Trump Dismissing Leaked Military Plans: ‘Really Not a Big Deal’
Following The Atlantic’s publication of Signal group chat messages among national security officials, President Trump dismissed concerns, asserting the messages contained no compromising details and did not affect the successful Yemen attack. National Security Advisor Mike Waltz also responded, taking responsibility for the group’s creation but refuting the President’s suggestion of staffer involvement in leaking the messages. The released chat logs included a detailed timeline of the airstrike provided by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, contradicting previous administration claims. The Atlantic published the messages to allow the public to draw its own conclusions regarding the administration’s denials.
