During Tuesday’s hearing, Gabbard told Warner that the Signal thread didn’t share any classified information but refused to share its contents, or even admit that she was on the chain.
“If it’s not classified, share the texts now,” Warner told Gabbard. “Share it with the committee. You can’t have it both ways. These are important jobs. This is our national security.”
Bitch, we can smell the bullshit 500 miles away.
Why does tulsi choose to look like she steals Dalmatian puppies on the weekends?
The Committee can always ask The Atlantic for the transcripts. I have no doubts they will hand them over.
Every politician in that chat should be impeached. I know it won’t remove them from office because the fucking Republicans lose even the pretext of ethics when one of their own is in trouble, but it should still be pushed to a vote.
“Top democrats shout at wall.”
She followed Trumps trick and unclassified it with her brain which is why she said that
tulsi is doing what she is told by kremlin.
IANAL, but because this was done on a third party encrypted chat app, doesn’t it also violate the federal records act or something? If this was any other administration they would have been launched out of a cannon for that alone, not just the breach in security.
That’s why they’re using Signal. If this while thing collapses on them, they don’t want written records of their criminal conspiracies.
Absolutely. Not to mention that organizing a fucking battle plan on a non-government communications system is fucking insane.
Yes. Unless they forwarded them in a secure way immediately. Which there’s like zero chance was the plan.
I’m not personally into the idea of ANAL, but I like how its simultaneously not classified info, and also they’ve forbidden the journalist from sharing it further …because its classified info.
I also ANAL. Those boys done fucked up but likely won’t see consequences.
“those boys done fucked up but”
Yes, this is ANAL

Nah, they just aren’t that smart.
This is the start of bullshit arguments intended to drown out any real conversation. It just gets worse from here.

Putin wins as usual. Dividing Europe is a Russian goal.
“Moscow has no interest in a divided Europe.” - Dmitry Peskov
Moscow would rather have an united Europe but one united in Russia’s interests, not America’s.
Putin wants NATO gone so he can nibble away at European territory, and he’s been open about that.
Putin wants NATO gone as it is an existential threat to Russia.
You really beleive what Russia says? What were they saying for years before they invaded Ukraine? Didnt they have a treaty saying they wouldnt invade if Ukraine gave up their nukes?
Didnt they have a treaty saying they wouldnt invade if Ukraine gave up their nukes?
The Budapest Memorandum? The ‘agreement’ that was broken when the US sanctioned Belarus in 2013 which was in violation of the agreement and America’s only response was that the Memorandum is “not legally binding” and this action made it null and void in its entirety? Lol.
Not that it matters as in 2014, the legitimate government of Ukraine was taken down in a coup where far right Neo-Nazi elements of the maidan movement shot their own protestors in a false-flag operation, blamed this on the legitimate government in order to incite public backlash against Yanukovych, then overthrew the legitimate government and then proceeded to commit massacres.
The false flag operation has been confirmed by several hundred witness testimonies including wounded protestors, 2,000 videos, 6,000 photos, and 30 gigabytes of radio intercepts.
I anal too, but I think as long as they do submit the conversion to the record which they now still can if it didn’t self delete, then they’re covered. They can also declassify all of it and say “see?” like Trump did with the classified documents he stole for Mar a Lago.
Signal isn’t on an approved list, but the federal records act really just said there will be a council headed by an administrator or whatever to make rules and collect the records. So the current administrator, which could be a vacant seat or a MAGA Hat for all I know right now, would be in charge of this, and probably just hand it over to congress.
Whoa whoa. You’re not a lawyer, or you anal. CONFESS!
The messages were set to auto-delete after a week, which imo reduces the likelihood that the messages will be recorded.
Good thing there are screenshots by the reporter.
Yeah, but it’s evidence they weren’t going to be compliant and likely are not compliant in other places.
Also, I doubt it being recorded by a journalist is compliance either. The government needs to store it to be available later if needed.
But the guy in the chat with them immediately informed them that he’d been in there, which gave them time to act
No, not for top secret stuff. That needs to be taken to official, secure channels.
Resign? They should be in jail. They used signal to get around FOIA laws.
Right! Resigning is not enough! If a regular person leaked secrets they would face more damning consequences.
“It’s classified” is a nice catch-all excuse to use when you just don’t want to answer for your actions.
Trump literally just got finished broadcasting and tweeting about flights that were deporting Venezuelans, topping it off with an “Oopise” taunt. But when he’s brought in front of a judge and is expected to answer for that…Sorry, classified. State secrets.
Trump’s team talks about bombing the shit out of Yemen, then goes and bombs the shit out of Yemen. And is now trying to say they didn’t talk about anything classified while talking about bombing the shit out of Yemen during a signal chat without even a hint of realization that the entire conversation was classified. Talking about impending war plans IS FUCKING CLASSIFIED BY DEFAULT YOU FUCKING CHODES
No one’s picking up the phone morons. It’s time for pitchforks.
Oh, are we “shredding” instead of “slamming” now? An even better idea: acting on it
Why? They LEARNED their Lessons! Unlike HILARYS EMAILS!
Its funny because republicans clearly do not give a shit about the rules and will continue to do whatever they want. And the dems made little signs to show they are unhappy. All while murica has fallen!
Just resign?
