Unintentional Signal Chat Leak Sparks Scrutiny Over Trump Administration’s Handling of National Security Information

Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, was accidentally included in a Signal group chat where Trump administration officials discussed sensitive national security matters, including a U.S. military operation targeting Iran-backed Houthi forces in Yemen. This incident has raised significant concerns about the handling of classified information, particularly focusing on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who shared operational details in the chat. In response, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe are set to testify before the House Intelligence Committee to address the leak and discuss protocols for safeguarding classified information.
