Looking at [making up a reason for] how this happened
Is how I read that. Probably with the goal to throw the journalist in a camp.
You don’t need a technical mind to find an error with terminally stupid and incompetent users.
But you might need one to create a way of covering up that incompetence
“You’ve been added by Michael Waltz”
Even if we pretend Musk and his group of children aren’t incompetent, this isn’t hard.
“How did this happen!?”
Your leaders are absolute fucking morons, that’s how. There really isn’t anything to actually investigate here.
Best Technical Mids <> Elon Musk
Pick one.
The better technical mind would’ve avoided the security leak to begin with.
Nuclear codes about to drop on Telegram.
Inb4 the government now uses X Secure Messaging.
‘American Govt announces to buy Signal’

Noooo… Anyone but the best technical minds… They don’t have anything better to do?
Hahahahhahaha
‘The best technical minds’, It happened because they are morons.
Yes and also the biggest balls president musk and governor krasnov have ever seen. And his dick almost as big as Arnold Palmer’s
the ones that wont be hirable any reputable employer in tech
Yeah, do we really need a deep dive for RCA here!? It’s pretty obvious that incompetent people behaved incompetently.
Waltz admitted to doing it. They admitted to using a fucking app over established communications to avoid being on the record. That’s your investigation. Luckily it’s so simple I bet even musks teenagers could figure it out.

You are giving Musky’s teenagers way too much credit.
Yeah, but they’re not being paid to uncover that particular truth. Watch them somehow lock up the journalist over this.

January 20, 2025, Inauguration Day. Trump releases a statement on his top priorities for his presidency:

President Trump’s America First Priorities
DRAIN THE SWAMP
President Trump is taking swift action to end the weaponization of government against political rivals and ordering all document retention as required by law.
March 11, 2025. Jeffrey Goldberg receives chat group invitation for Cabinet-level officials for planning attack on Yemen.
I see that top Trump priorities on swamp-draining lasted — assuming, perhaps generously, that this was the first such incident with Signal — almost seven weeks.
Well, okay. I don’t know about the weaponization of government against political rivals. I seem to recall what looked like rather a lot of that, actually. But at least the document retention.
“How did a Trump-hating editor of The Atlantic end up on your Signal chat?” Laura Ingraham asked.
“You know, Laura, I’m not a conspiracy theorist,” Waltz replied. “But of all the people out there, somehow this guy who has lied about the president, who has lied to Gold Star families, lied to their attorneys, and gone to Russia hoax, gone to all kinds of lengths to lie and smear the president of the United States and he’s the one that somehow gets on somebody’s contact and then gets sucked into this group.”
Honestly, I really hope that the next administration, regardless of which party it is, dispenses with the constant and unending stream of bullshit. I really don’t want this sort of thing to become established as the new normal.
It’s not even over a significant issue here; it seems like an insane thing to use credibility on. Like, Waltz could say “I clicked on the wrong person”, and I don’t think that anyone is going to wig out about it. The fact that they were on Signal in the first place, not to mention using poor operational security while on it is the much more concerning issue, but he’s not denying that.
Unfortunately the people he is trying to convince are too stupid to think critically or even think logically about the root cause of the issue. He can mask his own incompetence through personal attacks and the idiotic brain-washed base will eat it up, one clip at a time.
The firehose of horseshit has been a hallmark of conservatives everywhere for like 2 decades. It’s already their normal.
It’s a feature, not a bug.
