So they are going to cut Medicaid, which does not have a middleman, and the reason stated why it must happen is the problem with health care is the middleman. Classic.

Followup article from the Atlantic since the Security Council kept saying there were no specifics in the thread (or they couldn't recall).

• Editor Jeffrey Goldberg was accidentally added to a chat on encrypted chat app Signal in a major security breach
• The magazine initially did not publish the full details of the group chat, saying it did not want to publish classified information
• But Goldberg said White House accusations that he was lying had prompted his decision to now publish the entire exchange
• The newmessages show Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth describing US strikes on Yemen in real-time in the chat
• He provides details about the window for strikes, and the exact timings of drone and missile attacks on the Iran-backed Houthis, followed by analysis of targets hit
• White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt responded by calling Goldberg a "Trump-hater" and again said that the messages did not contain classified information

Classified, or not?​

Now there’s nothing left to the imagination.

The Atlantic magazine has published the exact text messages that Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth sent to a high-level White House group chat providing key details about the US strike on Houthi forces in Yemen just hours before the attacks began.

The messages include the military hardware the US was using and the exact timings of when the strikes would take place, as well as initial reports about their effectiveness.

Just yesterday, Director of National Security Tulsi Gabbard said none of the material in the Signal chat group was classified. So after some consideration, magazine Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg decided to release them.

At this point the American public can decide whether this information, if it had fallen into the wrong hands, would have endangered US forces and undermined the operation’s chances of success.

No reason to not post it after-the-fact. The administration repeatedly said nothing there was classified, so they have cover that they couldn't be prosecuted as the source of a spill. And show people the type of information that is going over unsecure channels.

Atlantic 'making a big to do about nothing' - Trump adviser​

Speaking to reporters, counsel to the president Alina Habba says her opinion is that the Atlantic are "making a big to do about nothing. A reporter that is trying to get clout".

"We were upfront about it. We went in yesterday, as you saw, for the better (part) of the day and got questions and answers by everybody," Habba says.

"We're allowed to have communications. That's period - the end," she says, adding that the White House stands by National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, who started the chat.

"I would love if the press, for once, would focus on the actual facts and actions of the administration. This is just, this is frankly just noise."

Well if they don't contain classified information, there is no problem with publishing them....right?

Or releasing them fully to Congress....right?

So what's the problem? Why are they wanting to keep a lid on this?

NOTE; this is sarcastically rhetorical.

I don't even think the smearing is needed. They said it was all unclassified and refused to "recall" any answers to Senate questions. At that point it all gets released. Even if they never mentioned his name. It's not personal, it's about getting people a look into issues with how the administration runs.

Remember per the reporter there is also a covert CIA agent unmasked by name in it as well


But nothing classified

Yesterday, I asked Directors Ratcliffe and Gabbard if their Signal chat included information on weapons packages, targets, or timing.

Director Ratcliffe: "Not that I’m aware of."

Director Gabbard: "Not to my knowledge."

Interesting.

Didn't MTG get out of some legal issues following the 2020 election using that strategy? The "I don't remember" MAGA defense strategy.
