[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone asking how or why?[/quote]

I'm with you, " how and why " should be the focus plus an immediate enforcement of SCIF only discussions moving forward.

In my book Goldberg doesn't look too good in this either. In my profession if I receive confidential information that I have no reason to receive, my professional training would be to immediately call it to the attention of the sender and delete the information . In this case, Goldberg should have immediately notified the DNI head so that his phone could be secured by them and analyzed for malware and the mission itself should have been put on hold until all phones involved were collected and studied for malware.

But Goldberg, who incidentally had at one time become a citizen of a foreign country and served in the military in a foreign county, did NOT take this immediate step to secure the US mission by alerting the DNI and POTUS- as was his duty as an American. Perhaps he doesn't truly consider himself one ?

Second question: as many of us know, just like IG and FB " share my contact list" is a means to access the phone numbers and contacts of all of Goldberg's contacts, so , in keeping himself lurking on the chat for 2 days- someone else may have been able to view the battle plans. Perhaps THIS was the Intent all along by the original hacker??

Bottom line- of course, no more Signal, Whats App chats ( both are in AWS servers, btw ) so nothing is secret there to the NSA. NSC needs to accept fact that all Presidential records are discoverable and stop trying work arounds that actually put our troops more at risk.

AND, as we all learned in KDG- if you find something that isn't yours, you immediately return it to the rightful owner. Jeff Goldberg effectively held onto someone's wallet for 2 days, counted its cash value and deliberated what that could for him and then finally chose how to exploit it. THAT is ultimately, Un-American , IMHO.[/quote]
The information was not marked classified, so *technically* he had no obligation to report it.  Of course, if he had reported it to DNI, she would have brushed it under the rug — and he knew that.  He DOES have an obligation to report improprieties of this administration to the public — which he did.

Stop trying to place the blame on him.  This administration is atrocious.[/quote]

Well, he DID report it. They said it looked real, they said he wasn't prohibited from publishing and only that they preferred he did not. You cant exactly "return" information, but he did report it gad veen guven to him. Besides which, until there were actual bombs--which meant the bombing plans could no longer be secrets--he did not know the conviction was real.

I'm also perplexed about Waltz' s venmo friends list. Do those piggyback on other apps or something? Why would you be sending or receiving money to/from lobbyists? If not, why would you have them listed as friends? Is he someone who just accepts friend suggestions from every apparent source? [/quote]
