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 it's cash value and deliberated what that could for him and then finally chose how to exploit it. THAT is ultimately, Un-American , IMHO.

Goldberg is the reason we know that Trump’s Cabinet is acting recklessly.

Of course they will. I just checked these two print sources of MAGA news and here's how they're covering the story in their latest coverage.

And if defence missiles had killed American pilots based on the published intel, that’s just bad luck - because the information wasn’t classified.

I’ll go make some popcorn while I wait for your answer.

MAGA is not posting on this thread. They know what a major f up this whole thing is and are embarrassed.

They must all be fired.

Fired and sent to prison.

Did you read the Atlantic article? He explained that he initially stayed on the chat because he thought it was either someone spoofing Waltz and trying to trick him so he was curious where it would go (he's a journalist, it's a possibility) or maybe Waltz added him on purpose to give him some information. He wasn't sure it was legit until it was serious.

I am a lawyer and if I receive a misdirected email, I would delete it. I would hope that another lawyer would do the same but I know that not all would. And I know that a journalist might not.

What????? Goldberg was added by morons in error. He had zero responsibility for anything, other than reporting, because that is the job of a journalist, and it is clear he consulted legal before doing anything, writing anything or releasing anything.

It is an approved channel.

They were warned not to use it. Try again, MAGA.
