A CIA spokesperson asked us to withhold the name of John Ratcliffe’s chief of staff, which Ratcliffe had shared in the Signal chain, because CIA intelligence officers are traditionally not publicly identified. Ratcliffe had testified earlier yesterday that the officer is not undercover and said it was “completely appropriate” to share their name in the Signal conversation. We will continue to withhold the name of the officer. Otherwise, the messages are unredacted.

The news outlet these fucktards accidentally leaked their detailed operational plan and timeline to...

... is still excersizing better OPSEC than the actual head of the CIA.

Watch this clip of Mark Kelly with some pretty on point questions for Gabbard and Ratcliffe, listen to their responses, and go read through the full text chat.

Watch more of the hearings.

I think there's a pretty decent case Tulsi actually fucked up enough in her testimony that she actually did a perjury, Ratcliffe however, was both a bit more conciliatory and ever so slightly more honest, and also a bit better at just giving 'I don't recall' answers.

So many people talking about the fact that this leaked, and not enough are talking about what leaked.

We have political leaders throwing up fire emoji's over dropping a building on a terrorist, with no regard for the, what, dozens? of innocent lives that were lost in the crossfire.

If you have to kill someone, sure, that's a moral position we can discuss. No one should ever be celebrating it, particularly when others died in the process. But hey, they're not Americans, so they don't count.

My favorite quote is the one where he says it could leak lol

"...If this leaks we look indecisive"

Try incompetent beyond reason. This clown world is funny if people weren't dying.

Lmao Waltz saying he is going to try and figure out "how the heck he got into this room" and then the first text screenshot literally says "Michael Waltz added you to the group" is so goddamn hilarious to me.

So yesterday they lied to congress more often than they told the truth? So many "I don't recall" when in fact they could pull it up on their phone and know? Traitors to American families every one of them

So thankful we avoided GeNoCiDe JoE!

This is way better! …but then again, the world is only black or white… so maybe not. I guess the internet wanted this and so here we are.

Well, we all knew they would be damning as fuck and they are damning as fuck.

How they goaded him into releasing those damning as fuck texts instead of just saying "sorry, we fucked up" is beyond me but here we find ourselves.

Feel like they're gonna throw Hegseth under the bus now.

Jesus Christ, they're just so fucking stupid. This is the kind of thing that would see employees of a major corporation fired in an instant, but I just know that these careless chucklefucks are going to be in my news feed for a while yet, possibly another four years so long as they keep currying the favour of Trump. This shit is pathetic, the rest of the world is embarrassed on behalf of American citizens for having to deal with this incompetence.

This is beyond bat shit nutz. We gotta throw these idiots in prison NOW. There’s so much more in those texts and 3 times more people involved. Also these dumb fucks lied under oath yesterday! Can’t be trusted, way under qualified and they’re territorial to this country. What happened to “common sense”? Always fucking Opposite Day with these clowns. Throw them in prison!

They dropped the guy’s girlfriend’s apartment building on him to kill him.

Hope it was a townhouse and not a tower.
The fucking disregard for human life.

For the Atlantic article https://archive.is/2025.03.26-131842/https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/signal-group-chat-attack-plans-hegseth-goldberg/682176/

They waited till he entered his girlfriends apartment building?... seems on point for the military. How many people died? I think someone said 53? And was that guy the only target? So many deaths for one dickhead...

Not sure about legality, and not that the US military care, but confirming someone id, and that he is visiting a gf or family member, then bombing the house, sound like a war crime.

Whatever... Exactly zero consequences...

GO FULL WAR THUNDER GO

if this were any other regime, they'd be facing jail time for using a non-approved messaging app. But this is the year of the trumptard, so they will face no consequences.

Ten Bezos Bux says nothing will come of this.

This is becoming a theme stretching back multiple administrations. The people at the top either don't understand IT acceptable use policies, cybersecurity controls, classification divisions of systems, records retention policies, etc; or they are intentionally ignoring them. And for bonus points, everyone at this level is an espionage target.

Whiskeyleaks going absolutely ham over here lmfao

We are currently clean on OPSEC

While actively leaking information lmao

If there's one thing that "both sides" agree on, it's that it's ok to murder people in Yemen. Just don't mess up the genociding with poor OpSec, because that's a problem. smh.

These people won't get in trouble because they're serving fascism. It doesn't matter if they leak their wacko plans because they're attacking impoverished non-white people on the other side of the planet.

They shouldn't be doing any of that on Signal anyway.
