True, but you ain't gonna talk 'em out of it, kori, for all the rice in China. Their minds are made upPERIOD
Ratcliffe -- who oughtn't to have been using signal from his desk at the CIA in the first place (against the rules) -- deleted the Signal chat days after being ordered to preserve it by a judge.

bad hires, weak leadership
https://www.rawstory.com/pete-hegseth-2671803413/Politico reported Friday that three senior Pentagon officials have now been fired as part of the leak investigation: Hegseth senior advisor Dan Caldwell, deputy chief of staff Darin Selnick and Colin Carroll — who was Deputy Defense Secretary Stephen Feinberg's chief of staff — have all been officially terminated. And Joe Kasper, who was Hegseth's own chief of staff, is now leaving the Pentagon for a separate job in the Pentagon.
With these staffing changes, the top United States military official is now without a chief of staff, a deputy chief of staff and a senior advisor, less than 100 days into his tenure. An unnamed "senior defense official" suggested to Politico that Hegseth made poor choices for who to trust in his inner circle, with another source saying there would likely be more "chaos" to follow in the coming days.
“There is a complete meltdown in the building, and this is really reflecting on the secretary’s leadership,” the source said. “Pete Hegseth has surrounded himself with some people who don’t have his interests at heart.”
Additional firings may be announced soon. According to CBS senior White House reporter Jennifer Jacobs, "at least one uniformed Pentagon official" was also fired in addition to Hegseth's top aides.
One tequila, two tequila, three tequila... War...
Pete's still there!
And that's all that matters.

ordinarily, DOJ would investigate this

Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat.
"according to four people with knowledge of the chat"

Do not fire him, old man.
Don't do it!!!
that many voices from inside the house means Whiskey Pete isn't winning them over
locker room cancer
Eh. The old man is a stubborn SOB...and he's safe; he can't lose again. Won't hurt him an iota to keep the kid...and will be humiliating to him if he fires him. He must know that.
DON'T DO IT!!!
If Hegseth's on the wagon, now might be a good time to fall off
America loves second chancers
That's fine. It's not about that. Trump just can't give (them) anything they want. Nothing. They want that barrel of down in L Sal back up here in the States. Don't do it. No matter what, do not do itPERIOD
They want to hurt the old man, defeat him at any and all moments available.
"Give them nothing. Take from them everything."
Keep the country tore up & apart forevermore.
According to "three US officials with direct knowledge of the exchanges"
Hegseth is cooked, Leavitt's defense of him yesterday was basically that the whole building hates him
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...age-rcna198838Minutes before U.S. fighter jets took off to begin strikes against Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen last month, Army Gen. Michael Erik Kurilla, who leads U.S. Central Command, used a secure U.S. government system to send detailed information about the operation to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The material Kurilla sent included details about when U.S. fighters would take off and when they would hit their targets — details that could, if they fell into the wrong hands, put the pilots of those fighters in grave danger. But he was doing exactly what he was supposed to: providing Hegseth, his superior, with information he needed to know and using a system specifically designed to safely transmit sensitive and classified information.
But then Hegseth used his personal phone to send some of the same information Kurilla had given him to at least two group text chats on the Signal messaging app, three U.S. officials with direct knowledge of the exchanges told NBC News.
If you're right I lose one. You win one.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/u...gnal-chat.htmlDetails about American strikes in Yemen that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared on a commercial chat app came from U.S. Central Command through a secure, government system designed for sending classified information, according to an official and a person familiar with the conversations.
Pete is still there, Winester.

...
“Consistent with my commitment to defend United States forces and to uphold navigational rights and freedoms,” Trump wrote, he directed the Department of Defense to “move additional forces equipped for combat into the Middle East to enhance the defensive capabilities available to United States forces and facilitate necessary military actions. These forces include capabilities for air and missile defense of Israel and of locations hosting United States forces as well as fighter, support, and reconnaissance aircraft to enable strikes on Houthi targets.”

In addition to their attacks on American-owned ships, the Houthis have shot down a number of Reaper drones with surface-to-air missiles, some Russian-made. “The strikes against MQ-9 Reaper drones impair US intelligence and targeting systems and help the Houthis shore up domestic and regional support. And, with the Houthis’ ties to China, Russia, and Iran, downed MQ-9 Reaper drones could end up in the hands of U.S. adversaries,” the Atlantic Council noted. “Tactically, the Houthi shootdowns of MQ-9 drones primarily aim to blind the US intelligence and targeting systems. … Russia has significantly deepened political engagements with the Houthis … Beijing seems to have intensified engagement with the Houthis since mid-November 2023.”
Pete & Repeat went down to the Picketwire. Repeat fell in, who's left?
