Democrats Condemn Musk’s SignalGate Role: “Dumb F***ing Idiot” Controversy
The White House’s decision to enlist Elon Musk in investigating a Signal chat leak involving sensitive national security discussions has drawn sharp criticism from House Democrats. The leak, involving a journalist accidentally added to a group chat with top officials, has raised concerns about the handling of classified information. Democrats argue Musk’s involvement undermines the investigation’s credibility, given his own record on security. The Atlantic, which initially reported the story, has since released further messages from the chat, intensifying scrutiny of the incident. The controversy centers on whether classified information was shared and the appropriateness of Musk’s role in the investigation.
