Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth responded to a question about the breach of the Signal chat between he, VP JD Vance and others.

Hegseth didn’t have a lot to say about it, but did say “nobody was texting war plans”.

Here’s move via The Hill:

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters Monday that “nobody was texting war plans” following news breaking that Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, gained access to a group chat featuring Trump administration officials talking about plans for an attack against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

“Nobody was texting war plans, and that’s all I have to say about that,” Hegseth said outside a plane in Hawaii after being asked about Goldberg’s access to the chat.

Hegseth also called Goldberg “a deceitful and highly discredited, so-called journalist who’s made a profession of peddling hoaxes time and time again.”

The leaks from the chat probably make most of us happy on the right, given the views expressed, but I still say it’s embarrassing that it happened in the first place. I’m sure it will never happen again…
