President Trump has given remarks supporting National Security Advisor Mike Waltz during an interview with NBC.
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump stood by his national security adviser, Mike Waltz, after The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief was accidentally added to a private, high-level chat on the messaging app Signal where military plans were being discussed.
“Michael Waltz has learned a lesson, and he’s a good man,” Trump said Tuesday in a phone interview with NBC News.
When asked what he was told about how Goldberg came to be added to the Signal chat, Trump said, “It was one of Michael’s people on the phone. A staffer had his number on there.”
Trump said Goldberg’s presence in the chat had “no impact at all” on the military operation.
The president expressed confidence in his team, saying he was not frustrated by the events leading up to The Atlantic’s story. The situation, Trump said, was “the only glitch in two months, and it turned out not to be a serious one.” (more)
The rest of the DC setup is transparently clear. (1) Goldberg held the story until the day before a long-scheduled Senate Intelligence Committee hearing. (2) The SSCI then used the hearing to blast the heads of the Trump administration intelligence silos on the issue of “classified” information in the text messages.
♦ The next act in this well-known performance will be for Democrats to demand the release of the Signal App transcript, if it’s not classified, then there’s nothing to hide.
♦ Public pressure via narrative drum-pounding will continue to increase, until the chat messages are released to congress. [Keep in mind, Jeffrey Goldberg likely already has them.]
♦ Everyone in the chat group will then be told they must recuse themselves from internal silo determinations as to the classified status of the conversation. More public pressure will be generated to achieve this “position of conflict” demand.
♦ The Intelligence Community, without the heads of the silos – likely leveraging the internal investigative agents of the FBI (INSD), will then say the content of the chat was indeed classified, TSCI level. There will be weeks and months of leaks to the media as each granular detail is discussed ad infinitum.
♦ The cabinet members will then face the drumbeat of resignation demands, and/or useful impeachment fodder for ‘lying to congress’ during today’s Senate Select Committee on Intelligence testimony.
At least that should be the anticipated approach by the “Seven Ways from Sunday” group, who operate to defend the interests of the Intelligence Community from agency heads like those who were on the Signal App chat group.
We’ve all watched this play before.
To kill all of that, PDJT should overrule the I C and say No none of this is TSCI level or even TS, and release all of it, and let them whine.
No cabinet member shall recuse themselves, etc.
If it is all out there nothing to leak.
Demands for recusal and impeachment met with pardons if necessary. FJB could do it, why not PDJT?
Then tell the IC and MSM to pound sand.
Oh and by then it will be budget time.
Demand Doge gets to see the ICs budget. And cancels most of it.
The counter punch to all this is……….
Get Pam off her azz and open up investigations into the MASSIVE MONEY LAUDERING AND STEALING OF AMERICAN TAXPAYERS MONEY!
This is a true crime and conspiracy to defraud the American Government and the American Taxpayer.
Why is it so hard for Pam to go on offense?
Calm down! Kash is going to have the FBI take judo lessons. So there’s that!
From Hannity?
Exactly! From Hannity and Hulk Hogan. 😉

“She is inadequate for the job”
She == thee?
While some choose to live, learn and keep improving. Others choose to just exist live while they degrade until they die.
Hopefully the former == thee 😘
Because that’s not the directive she’s received from her masters! Her expiration date passed weeks ago!

it’s not every day I get to post an NRBQ song and have it qualify as on-topic
Only so many ways to write that sternly worded letter and still have time for the next Faux spot.
Perhaps Pammy is only the figurehead AG. Set up to do Fox broadcasts and take all the arrows while Todd Blanche flies under the radar doing all the heavy lifting. When you may only get one good shot, is this the grassy knoll you want her to die on?
This so called “journalist”, jeffrey goldbrick, should be immediately tried for treason and if found guilty, summarily executed. There are two requirements to receive, and review classified information: First, have the proper clearance level and two, have a “need to know”, of which goldbrick didn’t have neither. I don’t give a rat’s rear end, if you don’t meet both of those requirements, it is your duty to relinquish access to them whether they be written, verbal, etc., which he did not. IOW, he did not get off “signal”. If I pulled this stunt that goldbrick did, I would have my clearance pulled, fired and tried.
