The review also will “review compliance with classification & records retention requirements,” Stebbins wrote. He requested that the #Defense Dept designate 2 points of contact within 5 days, with work done both in Washington & at the headquarters of US Central Command in Tampa, Florida.

The #Defense Dept inspector general’s office said Thurs that it will scrutinize top #Trump admin officials’ use of #Signal, an unclassified messaging app to coordinate a highly sensitive #military operation last month in Yemen, complying with a request from #Republicans & #Democrats in #Congress.

The Washington Post · Inspector general to scrutinize Trump team’s Signal chatBy Dan Lamothe

One of the #SignalGate felons was in Russia, apparently with his private phone with Signal reading the attack plans. My understanding is that Russian operatives would have been in a room one door or floor away with technology to read whatever was displayed on his screen. These folks all must be fired! #Politics

"Signalgate is an embarrassing exercise in ‘Mother, may I?’ journalism, revealing how the government’s convoluted system of secrecy has confused the press about what it can or should publish. The real victim here is the public.

No one involved in the Signal text affair comes out looking good. Not Trump’s top national security officials discussing an imminent U.S. military strike on a public app, outside of the secure channels that taxpayers shelled out billions to set up.

Not the rest of the government (including Congress) that can’t seem to explain or even understand the basic rules of the secrecy regime it put in place and is supposed to oversee.

Not Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg, who explicitly waited for President Trump’s permission to report on the texts, even though the attack on the Houthis had already taken place over a week prior.

And not the news media overall that showered Goldberg with praise for deferring to the government while propagating the falsehood that publishing what the government deems “classified” is illegal.

This is how our democracy dies: in deference.

Goldberg has said he decided not to publish the actual text messages he received until Trump and his flunkies claimed they weren’t “classified.” In basing his decision on the government’s stamp of approval rather than on clear public interest, Goldberg smells more like a bureaucrat than a journalist."

"National security adviser Mike Waltz’s team regularly set up chats on Signal to coordinate official work on issues including Ukraine, China, Gaza, Middle East policy, Africa and Europe, according to 4 people who have been personally added to Signal chats.

2 of the ppl said they were in or have direct knowledge of at least 20 such chats. All four said they saw instances of sensitive information being discussed.

The question has been raised since Day One of #SignalGate. Question now is, is enough enough? … for even Trump?

Via Acyn:

#Raskin: Would it be problem for it to be standard practice to conduct sensitive foreign policy on a signal chat group? It just came out that #Waltz’s team set up 20 signal group chats for crises across the world… I’m sure this will raise the question on whether he should continue in that position
