Summary

Republican calls for an investigation into a leaked Signal chat involving senior Trump officials are growing, with Senators James Lankford and Roger Wicker urging a probe into the discussion of sensitive military plans with a journalist accidentally included.

The chat, led by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, detailed a Yemen strike and has sparked bipartisan concern over security breaches.

Trump downplayed the incident as a “glitch” and refuses to fire anyone.

Critics, including Democrats and ex-intel officials, warn the mishandling could embolden U.S. adversaries and demand resignations.

    Uhg, this would be such a good opportunity for dems to use some repub strategy. File a motion for impeachment for every stupid gaffe like this. Too bad they’re so fucking useless.

    • They are doing almost nothing at this point. They need to dominate the news cycle to get some message out to people instead of Trump/Musk shit.

      Absolutely agreed. It’s also the most constitutional argument you can make: this president refuses to follow the law, it’s endangering all of us, and the only option he leaves us - the only option available to reign in a lawless president - is his impeachment and removal.
