Trump reveals who was behind Signal text chain leak | 25 March 2025 | President Donald Trump revealed that a staffer [deep-state dirt-bag who has hopefully been fired] with national security advisor Mike Waltz's office included the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic in a Signal group chat with senior Trump officials who were discussing plans for an upcoming strike on Houthi rebels in Yemen. "It was one of Michael's people on the phone. A staffer had his number on there," Trump told NBC in a phone interview when asked how Jeffrey Goldberg, the Atlantic's editor-in-chief, was added to the high-profile chat. The president added that Goldberg's inclusion in the group chat had "no impact at all" on the strike in Yemen. White House Communications Director Steven Cheung summed up the Atlantic story in an X post as "nothing more than a section of the NatSec establishment community running the same, tired gameplay from years past."
