The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
-
Unfortunately, they predicted a bad actor getting access to their server/devices. Reality is even stupider since someone accidentally included a journalist in their classified group chat.
I said breached, not by whom.
But yes. It's objectively more hilarious than a malicious actor ever could be.
Like no one had to do anything.
Sheer incompetence did them in. -
These guys aren't even playing 2D chess... 1D chess, snakes and ladders?
They're playing tic-tac-toe and losing even though there is a full-proof strategy to never lose at it.

Sure.
I mean, you could have said that about dozens of things per day over the last 2 months, and each one of them would have been more likely to get him removed from office than this. But, sure.

They want to show that they really believe in those bullshit prayers, that they are good Christians or something like that. When behind the scenes they don't give a shit about religion.
They're at least being performative with each other.

Zuck has to be pissed it wasn't WhatsApp.
Signal: so good even people who hate privacy use it!

This stupid story has r/conservative actively chiding the trump administration. Lol
the russian trolls in that sub will whip them into shape soon.

this is why you shouldn't text while drunk.
and shouldn't drink on the job.
and shouldn't employ peter cunting hegseth.
hesgeth is what you call a "functioning" drunk.

U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

No he's what you can a drunk, he's not functional I'm not even sure how you could buy that illusion from the constantly sweaty red faced man.

A few interesting snippets from the conversation.
nobody knows who the Houthis are – which is why we would need to stay focused on: 1) Biden failed & 2) Iran funded.
Always blame the previous admin.
But, we can easily pause. And if we do, I will do all we can to enforce 100% OPSEC”—operations security.
[...]
In his text detailing aspects of the forthcoming attack on Houthi targets, Hegseth wrote to the group—which, at the time, included me—“We are currently clean on OPSEC.”
LoL, the irony.
VP: I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s PATHETIC.
Well, fuck you too Vice President JD Vance and US Secretary of defence Pete Hegseth.
VP: I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s PATHETIC.
These idiots actually believe their own propaganda. We're truly fucked

This is one of those things where if the left had the capacity to practice messaging discipline and media coordination they could repeat everyday for the next two months with brutal consequences for the right-wing administration.
But this will be forgotten about by tomorrow
-
I saw someone post a comment somewhere else in this post something that might be plausible:
You think now that they sent him classified information that his phone and any devices he ever touched are now confiscated?
Good thing he's not like a journalist with sources. Total accident too. Mistakes happen

You mean the mods?

This is why, when Trump casually drops WW3 threats, I'm over here wondering who here is actually going to try and run this war of his.

They can’t trust each other, so they all have to keep up the act.

It’s “indicators” like this that tell me, with all the implications of it, the USA is(!) over.
It scares the bejeezus out if me.
For the country; for the globe.
For the country? yeah, we are fucked. Not because of these "leaders", because of the lead.
For the world? Na. This is the only hope for humanity. The USA was never going to help fix the damage we're doing to our habitat. Our fall is the crack in the system that can allow for the needed change.

Candyland.
Still too tough for them to understand.

Anyone taking bets on how long it is until they weaponize this buffoonish gaffe by "accidentally" sending mundane classified, secret or top secret information to opponents in an effort to get them arrested for receipt of restricted documents?
