From the Article:
“If you think we should do it let’s go. I just hate bailing Europe out again,” Vance replied. Hegseth agreed that “I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s PATHETIC.” But, he added, “we are the only ones on the planet (on our side of the ledger) who can do this.”
Miller, the Trump confidant, effectively ended the conversation by saying that the president had been clear. “Green light, but we soon make clear to Egypt and Europe what we expect in return.”
Edit: The texts are released to public
Yeah and the only way to leak it, is to invite the wrong people. But somehow they managed even that.
That must have been in purpose because how the flying frack do you accidentally invite a hostile (to you, that is) journalist into a top secret chat about war plans?
The problem is that they were discussing national defense information outside of approved classified systems. I mean Signal is secure yeah, but phones are not.
- Hey boss. Remember the guy whose phone we hacked to use his private life against him?
- Yeah, what about him?
- I got some classified stuff and the defense plans of the country for next week.
- . . . wait what?
No I’m seriously wondering if they thought some of this would help them somehow. I honestly don’t see how nobody would’ve noticed
