The Atlantic Releases New Signal Chat Messages of Pete Hegseth Outlining Specific Attack Plans
"Nobody was texting war plans," the Secretary of Defense said Tuesday The post The Atlantic Releases New Signal Chat Messages of Pete Hegseth Outlining Specific Attack Plans appeared first on TheWrap.
The Atlantic released the exact military strike plans that editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg unexpectedly became privy to on Wednesday morning, detailing not only times and places of strikes, but the weapons that would be used.
The receipts came just a day after both the director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, and CIA director John Ratcliffe testified on Tuesday that the information discussed in the Signal chat wasn’t classified. President Trump said the same, and his administration has been adamant that “war plans” were not shared in the Signal chat.
Indeed, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said on national television that “nobody was texting war plans” earlier this week. But, in the new texts revealed, it appears Hegseth himself was specifically sending the plans. In a message beginning with “TEAM UPDATE,” Hegseth laid out the exact time strikes would be made, beginning at 12:15 E.T.
“MORE TO FOLLOW (per timeline)” Hegseth added in a follow-up message.
During their testimonies on Tuesday, both Gabbard and Ratcliffe also swore under oath that “information on weapons, packages, targets or timing” were not discussed in the messages, which has since been proven false.
The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg and Shane Harris wrote that the decision to share the new messages was made after assertions that they were lying about the contents of the Signal group chat: “The statements by Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe, and Trump—combined with the assertions made by numerous administration officials that we are lying about the content of the Signal texts—have led us to believe that people should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions.”
Shortly after the release of the texts, Senator Mark Kelly called on Hegseth to resign, writing in a post on social media that “The Signal incident is what happens when you have the most unqualified Secretary of Defense we’ve ever seen.”
“We’re lucky it didn’t cost any servicemembers [sic] their lives, but for the safety of our military and our country, Secretary Hegseth needs to resign,” he wrote.
In response to The Atlantic’s latest publication, White House press secretary again asserted the Signal group chat did not disclose “war plans.”
“The Atlantic has conceded: these were NOT “war plans.” This entire story was another hoax written by a Trump-hater who is well-known for his sensationalist spin,” she wrote on X.
