Journalist publishes every damning text from war plans leak
(www.thedailybeast.com)
It’s so wild that they are very demanding of touchpoints up front but totally clueless about everything throughout the chat…
We are currently clean on OPSEC
While actively leaking information lmao
Dude literally looks like the bad guy's top henchman that dies super easily after meeting the main character.
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.
"If we discussed dropping a building on a terrorist we should also discuss bombing weddings, so let's stick to using proper communication channels and following proper protocol for records"
These dumbfucks have no empathy. They will tell you empathy is weakness. In reality empathy is a social defense mechanism. If we all have empathy for each other it limits the harm we do. What they're missing is not having it isn't some kind of advantage, historically we are the most savage to those without empathy. It causes the mob to turn their empathy off and give in to their worst impulses. They think they'll be the first ones in history to avoid that fate. They won't.
Look at what JD "couch fucker" Vance wrote. Regarding potentially delaying the strike. He didn't give any shits about the benefits or risks to lives, only the optics (oil prices going up), politics and his hatred for helping Europe.
Sure, clearing the shipping lanes is "good" but it's more helpful to Europe "gross" so that's a tick "con" colum.
Their "worst case scenarios" were all "it could look bad".

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.
Oh wow, proof it also has disappearing messages enabled.
I don't know the legality of the messages being able to disappear, but the fact it's enabled is a clear cut violation of the law.

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
Lying about sleeping with an intern - impeachment
Lying about sharing classified information on an insecure group chat - “he’s just a widdle guy 😢”
