During Tuesday’s hearing, Gabbard told Warner that the Signal thread didn’t share any classified information but refused to share its contents, or even admit that she was on the chain.
“If it’s not classified, share the texts now,” Warner told Gabbard. “Share it with the committee. You can’t have it both ways. These are important jobs. This is our national security.”
Bitch, we can smell the bullshit 500 miles away.
I anal too, but I think as long as they do submit the conversion to the record which they now still can if it didn’t self delete, then they’re covered. They can also declassify all of it and say “see?” like Trump did with the classified documents he stole for Mar a Lago.
Signal isn’t on an approved list, but the federal records act really just said there will be a council headed by an administrator or whatever to make rules and collect the records. So the current administrator, which could be a vacant seat or a MAGA Hat for all I know right now, would be in charge of this, and probably just hand it over to congress.
The messages were set to auto-delete after a week, which imo reduces the likelihood that the messages will be recorded.
Good thing there are screenshots by the reporter.
Yeah, but it’s evidence they weren’t going to be compliant and likely are not compliant in other places.
Also, I doubt it being recorded by a journalist is compliance either. The government needs to store it to be available later if needed.
But the guy in the chat with them immediately informed them that he’d been in there, which gave them time to act
No, not for top secret stuff. That needs to be taken to official, secure channels.
Whoa whoa. You’re not a lawyer, or you anal. CONFESS!