I would like to know why anyone had that guys number.
My first thought, too? 🧐 hmm…
He should be questioned as to why he didn’t mention he had been added to the chat. An honest person would have declared themselves
It wasn’t classified info according to everyone involved except Goldberg. They mentioned the classified parts were to be discussed on the ‘high computer’ meaning the one used for classified info and discussions.
The usual suspects trying to hype the incident. We have seen this kind of hyper message many times before pushed by the ever complicit media as planned against Trump and his agenda for fixing America.
While this was a serious breach, the questions are who put Goldberg on that call and why wasn’t he discovered while he was there?
Unsolicited opinion:
Prosecute Jeffrey Goldberg for publishing national security information without authorization.
You can’t just scoop up sensitive info on a military base and do what you please just because you found it.
-S Keshel
Amen, Brother!
Yes, I’m confused why the neocons haven’t turned Goldberg into a grease spot like they did with another dual citizen named Awalaki?
Another valid question would be how come Israel hasn’t complained their own citizen is undermining security in their very dangerous must act now region. We have given them something like 250 Billion dollars. 7.5 Billion dollars per month this year and they can’t reign in their own citizen Mr. Goldberg?
Something is very wrong with this narrattive. Our boys are there protecting Israel and the EU supply chain. Who does Goldberg really work for? Who else did he tell? Houthi’s? Lot’s of questions….
Exactly, very true.
Or DOD Hegseth says it was NOT secret intel….he would decide if if was nat’l secrets. And if Hegseth says it wasn’t, it wasnt
From the 20 or so news feeds I monitor, this story seems to be taking side-stage, at least for a spell. I guess we’ll see what the next news cycle does with it.
2 observations. One, does anyone listen to or pay attention to the corrupt congress critters anymore? Honestly the dog and pony shows wore thin over a decade ago. Secondly, could this whole thing have been a leak trap? Find out who was talking to the press? Im not ruling it out. If it is, congress looks even more stupid, if that’s even possible.
First things: fire with prejudice that staffer and STOP using Signal! Waltz and his staffer just provided an attack vector for the deep state. Unforgivable!
And why did the staffer even have Goldberg’s address in his contacts?
Hmmmm…..
My ? Also, there may be an angle to pursue here
To whom does the staffer report?
No, Signal is how they evade being spied on by the IC.
Don’t get tricked into assuming this is just about Goldberg.
Sundance said in a X post that the signal chat was setup by the CIA.
He alludes this was an intentional setup and they were very likely hoping to get really gritty info/secrets discussed which everyone could use to dismantle the Trump cabinet and agenda.
Fortunately, it was about as innocuous as it could have been.
And a major lesson learned for the Team.
Yep – that fits with whoever said today that see eye ay developed Signal in the first place…
Might have been Jack Posobeic, actually… I think someone here posted a short video of his from X in which he mentioned this…
It will make an excellent way to do mole hunts in the future…
Perhaps one motive was to force these high level staffers off Signal, and onto apps that can be monitored by NSA?
Why hasn’t Trump fired all the CIA people?
Last President to seriously contemplate that, found it was a real headache.
Very Estute Dutchman
As usual
I’ve said
(With all due respect to Sundance)

This is a sting operation. . .
It’s the Atlantic. . .

Must we ascribe to malice what might be easier ascribed to error?
I was an early twenties newlywed who made a beeeg mistake at work and caused much damage and costs.
I went to my boss and told him what happened expecting to get canned.
Boss said go figure out what you need to fix it and get parts ordered.
Stunned I asked aren’t you going to fire me???
Boss said are you made a stupid mistake.
Are you going to do it again?
Absolutely not says I!
Well you made your stupid mistake. If I replace you that guy will make his stupid mistake.
You learned your lesson. No more stupid mistakes Mikee. Mistakes happen but no more stupid mistakes.
