BOMBSHELL: Trump texting fiasco's most shocking revelation drops during Senate hearing [View all]

(NJ.com) -snip- In a timely congressional hearing on Tuesday — roughly 24 hours after The Atlantic magazine revealed that Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Director of Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and others exposed national security secrets and war plans to an American journalist, not to mention U.S. enemies —it was uncovered that Witkoff was in Moscow during the chat.

FBI Director Kash Patel, Ratcliffe and Gabbard were hammered by Democrats in a hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee. They face another round of attacks on Wednesday when they appear before the House Intelligence Committee.

“Did you know that the president’s Middle East adviser was in Moscow on this thread while you were as director of the CIA participating in this thread?” Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado asked Ratcliffe. “Were you aware of that? Are you aware of that today?”

“I’m not aware of that today,” Ratcliffe responded.
