Somebody had to say it.
They actually had the balls to claim that this wasn't a big mistake.
I would have asked, "So, you did it deliberately?"

Obviously the choice to use a commercial system was willful and committed by everyone in the group.

There’s a hearing today. The talking points are mainly two. That the information shared on Signal was not classified, and that Signal is a normally used and approved messaging system. The opposition senators are salivating at an investigation.

The hearing was coincidentally timed, not supposed to be about this, but it’s mostly about this.

That seems false. Surely the launch times and targets were classified. When the spokesperson talked about it today she was careful to say ‘no classified materials’ instead of ‘information’. As they didn’t force documents with classified stamps on them down the signal wire.
There’s a way to test this. Have Goldberg offer to publish everything.

It’s a tortured framing to be sure.

In the hearing you can see they have a general approach to say "nothing was classified" but Warner said just to release the text then. Either it's classified or it's not.
I am guessing since technically what Hegseth sent out in terms of attack details probably didn't have a "TOP SECRET" classified banner/block on it, then they're arguing it wasn't teeeeeeeeechnically classified. It's a big stretch and certainly one that would get a normal worker bee fired if they had sent war plan attack specifics via Signal or other encrypted chat apps.
Signal is used by government officials, even in the intel world, but it's not approved for handling classified information.
The highlights from the hearing are fun.

I really think Tulsi is saying it wasn't classified information because it was probably missing the classified banner. Total guess, but otherwise why would she make such a claim that likely is easily proved as a lie?

By the way did the Senate really convene a hearing this quickly? Or was this already planned by some coincidence?

I guess you have me blocked, but I answered that already.

I was replying to your post right before that, and never noticed you reposted in the interim.

I wonder if Goldberg chose yesterday to publish knowing the hearing was today. I doubt it. It probably took him all last week to clear everything with his lawyers and get comments.

After watching that hearing, I don't need any more ridiculous excuses today.
