Dear John,
The Trump administration just made a mistake so reckless, even Republican senators are demanding answers.
At this point, the story has spread across the globe: a senior White House official accidentally added a journalist to a secret Signal chat where Trump’s top advisers, including Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, were discussing military strikes in Yemen. The journalist saw everything. The plans. The launch times. Even the weather conditions for the attack.
Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski put it bluntly: "This is what happens when you don’t really have your act together."
The fallout has been immediate. The Senate Intelligence Committee is investigating. The Defense Department’s inspector general is getting involved. Even top Republicans fear this scandal will become a “significant political problem.”
Trump’s team is scrambling. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, the official behind the leak, first claimed full responsibility. Then he backtracked. Now, Trump himself is contradicting him, throwing out conspiracy theories on live TV.
The truth is, this was more than blatant incompetence, it was illegal. A watchdog group is now suing the Trump administration for violating federal records laws by using Signal for government business.
This is the reality of MAGA in power. Hypocrisy. Chaos. Incompetence. National security disasters. And yet, Republicans are still trying to avoid accountability. Help us stop them. Chip in now to defeat MAGA and restore real leadership.
In Solidarity,
The No Dem Left Behind Team
