Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

US National Security Adviser Mike Waltz has taken “full responsibility” for a Signal group chat leak that exposed classified military plans for Yemen strikes to Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg. In a Fox News interview, Waltz admitted: “I built the group. It’s embarrassing,” but denied intentionally adding Goldberg, whose number wasn’t in his contacts.

The Various Reactions from the White House and Congress

President Trump called the signal chat leak a “glitch with no operational impact”, with intelligence chiefs denying that classified information was shared. In addition, a”lower-level staffer” was blamed for Goldberg’s accidental inclusion.

From the point of view of the Congress, Democrats are demanding an investigation into national security breach. The Senate Intel Committee is also calling it “grossly incompetent” and Federal Records Act violations has been alleged due to auto-deleting messages.

This sheds light on a sloppy national security strategy. Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) had been quoted to have said.

Three Critical Security Failures Exposed

1. Unsecured Communications Channel: The Signal app still lacks SCIF-level protections required for classified talks, especially among White House officials. The NSA warned employees about Signal vulnerabilities last month but apparently, the warning wasn’t needed.
Following this, Pentagon has banned messaging apps for non-public defense info.

2. Record-Keeping Violations
Thea auto-deleted messages may have breached Presidential Records Act, and Federal Records Act. Currently, a watchdog group American Oversight has filed lawsuit.

3.Operational Security Lapse: Journalists have revealed that they saw strike plans 2 hours before execution, with the leaked chats they saw discussing leveraging Europe for military costs.
