The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Their War Plans
-
From a high level defense official.
“It is safe to say that anybody in uniform would be court martialed for this,” the official said. “We don’t provide that level of information on unclassified systems, in order to protect the lives and safety of the servicemembers carrying out these strikes. If we did, it would be wholly irresponsible. My most junior analysts know not to do this.”

Ah, the usual "unnamed sources"...

So, was Goldshit added on purpose?
Maybe somebody added the nickname 'Golfshit' or "Goldfinger' or possibly even 'Goldenshower', hoping to include The World's Greatest Living American, and once again things spiraled out of control?

Mike claiming he didn't add Goldberg is laughable. He was added and then spoke in the first person. It was him typing.
I'm not following this one. What are you describing and what does it prove? My vague impression is that one of Walz's staffers added Goldberg accidentally. Is this clearly not the case?

Prior to him being added to the chat, he was ‘friended’ by Walz. Or whatever the verb is in Signal.

Obvious cope is obvious.
I’ll bet there isn’t a single uniformed officer in the entire defense apparatus that doesn’t know the above quote to be 100.0% true. And literally all of them know that they’d be fucked if they said it to a reporter on the record.

Horse feathers.
The closest thing you ever got to the military was probably in South America.

You’re asking Jon that question?
Allow me then to ask you…
So what was your service record? Reg Force? Reservist? State militia ( or whatever Yankees call it)?
Kitchen patrol in a scout troop?
I think you’re just a big talker.

Given all the denial on such a black and white situation - how do you take anything these guys say seriously?

That's why I give so much grief here over the Trump lies. If he says 36,000 americans died building the panama canal, but it was 350, how can I trust any number he gives out?

Tortured definitions are nothing new to anybody, and especially not in politics. Tulsi had a statement this morning before a committee on foreign threats (again not convened for this matter, but she addressed the elephant in the room). These are the talking points after a day to mull everything over. Explicit lies? Probably not, just tortured definitions.

"Integrity" used to mean something to the Republicans. "Character" used to matter to the Republicans. Not anymore. So sad.

If someone is not actually sad, while they claim to be rhetorically sad, but rather they are happy to see their enemy embarrassing themselves, how does that reflect on their integrity?

Miss the good old days of debating what the meaning of "is" is?

Well, anybody who wants to get too precious about this, can reflect on that sort of history.