Best man I ever worked for!
Years later I had the same conversation with employees 😉
“Must we ascribe to malice what might be easier ascribed to error?“
Error me once, shame on you. Error me twice, malice against me.
In this government and this day and age, assume malice and make them prove you wrong.
They’re trying to take out Waltz, like Flynn. But they can’t send the FBI in to “investigate”. And the NSC was deeply compromised in Trump 45 leading to the Ukraine impeachment hoax.
I used the word “might”.
I agree it was probably deliberated but I’m willing to wait and see.
All due respect – the enemy within the gates in this situation has proven themselves so malicious, so many times, that no question of “mistakes” is even worth considering.
No parallel whatsoever to honest young men attempting to do their jobs well.
Answer me why Waltz has Alex Wong, of Covington, within 100 feet of the White House, much less organizing anything?
It wasn’t error. This was a setup. Prosecute.
I will answer that with, why would you have Goldbergs contact on your phone and how many times have you spoken to him? Let’s see your phone logs.
Nice to get a second chance for a real mistake that happens to everyone once in their life or more maybe.
However, ask yourself why was this particular journalist the one whose phone number was added to the chat? Goldberg, an avowed anti Trump, pro left journalist, was THE guy who got ‘lucky’ and got to eavesdrop on these MAGA dept heads discussing a possible move by Trump against the Houthis. Then this lucky reporter held onto the info until the night before the congressional meeting where the administration was to answer questions unrelated to this surprise revelation? Why would he not report it sooner? Very curious. The left wing Dem Senators got to play this political hit job for all its worth today in that meeting. Funny about that timing as SD said, don’t you think?
Hmmm, makes me very suspicious this was done on purpose and I’d like to know who did it and what consequences were given out.
I stand corrected.
Have to remember for those trashing Signal. Anytime someone uses it the demons go crazy because it is too secure for the Intel Community.
Jordan has a point here. Some will disagree.
And more bloviating by phallus-nosed Warner the Smug Leaker…….
Senator Warner should have resigned from congress using his own criteria. Warner checked out a top secret FISA warrant and left it unsecured allowing Wolfe to photograph it and release it to the media. Wolfe was then given a slap on the wrist by Judge Katenji Brown who was rewarded with rewarded with a seat on the Supreme Court.
Ima guessing it was “accidental”, wink, wink, nod, nod.
This was the way it used to happen before X. They can’t get away with this crap anymore.
🎯
Things were going so well and I had no complaints. Now we’re back 2017 reality TV drama which will blow up into something worse. Ugh.
As well he should. It ain’t “Trump” 2017 no mo…
ICYMI amidst all the deliberate distractions
POTUS signs an executive order on election integrity that includes the following provisions:
– Requires documentary, government-issued proof of U.S. citizenship on its voter registration forms.
– Conditions federal election-related funds on states complying with the integrity measures set forth by Federal law.
– Directs the updating of the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines 2.0 and security standards for voting equipment — which includes requiring a voter-verifiable paper ballot record and not using ballots in which the counted vote is contained within a barcode or QR code.
– Directs the Attorney General to enter into information-sharing agreements with state election officials to identify cases of election fraud or other election law violations.
– Takes appropriate action against states that count ballots received after Election Day in Federal elections.
– Revokes Biden Executive Order 14019, which turned Federal agencies into Democratic voter turnout centers.
A good start, killing vote by mail should be the goal.
Trump needs to pressure Congress to create a National Federal Election Day federal holiday. Every American gets the day off to vote.
– photo ID required and mandatory citizenship verification
– must register and vote in their precinct
– absentee ballots only allowed under a few narrow cases (military or first responder, documented hospitalization, poll worker).
– no provisional balloting
– all voting machine data is public property
As a start.
Give workers a paid day off and they’ll quickly forget about mail in voting.
Technically, states could still do mail in voting for state and below ballots, but not Federal candidates.
