CBS News: How Donald Trump Officials, Congress Are Reacting to Atlantic Story On Yemen Bombing Group Chat

"Monday's story about an Atlantic journalist being included in a group chat among Trump officials discussing war plans for Yemen is reverberating across Washington. CBS News' Ed O'Keefe and Nikole Killion report."

Fox News political commentator Jessica Tarlov pretty much summed up my position on this... even before I thought of it: 

"I don’t want to ever hear about Hillary Clinton’s emails again."
Fox News' Jessica Tarlov tore into the White House after it was revealed that The Atlantic EIC Jeffrey Goldberg had accidentally been added to a top-secret group chat."

Before I get into the important point of what I want to say here, I have to say hearing a story like this, about these group of people, who were caught redhanded sharing military secrets, over a private phone... it's not funny. But if 1 of your goals in life is to be the world champion of hypocrisy, this would be a great start: "Damn, these people are serious hypocrites. I got nothing on them. They can have the world title... if they want it that badly". 

As Jessica Tarlov said... and they weren't called MAGA back in 2014 when Hillary Clinton's email story broke, but these are the same people culturally and ideologically, who were accusing HRC of not being trustworthy to protect our national security secrets: 

"Multiculturalism, education, elitism, modernism, is destroying America. And we need to fight back take back America". That's what the Tea Party believed back then and that's what Tea Party/MAGA believes now. 

And as the far-right in America is accusing Democrats of destroying America for the reasons I just mentioned, they get caught talking about the Pentagon's war plans in Yemen, as well as future military plans that The White House is considering, on private phones. And if that's not bad enough for you... they leak their plans and conversations to a private journalist. 

But hey, American democracy has real consequences. And when a majority of the country votes for someone for President, who appoints people to office based on how they look and sound on TV, instead of their professional qualifications, their intelligence and knowledge, damn things can happen that has real consequences for the rest of the country.
