Protocol is clear. Every single official on that Signal chain needs to hand over their mobile devices.
Pete Hegseth, JD Vance, Marco Rubio—all of them.
This is a matter of national security and the rule of law.
If it were anyone else, Republicans would call for this too.

Who needs three co-equal branches of government? JD Vance says he and Donny can ignore court orders. And Congress' power has already been pruned ever since Mike Johnson bent the knee. My latest cartoon on Pepperspectives. davidpepper.substack.com/p/jd-vance-a...

Ann Telnaes resigned after the Washington Post editorial page killed her cartoon. It’s worth a share.

America is not perfect. Far from it. But there are ideals worth fighting for, values worth pursuing, even when we fall short. Don’t abandon it to the totalitarians.
