Jeffrey Goldberg, The Atlantic's editor-in-chief, told Tim Miller on Tuesday's Bulwark Podcast that the magazine is still considering whether or not to release the full Trump administration war plan texts he received via the Signal messaging app.

Goldberg spoke with Miller about how he was added to the text thread that included top Trump officials, the White House's response and whether or not he should publish the full transcript. "My colleagues and I and the people who are giving us advice on this have some interesting conversations to have about this. But just because they're irresponsible with material, doesn't mean that I'm going to be irresponsible," The Atlantic's editor told Miller.

Why It Matters

President Donald Trump on Tuesday downplayed the recent incident in which sensitive military strike plans against Yemen's Houthi rebels were shared in a group chat that included a journalist, calling it "the only glitch in two months" of his administration. Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers sharply criticized the administration, accusing it of recklessly mishandling highly classified information. Top administration officials also maintained Tuesday that Democratic outrage over the incident was misplaced.

On Capitol Hill, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard assured lawmakers that the text messages discussing U.S. attack plans did not contain any classified information.

Since their revolving door of "excuses" now claim they really "weren't classified".

1. As the Grammer School Kids Say:

DO IT...DO IT... DO IT..

[Bernardo de La Paz]

8. Grammar

Sorry, couldn't help myself. A typo or spelling error in a word about language (though not directly applied, indirectly to school).

[sinkingfeeling]

2. Just do it.

[kerouac2]

3. If it included classified information, and he proves it, then they are lying.

which, unfortunately, would likely lead to zero consequences against those responsible... and would likely lead to consequences against Goldberg and other journalists/media.

I would also guess that maga/gop will rally behind Hegseth and the rest of the cabal because that is what they do.

[Tanuki]

4. I hope Jeffrey Goldberg has hired a personal security team.

I worry about his safety.

[Mz Pip]

5. Send them to Mark Warner

Or some other Democrat on the Intelligence committee.

[Bengus81]

7. Yeah...best route to go

[Canada Kid]

6. Put it out there!!

There is no risk to national security now, the idiots already took care of that! Put it out there in all it's detail. That way they cannot hide behind the bullshit lies and dreamed up feeble excuses. They all have to be called up on the carpet. The loose attitude totally endangers Americans and puts the whole country in the gunsights of any number of nefarious players throughout the world. This is impeachable and traitorous stuff! They cannot hide behind the ORANGE IDIOT and his bathroom full of top secret documents!

[Mysterian]

9. Seeing as brazen liar Tulsi Gabbard told Congress there was nothing classified discussed

he should go ahead and do that. Then Gabbard could try to explain why discussion of military operations and plans is "unclassified."

10. I bet service members would be interested to know that senior officials....

in this Administration do not consider details about a military mission that is about to be carried out against foreign actors to be 'classified'.

[kirby]

12. Mike Waltz said the same thing today during his Congress testimony...

Interestingly, I do not think the Republican chairs swore in Gabbard or Waltz..so their obvious lies are not perjury.

[Hekate]

11. Excellent. Go get those bastards.
