3) You believe in freedom, the government shouldn't be IDing people

congrats....

Have to disagree with you here. In your anectote, yes, give that guy a second chance. The level these guys are at, the power they wield and the lives that count on them mean that there is no margin for error here. You simply cannot have f ups of this scale. This is the US military, supposed to be the best in the world, and the guys at the very top of it have embarrassed every single soldier, sailor, marine, and pilot. Not only that, now that the world has seen this incompetence, there will be many more attempts to...

Team circle jerk in here proving their lack of integrity as always. What a bunch of pathetic fucking hypocrites this board has become. The dumbest fuckers are the biggest ball lickers as always.

So it's your argument that nothing was "compromised" in this case? And that it's OK because signal is encrypted, even though the pentagon had said not to use it for multiple reasons, including potential security issues and that using it violates record retention laws? And that it's no big deal that someone deep inside Trump's administration invited a journalist who openly hates Trump into the conversation? And that this will have no impact on how much our allies can trust us with information? And that their lack of trust could never be detrimental to our interests? You believe all of...

When you were overseas with your security clearance, do you think your superiors would have thought it was nothing if you were in an AOL chat with journalists discussing plans for upcoming operations or do you think there might have been some consequences for that? The fact that you can't find the thing to be concerned about is just telling on yourself.

Wow, such wit for a comic. I think I get it, but it just isn’t on-the-nose enough for me.

You boys are fucking delusional, it’s always “but what about”

I'd go so far as to say that these folks believe that THEY are more important than the deadly serious duty they swore to. Idgaf that some fuckwit from the other "side" has done as bad or worse. That ain't the goddamn point is it?

This is a pretty big fuck-up and some of you guys just can’t acknowledge it, lol. The same ones that throw “TDS” around will see something like this and somehow claim it’s no big deal, even though it is, and you know that if this happened under Biden you’d be singing a different tune.

It seems many of those people new in important roles act without the adequate seriousness or professionalism. Breaking duty of care and not spending a second thought before making far reaching decisions. It is common sense and a basic rule of corporate cybersecurity to check who's part of professional group chats before sharing any information, no matter how sensitive you think the information is.

Since the Admin said none of it was classified the Atlantic released the thread. 1 week delete settings, Jeffrey Goldberg was added by Mike Waltz himself. The Director of National Intelligence had a really bad memory when she was at the Senate hearing yesterday. This was all messaged an hour or 2 before the operation began.

Come on..... The lengths some of you go to to defend anything and everything Trump and his lackeys do is just sad..... just because other people did similar stupid things doesn't mean the thing your guy did isn't bad. It doesn't have to be catastrophically bad to be bad. Nothing about this is good. You should be able to say that without it being TDS or hearing about the Clinton's server..... FFS just be honest admit your lord and savior Donald Trump and his disciples did something wrong..... doth protest too much, methinks...... it's almost like deep down you know...
