News & Commentary Affecting ALL Americans

Let's start here:

Signalgate needs to be addressed. The Signal Messaging App Chat between senior Defense and White House leaders was a monumental Operational Security (OpSec) failure. Heads need to roll for a number of reasons: first, they were using an unapproved and easily compromised communication system, and secondly, Waltz admittedly looped in Jeffery Goldberg a journalist and Editor-in-Chief of The Atlantic. So who's going to fall on their sword to 'save' Pete Hegseth and VP Vance? Waltz? Hegseth?
