President facing suggests no punishment for security officials over blunder that saw Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg added to highly-sensitive Signal group chat by mistake
The White House attacked a journalist as an "anti-Trump hater" and blamed the media after The Atlantic published a leaked Signal chat where senior officials discussed military action in Yemen, mistakenly adding the magazine's editor-in-chief to the group. While Trump defended National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, who claimed responsibility, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faces calls for resignation, and the White House distinguishes between "attack plans" and "war plans." Separately, an appeals court rejected Trump's attempt to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport immigrants.
