US Defense Secretary Hegseth shared war plans in second Signal chat, NYT reports

[JohnDB]

Deep State Democrats and Republicans have been desperate to get rid of Hegseth and will continue to try EVERY trick to do so.
Hegseth is upsetting the apple cart of the gravy train.

He, singlehandedly, has increased morale and improved our force fighting readiness than any Sec-Def previously.

The NSC is still in the hands of the Deep State. Tulsi has her work cut out for her. She still is captain of a hostile crewed ship. She might be a Rogue wannabe....but let's see if she can fix the problems they have.

This sounds like our totalitarian media at work.

And Tommy is all too happy to spread the lies.

Its almost like nobody would be interested in these details.. Trump probably coughs it all up anyway when he is being debriefed by Vlad.

You forgot to post the link of those guys creating an unsecure chat group, potentially putting the lives of US military personnel in harm's way. Wait........they didn't do that.

I'd be surprised if he is. It's not Dotard's style to punish incompetence. He just ignores it and waits for the news cycle to move on to the next disaster he created.

Whiskey Pete was going to “brief” Elmo on national security issues.

Trump seems to be done with Elmo so…

It’s a more extensive use of the app than previously reported and sheds new light on how commonly the Trump administration’s national security team relies on Signal, a publicly available messaging app, to conduct its work.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about forthcoming strikes in Yemen on March 15 in a private Signal group chat that included his wife, brother and personal lawyer, according to four people with knowledge of the chat.

Some of those people said that the information Mr. Hegseth shared on the Signal chat included the flight schedules for the F/A-18 Hornets targeting the Houthis in Yemen — essentially the same attack plans that he shared on a separate Signal chat the same day that mistakenly included the editor of The Atlantic.

Well..here's one anyway:

Former Hegseth aide in op-ed: 'Total chaos at the Pentagon'

John Ullyot, until recently a Pentagon spokesman, wrote that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is a distraction and that it’s hard to see him remaining in the job.

www.nbcnews.com

An aide to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth published an op-ed Sunday in which he was highly critical of his former boss and suggested that President Donald Trump might soon remove him after weeks of turmoil, including leaked texts about airstrikes in Yemen and the abrupt firings of top officials.

“It’s been a month of total chaos at the Pentagon,” John Ullyot, who had been a top spokesman at the Defense Department before he left his job there last week, wrote on Politico. “From leaks of sensitive operational plans to mass firings, the dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president — who deserves better from his senior leadership.

“President Donald Trump has a strong record of holding his officials to account. Given that, it’s hard to see Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth remaining in his position for much longer.”

The Defense Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Ullyot, who worked in the first Trump administration, as well, also noted the firings of several top Pentagon officials in the last several days. On Friday, according to Ullyot, Hegseth’s chief of staff, Joe Kasper, was removed from his position following the firings of several other senior aides to Hegseth, including deputy chief of staff Darin Selnick and senior adviser Dan Caldwell, as well as the chief of staff to the deputy secretary of defense, Colin Carroll. (Selnick, Caldwell and Carroll said in a statement Saturday: “We are incredibly disappointed by the manner in which our service at the Department of Defense ended. Unnamed Pentagon officials have slandered our character with baseless attacks on our way out the door.”)

“In the aftermath [of the firings], Defense Department officials working for Hegseth tried to smear the aides anonymously to reporters, claiming they were fired for leaking sensitive information as part of an investigation ordered earlier this month,” Ullyot wrote. “Yet none of this is true.”

Ullyot was working as acting assistant to the secretary of defense for public affairs. In February, Sean Parnell was named the Pentagon's chief spokesperson, which sidelined Ullyot a bit.

Who is John Ullyot? Former Pentagon spokesman asked to resign—report

Ullyot was among the first communications hires under Pete Hegseth and played a central role in several contentious decisions.

Seems more to me like he got his toes stepped on a bit and was mad.

Un named sources. In other words, total bullshit. Or, for you leftists, lies.