You can’t get rid of mail-in completely, but they could make it more safe by requiring that the recipient provides ID and signs in the presence of the deliverer and immediately placed in a sealed box or envelope to assure it’s not switched out.
Make it like the super strict absentee ballots of the past. This mass mailing of ballots to every voting age citizen at any address is madness.
All good suggestions. If they are not followed by everyone, somebody is a traitor to their country.
“There are other steps that we will be taking in the coming weeks and we think we’ll be able to end up getting fair elections.”

Anything not enshrined in law is a problem.
Be fun to see if any States turn down the funds. Lol!!
“Conditions federal election-related funds on states complying with the integrity measures set forth by Federal law.“
“Security standards for voting equipment”..
Dear Lord, we have learned nothing.
WTF is wrong with this picture? Why can’t we get away from these machines from hell?
THATS how they pushed the States into taking the machines, in the first place.
They manufactured the crises of Bush v Gore, when in reality the punchcard type voting system was only being used by 4% of districts, and they were phasing it out.
Then, the PROMISED the machines would be faster, and more accurate, and that the Fed. would pay for them.
All sorts of State Election laws were changed, and in order to eliminate machines, those laws will have to be changed back.
Right. Florida Law requires electronic tabulation. Since it’s been well documented most if not all machines are made by the ChiComs with Lord Knows What kind of malware, couldn’t President Trump could ban them like Huawei? Or did that not work?
I remember Rush found out why there was hanging chads. They were trying to punch too many cards at one time. I also remember a LEO drove up to the voting place and started unloading boxes out of the trunk of his car and brought them inside to be counted. May have been Palm Beach County or Broward County, FL. The county that was known to be the most crooked.
Yep.
We are in AZ. just recieved notice we needed to provide a copy of our Birth Certificates, in order to be continued as registered to vote; this is NEW.
Could mail, e-mail or bring in copy to County Recorder.
A step in the right direction…
absolutely
Not an “accident” betrayal from within… wTAF?
The tangled web here is almost too absurd to be coincidental—a Covington alumni landed Waltz in this mess, the same firm that fed @GenFlynn to the wolves.
From 2007 to 2009, Wong served as Iraq rule of law advisor for the U.S. Department of State, designing and managing the department’s efforts to bolster Iraq’s judicial branch and anticorruption agencies.[3] Wong served as the foreign and legal policy director for the Mitt Romney 2012 presidential campaign. In that role, he was the campaign’s chief official responsible for developing foreign, defense, intelligence, judicial, and law enforcement policy and closely advising the nominees on these matters.[3]
Wong was the foreign policy advisor and general counsel to U.S. senator Tom Cotton. He was Cotton’s chief advisor on all issues related to national security, international relations, and law enforcement
From what we know now, no one from the U.S. Govt is showing other govts how to combat corruption; they are showing them how to USE bogus corruption charges to oust from power, anyone who opposes what are percieved to be U.S. interests…
That was my first instinct but I am part gypsy.
I never thought this was “inadvertent.” It was obviously sabotage by someone who should not have been working in the Trump Administration.
I really think we need to put scare quotes around “accidentally”…
Waltz would not be the first Trump National Security Advisor to get framed by the IC. And this is not the first NSC incident that is super sketchy. Is the staffer related by blood, marriage or military department to Alex Vindman, for example.
If this IS the staffer
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1904570021658972209.html
Then either Waltz brought him in knowing the snake was a snake, in order to set a trap (we will see)
Or
Waltz brought in an obvious snake and allowed him to act like a snake, in order to get Hegseth in particular – and if that is the case then Waltz needs his tail tossed out of the WH along with Alex Wong of Covington & Burling, and President Trump needs to bring Gen. Flynn back in as NS Adviser, ASAP
Wong was policy advisor to Tom Cotton for 2 years.
Well that surely is a problem. Spies spies everywhere spies.
I guess we’ll see. Signal provides a means to carry out mole hunts.
Definitely not inadvertent or an accident.
Recuse themselves over a cia sting operation? Recuse themselves when compromised leftist judges are harassing innocent people and officials exercising their lawful rights? I am thinking of Merchan, Graves, et al.
