The Atlantic Publishes Attack Plans That Pete Hegseth Shared On Signal Messaging App
Jeffrey Goldberg and Shane Harris wrote that they published the messages after the White House insisted they were not classified.
The Atlantic published the U.S. attack plans that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth shared on the Signal messaging app, in a group that included other top Trump administration officials and, by mistake, the media outlet’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. In a new piece, Goldberg and Shane Harris wrote, “The statements by Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe, and Trump—combined with the assertions made by numerous administration officials that we are lying about the content of the Signal texts—have led us to believe that people should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions. There is a clear public interest in disclosing the sort of information that Trump advisers included in nonsecure communications channels, especially because senior administration figures are attempting to downplay the significance of the messages that were shared.”
