Overview

• National Security Advisor Mike Waltz mistakenly added journalist Jeffrey Goldberg to a Signal group chat discussing U.S. military operations in Yemen.
• The group chat included high-ranking officials like Vice President JD Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and reportedly contained operational details of the March 15 airstrikes on Houthi rebels.
• The White House and intelligence officials testified that no classified information was shared, but concerns persist over the use of non-secure communication platforms for sensitive discussions.
• Democratic lawmakers are demanding resignations and investigations, while Republicans express concern but largely defend the officials involved.
• President Trump defended Waltz, calling the incident a minor 'glitch,' as Senate hearings continue to probe the security breach and its implications.
