The Atlantic has published the fuller chat thread from the Signal group that journalist Jeffrey Goldberg was 'inadvertently' included in. This comes after the top Trump officials involved denied that they shared secret "attack plans" in an unsecure, unclassified setting. The President has downplayed it, defending both national security adviser Mike Walz and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Senator Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, has called for both Hegseth Waltz to either resign or be fired from their top national security posts.
"When the stakes are this high, incompetence is not an option," Warner wrote on social media Tuesday. "Pete Hegseth should resign. Mike Waltz should resign."
And in a a letter to President Trump, House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries has urged Hegseth's termination, calling him "unqualified" and a national security risk.
