    They said in the hearing today that there wasn’t anything classified in there.

    I say that he releases it completely unredacted and see what they say about it then.

      Exactly my thought when I heard that. I was like then there wont be an issue releasing them. I love how they all did not answer a thing during the hearing as well, at least Hilary had the guts to answer the questions during the Benghazi hearing.

      The White House has denied war plans were texted to the group, and Hegseth on Monday denied the reporting as well, calling Goldberg “a deceitful and highly discredited, so-called journalist who’s made a profession of peddling hoaxes time and time again.”

      Fuck it, I say call their bluff and release it.

    I thought it was quite clear in the Atlantic article that there were references to undercover or active agents and that leaking that information would put them in danger. Also on another note I was thinking about today, am I crazy or did Trump leak some text or messages in his first administration that led to the deaths of active intelligence agents? I can’t seem to find anything about it.

    If it’s not classified information then it’s reportable. It was sent to a reporter it needs to be reported.

    Didn’t he say that he deleted everything once he verified that the texts were real? I haven’t read the article yet, but the title seems peculiar

    Edit: now, having read the article, my question persists

      I believe he said that he logged out of the chat as soon as he verified the texts were real, and that the texts in the chat were set to auto-delete in 1 to 4 weeks (different texts set to expire at different times).

      As the other commenter said, he left the chat. No way he didn’t vigorously archive every aspect of the chat he was party to.
