitter.com/3WlwMo3KbM

Pretty damn much.

As usual, the fallout is the best part.

Yet somehow everyone knows about it.

The reason that no one in that Signal group chat said “hey we probably shouldn’t use this” is because they are using it for everything. They don’t want us to see what they are doing or be able to FOIA records. Signal is how they are operating. It’s against the law but they don’t give a shit.

Hegseth needs to go under oath before Congress ASAP. Republicans need to at least try to pretend to put country over party for once.