No, those days are over. This nonsense is seen and disposed as of today. The good news is this: we are watching the operation unfold with crystal clarity. It only serves to incense We the People and we become even more determined and solidify behind Trump and his administration.
“we are watching the operation unfold”
while also watching “the systematic destruction of the old guard”.
Moves and counter moves.
Fortunately PDJT has one of the best laughs ever while also having preternatural patience since “he who laughs last, laughs best”.
Pam is worthless
You misspelled Mike Waltz
“Pam is worthless”.
Obviously God disagrees.
And so does PDJT.
Words to the wise or pearls to the swine?
Fortunately, future actions reveal a persons real answer no matter what they say or write.
As a Light Hearted Hamlet (😂😂😂) might put it, “To oink, or not to oink? That is the question.
#😘
Pam Bondi must be doing something right, to warrant the endless 5th gen warfare conducted here daily to try to make her toxic.
Interesting.
Yes, the do give themselves away, with their consistency, don’t they?
You’re right – actually she’s completely worthless.
Biden staffers issue pardons to hardened criminals and no one bats an eye.
What did I tell you yesterday? Of course it was an NSC staffer with access to Waltz’s Signal who made the mistake when adding names to the group chat. Do you believe the National Security Advisor is sitting around pulling together Signal chats himself?
“We also know this from the chat contents themselves: the principals were asked to provide names of deputies for NSC Deputy Alex Wong to pull together for a tiger team. That means he had access to the group chat, and very likely was the one who pulled it together.”
Wong?
Sum Ting Wong.
Given the superb choreographed orchestration of how this all unfolded, there was no mistake.
So who is the staffer and why did s/he have a antiTrump journalist on his/her phone? Second question. Was this really an accident? At the very least the staffer is incompetent. That or s/he is a leaker extraordinaire or worst case, this was a set up to destroy Waltz, Gabbard, Rubio and/or Trump. The “resistence” WILL infiltrate when they can. Insiders can be in resistence, too, and generally do more harm than incompetents. Think Paul Ryan. This staffer needs to be investigated by FBI if not Bongino himself then by TRUSTED agents, maybe whistleblowers. If guilty of doing this deliberstely s/he should be charged to the fullest extent of the law. This smacks of sabotage.
Betcha a dollar the staffer is a she and a deep dive will disclose a Democrat activist.
It was Hegseth who first got blindsided by the press.
Seems like a “get Hegseth” move. Look to the sidelined generals for potential conspirators.
Or a CCP agent.
This guy ??? https://2017-2021.state.gov/biographies/alex-n-wong/
Foreign Policy Advisor & General Counsel to Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.). He was the Senator’s chief advisor on all issues related to national security, international relations, and law enforcement. He was also the Senator’s legal counsel.
Also served as the Foreign & Legal Policy Director for the Romney-Ryan 2012 presidential campaign.
Alex clerked for the honorable Janice Rogers Brown of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Dirty Cotton
They should all go back on the signal app and talk about all the the granular detail on what a corrupt piece of shit Mark Warner is. Classify that.
THis story it the hysteria of the day or the next few days.
We know they want Pete gone so they will go on and on
but I don;t think the sane Public (that anyone who
does not have TDS) will put up with hearing and impeachment
nonsense again over this..in a few day there will be something
new for the dems to be hysterical about.
But someone from out side needs to publically ask
if this was so serious why did the reporter sit on this
till the day before the hearing??
“We know they want”
Fortunately, as DJTs first rally ending song points out, “you CAN’T always get what you want”
especially you’re the derp state AND DJT is once again Americas President.
Thank God!!!
#💖Potus45/47
I suspect it’s because Jeffy was cooking up his very own alternate TDS version of what was said.
Hey, why not a big ol’ Blanket Pardon for all but the reporter. I hear that’s a thing these days! /s
My questions are: Who is this staffer that made a “mistake?” And why does this staffer have the direct contact information for a Leftist wag? Me thinks that given the SSCI assassination squad meeting today that this was absolutely no accident.
