Trump Administration Faces Backlash Over Security Breach in Military Chat
A journalist was mistakenly added to a Signal group chat discussing sensitive military plans, prompting scrutiny over operational security and calls for accountability.
- National Security Advisor Mike Waltz admitted responsibility for the error, stating he added journalist Jeffrey Goldberg to the chat but denied intent or knowledge of how it occurred.
- The chat included senior Trump officials and detailed military plans for a strike on Yemen's Huthi militia, which was carried out shortly after the discussions, resulting in at least 53 reported deaths.
- Criticism has grown over the use of the Signal app for sensitive communications, with experts deeming it inappropriate and insecure for such purposes.
- The Trump administration has downplayed the incident, claiming no classified information was shared, while President Trump defended his team and attacked the journalist who exposed the breach.
- Excerpts from the chat revealed disdainful remarks about European allies, further fueling controversy and raising questions about internal attitudes toward U.S. partnerships.
