What a major national security fuck-up.
Why is the Trump administration discussing top secret war plans over group chats? Americans deserve answers.
It’s reckless and puts U.S. troops at risk.

American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. theatln.tc/IuULQFiY
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Thank you #CBS and #60Minutes for your effort to right the wrong of the despicable #ExecutiveOrder ending #DEI. Clearly, the cruelty this the point, and the decency shown in the piece about the Marine Band’s scrapped attempt to bring brilliant musicians of color together was breathtaking. 🙏🏼🙏🏾🙏🏿

Dusting off my old Oxford English Dictionary and consulting carefully, I could not find "attack friends and submit to enemies" as a definition of the word "strength."

Hey Little Marco, how does sycophantic capitulation taste?
Nobody should be surprised that our Secretary of State is a pathetic, weak, cowardly piece of shit.

What happened in the Oval today was a complete abdication of American foreign policy and diplomacy and an abject disgrace. Trump and Vance are both profoundly unfit for the offices they hold. This was a dispicable display of wannabe dictatorship. I am stunned. American humiliation in action.

Citizenship for sale! What a grand idea! Only the scummiest criminal wannabe oligarchs need apply. We can be just like Russia!
Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."

@maddow.msnbc.com Thank you for your candor, and for having the backs of your colleagues at MSNBC after this Sunday Night Massacre. I’m deeply saddened by the station’s turmoil - especially at a time of national turmoil. We need some stability - and trusted sources - and it’s being taken from us.

Is it possible that no reporter who’s reached the exalted position of being assigned to the White House had bothered to check the “DOGE” website before arriving to question Musk and Trump about what DOGE is doing & about transparency? They didn’t know that there’s nothing on the site he’s touting?