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1904570021658972209.html
From the beginning I suspected that this “accident” was deliberate for this very sideshow. Our enemies don’t have a leg to stand on. So, today’s performance. That said, Waltz should go. If he is just kneecapped in the meantime, fine.
MAGA
People react differently to stress. When it comes to “news”that includes PDJT I’ve noticed that one reaction is to pretend to be PDJT’s mommy boss and to start posting what he needs to/should do.
Its a fascinating distraction reaction that’s still unnamed.
An Identity Theft Reaction, perchance?
Screw them ALL!! 🤬
I don’t trust Waltz or whoever he’s friendly with.
IMO PT’s team should admit to whatever mistakes were made including if there was classified material. Deal harshly with the “Leaker(s)” … Minimize the endless Drip, Drip, Drip … and move on.
My guess is that the rest of the cabinet members will be keeping a close eye on their dealings with Waltz in the future. Also, so will President Trump.
Then why on the world keep him around. To what end and purpose ?
“PTs team should admit to whatever mistakes were made”
Perchance another examples of an Identity Theft Reaction?
A possible self protective reaction when hit by what perceived as sressful bad “news” ?
Possibly a mild dissociation reaction ie temporarily adopting an alt persona, in this case, President Trumps daddy boss?
Rather than reacting by pretending, perhaps try praying for everyone in the next stress triggering news story instead?
Many people have learned to react by praying after discovering the famous Serenity Prayer. Hopefully many more will learn to react this way.
#BeBest😘
This is an important point.
And now President Trump has told NBC that it was not Waltz but “one of his people” who added Goldberg to the chat.
Goldberg is a sly beat-up merchant (SBUM), a type well-known in the journalism world, more so in the UK. He also is a rabid anti-Trump political activist, a bad combination.
There are easy tells in the work product of SBUMS. For instance, the only people Goldberg did not name are likely his sources, “unnamed CIA official” and “unnamed NSC officials”. There may be overlap here just to add a layer of disguise.
Somebody who has Goldberg in his/her phone contacts added him – maybe deliberately, maybe accidentally.
It seems absurd that the most destructive, deceptive anti-Trump journalist from the most hostile, sloppy anti-Trump publication could “accidentally” have been added.
There were 150 holdovers from the Biden administration at the NSC when Waltz took over, career staff and detailees from agencies like the CIA, NSA, State Department, and Pentagon. He purged several dozen.
Goldberg’s boss, Kamala buddy and billionaire- by – widowhood, Laurene Jobs, also is a leftist activist most fervent about “immigration” matters.
Has a canary trap been sprung? Jus’ wunderin’.
How about “As POTUS, I am the ultimate detirminer of Classification, and I have detirmined there was no breach or release of Top Secret information. No military personelle or operations were jeoparised.”
This is not going to be 2016 redux. Case in point, Waltz still has his job. They tried a maneuver that worked on Lt. General Flinn. Not so much this time. Watch for the Trump boomerang.
Times they are a changing.
I’m wondering if this is somehow a boomerang play by PT?
Meaning signal is an encrypted secure communication vehicle, right?
But the DS for the past 6-8 years has also used Signal as their primary communications tool, right?
So has PT tempted the DS to demand the signal COMMS be turned over most likely by a judge and thus PT now has a judicial ruling precedent that also allows PT team to gain access to THEIR Signal COMMS and my bet is their Signal COMMS have a whole lot more criminality acts on it that this Houthi Comm?
so is this a possible Boomerang play?
POTUS needs to be more aggressive here. They must be always on the ropes without a way to go on offense. Nip this nonsense in the bud with Mike Waltz. The Pam Bondi show does not inflict pain upon the enemy. Got to get more serious and severe. They showed blood in the water, now the sharks will move in for the kill.
The MSM trying to control the narratives. Dumbazz mistake but move on.
all of these agencies have significant deep-state staff in the mix. Some may strike-out and do nothing for the bureaucracy, while others deliver some serious blows to team Trump.
