Angus King doesn't buy Gabbard's testimony that war plans ahead of military strikes isn't actually classified information

Every one of the people of the cabinet are just like their boss Trump. They are filthy lying trailer trash and are unfit to even be called Americans. Trumps whole cabinet and him need to be put on a plane and flown to the prison in El Salvador and locked up for life. It is amazing they are scum.

I get it in a way. Once information is in the hands of a Trump official its no longer classified. Because all America's enemies have it. Whether its stacked up in the shitter at MarALago or being sent around on social media apps, Russia, China, and a teenager in his basement called Suxz69 has got it

This is good energy, but I wish Democrats were this focused on fighting the dismantling of our government which will have a direct impact on everyday people. You'll be shocked to learn that all the fuss about Hillary's emails was to win arguments, not because they actually care about... anything.

3 years of hearings and not one iota of guilt was proven. What a waste of money and time. But the government has no problem wasting money on bullshit but if you want to feed and how's the homeless or poor people then it's a problem

I think that the take away is that the civilians running these agencies are free lancing and are disconnected from the services that they represent. The methods that worked on USAID don’t transfer to spies and war fighters. Ultimately, violence is the tool that Krasnov must rely on. Will they come?

My guess is that it probably should have been officially classified but wasn’t. Maybe that’s why Gabbard and Ratcliffe are so confident in stating that no classified info was shared on the group chat. Don’t know how that works. Does someone have to officially “classify” the info?

Using an app the pentagon issued a security warning only a week ago, I can believe the info wasn’t classified but it dam well shoulda been opening up yet another major problem. That answer if true is a major national security breach as well

She lies and lies again! They don't want people to know that they have been using SIGNAL to keep what they are doing from being transparent. It is only due to incompetence that we learn about it. There are clear protocols that require secure lines for such conversations. They CHOSE not to use them!

The USA needs to be removed from Five Eyes until the other member nations can trust the USA with intelligence. This is a major f*ckup, and no amount of spin will cover this up.

I hope None Of Us See The Texts-Until It's Been Confirmed That None Of Them Contain Classified Information. "Sources and Methods", Must Be Protected! And, "Need To Know", Must Also Be Maintained! #Americans Want That!

"Willfully" using a non-government platform for Classified Information IS a Crime. "Inadvertently" disclosing Classified Information on a non-government platform IS NOT necessarily a Crime. One Guess as to what This Administration WILL claim?

Anybody remember the days when a high ranking government official caught lying under oath would have resigned? What has happened to ethical standards? When did it become acceptable for our politicians to lie without consequences?

and now they are saying it is all made up. that the Atlantic reporter is a scum bad and a sleaze. That the Atlantic is a failing magazine. that they just did this for publicity.

Claiming that war plans aren’t classified is sheer folly. Any statesman worth his salt knows military strategy must be guarded like a treasure. Those who dismiss such secrecy invite disaster and betrayal. Patriots, beware of such reckless ignorance! #resist

She's too incompetent to know what classified information is? She's a god damned NG LTC, was also on House Armed Services Committee, and House Foreign Affairs Committee, and she doesn't know that much? As ODNI she should have been calling them out.

Classification is irrelevant. That they are using a system that is designed to not keep records is. The intent is to leave no trail on any issue. He should be asking them what other topics are being discussed on Signal!

Liar. We don’t need to get into a fight about semantics. The information is classified and will be proven to be. There is nothing that can change that. Facts are facts. There are so many other questions that will reveal more crimes committed. Dems need to keep digging for information.

See this kind of shit is what irritates the fuck out of me A 12 yr. old would be able to draw the conclusion that attack plans would and should be classified. So,call her out!! Say," Are you telling me you don't think the plans of attack hours before the attack should be classified!!?"

If the big Classified Information rulebook line 1, paragraph 1, page 1 doesn't say 'Examples of such information, include Country A planning to bomb the fuck out of Country B' or such like then I'm a monkey's uncle.

Any operational security information in planning and execution phase is classified. After the operation, the information might be downgraded if in certain cases. This apply across all NATO.

If I were a Houti who saw these texts, I would: Immediately put all leaders into high security places... Revise all movements. Put defense systems on high alert for the weapons described. Also, would try to find out how US knows about terrorist's girlfriends' locations. This may compromise spies.

Their biggest mistake was to think most people would believe Trump's obvious lie that no secret information was involved in this Signal Chat. Only MAGA cult members would twist their brains around to believe the original glaring LIE.

They're so bad at this. It's not "I find it hard to believe this information wasn't classified." It's "It's absolutely ridiculous and disqualifying for you to sit here and claim that information isn't classified."

If the people at the head of these departments fail to account for what goes on especially gross errors what does that say about their own competency? Explanations and awareness of what’s happening is imperative. Their jobs are not to excuse mistakes but to uncover and prevent future ones.

You want to drop the bomb?? Bring in Goldberg, under oath, and have HIM show the text strings! Boom, game over! Every single one of those M-Fers will be hung by their own lies! Let them twist in the wind!!

She’s splitting streaked hairs here. She’s saying it wasn’t “officially” classified at that time. SecDef and NSC can determine classification. Would it normally be considered Classified or National Defense Information? Hard YES!

nothing will come of this. The inmates are running the Asylum now. that's it. this is just a tip of the iceberg on all the crimes and bad moves this administration is going to do.

Remember Clinton was attacked for emails that were deliberately vague because the writers of the emails knew they were on an unclassified system and did not include any operational details bsky.app/profile/yous...

Just to remind people the thing that was most highly classified and Clinton's office email was a 22 message email thread that vague references to the CIA drone program that was publicly acknowledged. Even vague references were considered TS. The messages were deliberately vague because
