If you’re watching @maddow.msnbc.com’s A Block you understand that people who stand up for other people can change the course of those people’s lives & our history. We have the power to refuse Trump’s path forward. Protesting actually works. Let’s go.

Hegseth is literally denying a story that the NSC has already confirmed and in which receipts were printed verbatim.

Remember this the next time he impugns another journalist.
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

Over 18 years of my 25 year career with the Federal Government, I had a TS-SCI clearance. I started in the Navy with secure communications. I worked to make sure our military Operations onboard ships were secure. In addition I worked in SCIFs which is where these conversations should be taking place
How many Signal chats with sensitive information about military operations are ongoing within the Pentagon right now? Where else are war plans being shared with such abject disregard for our national security?

We need answers. Right now.