Trump can stand by Walsh. That’s cool with me. I hope he is aware that the deep-state is everywhere and they just let him know it through one of their paid fake journalist idiots.
This was the deep-state/uni-party letting Trump know they aren’t afraid of him or his people. They aren’t going away without a full-on war.
So the person who supposedly added the journalist to the Signal group chat, Alex Wong, was an attorney for Covington & Burling, one of the law firms that Trump included in his EOs about government contracts and security clearances.
Interesting.
Wow – great find, Clarion! Gee, with a resume like that, why would anyone think this guy might be a Neo-Con DS plant? /sarc
Did Waltz choose Wong (pun)? Or if he was recommended to Waltz. Cotton?
He worked for Bush? All I need to know…..
Poor resume for this Administration to have access to anything……
And clerked for the honorable Janice Rogers Brown of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Assuming it was Wong and he works for the deep state, also assuming that Wong has a staff that helps him.
With Wong’s resume, it seems that his handlers wasted this resource, one that was one hop away from President Trump’s inner circle. This gives me doubts that it was Wong himself that did the deed, his office, yes, it may have been someone on his staff, making them two or three hops away and much more expendable. I would not stop looking with Wong but would dive deeper into his staff.
A Lawn Cheney.
Using that other Trump staffer’s J.G. initials for Goldberg was a little too cute by half.
And evidence of guilt.
Wong is probably right… but, Don’t cruise past this fellow Brian McCormack (identified himself as representing the NSC in the Goldberg article) who is the current COS to Waltz. Do a Grok on Brian McCormack’s known history birth till present. Lockstep ties to the OG PNAC crew. Was in last Trump Admin. probably invited in by Bolton, but worked on Energy with Rick Perry. Personal aid to Vice President Dick Cheney from around 2001 to 2003. He later served in the Department of Defense under Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, including as a Special Assistant to Ambassador L. Paul Bremer. His connection to Victoria Nuland is also direct, as both served under Cheney during overlapping periods, with Nuland as Principal Deputy National Security Advisor from 2003 to 2005.
So blocking Daniel Davis as Tulsi Gabbard’s deputy is intended to allow the installation of a deputy that will knife Tulsi in the back when the time arises ?
Either the release came from a trusted staffer by mistake or a mole…this needs to be ferreted out…
No change in anything…let the lefty blowhards pontificate that the sky is falling…
Before these blowhards had the MSM at their back and amplified the story…now their power has been reduced…
Walz is on probation…no more f’ups or you are out…
I wonder if they are letting the Dems rant and rave and then prove it was not their error. I watched a few minutes of the hearing and they are insane. My opinion is they are using this as a diversion for their theft of taxpayer money.
Thinking through the implications of this orchestrated event – the Senate Intel Committee will demand Trump’s team stop using Signal, an end-to-end encrypted communications platform. They clearly have no way of spying on those discussions.
I think that is a major bonus for the usual suspects. Globalist elements within the Intel services want complete knowledge of the cabinet’s private discussions. Signal prevents that desire.
Watch closely as the Democrats and RINO allies start demanding the administration completely stop using Signal.
And, while this “Signalgate” story drags out as a nothingburger, its also a “look, squirrel!” to distract from what else is going on…
Including that Sanctions against Russian Fish & Fertiliser are being dropped, transactions for same can now be run thru SWIFT system, Insurance for ships carrying them can be normalised, …
No, its not a peace deal, not yet,…but its still a big deal and primarily between the U.S. and Russia, with Ukraine being dragged along..
Wow! The President immediately goes back on offense. Peep the https://x.com/RapidResponse47 X/twitter feed to see the blitzkrieg of executive orders President Trump issued today as well as statements provided by Walz regarding SignalGate etc.
When you’re dealing with Democrats, you need to positively destroy them publicly and immediately, for any criticism or insult, regardless how petty! That’s what they do, it’s the only way they know and it’s the only thing they respect as power!
ID the staffer. fire them, is it a deep-state mole?
