It was a setup

Think about it
1) Some random staffer adds a Trump hating journalist to a classified chat "by accident."
2) Within 24 hours two of the people on that chat just happened to be scheduled to testify in front of Congress with no time to prepare. (Neither of whom did anything wrong - neither of them invited Goldberg). So they essentially got ambushed. They were scheduled to talk about normal IC stuff, but the whole hearing turned into this circus.
So my question is why was Goldberg added? Why wasn't it someone's wife or daughter or a complete random person? Why wasn't it Hannity or some other Trump ally? Why did it "just happen" to be the biggest Trump hating journalist in America?
Someone on the inside set this up on purpose. I don't believe for a second that it was a mistake or that someone "fat fingered" Jeffrey Goldberg's name.

Yep. Trump has played this masterfully. We know who the rat is now.
We need to move on now that they will be dealt with. Trump hasn’t lost focus thankfully.

Someone on that chat had been previously chatting with Goldberg (likely leaking), so his name was likely saved. Like when you send an e-mail and it tries to fill in "others" that you have previously group e-mailed with.

Love your melt. This is what happens when amateurs who have never held an advanced Security clearance, nor have worked or operated in that world at high levels get gifts.....they end up texting conversations that you shouldn't text....even on a "secure encrypted " platform like Signal

Trump actually set the whole thing up as a masterfully planned troll to own the libs. Mission accomplished.

why is a staffer in the signal chat?
Posted on 3/25/25 at 11:55 am to monsterballads
Trump already talked to Waltz and knows that Waltz has learned his lesson. If Trump can move on, so can we.

No doubt there are a lot of rats among the permanent WH staff.

Can someone please tell me if Signal group chats have a moderator that handles and approves all invites and approves people to join group chats. Or can anyone already in a group chat send out an invite and approve their invitee?

Some staffers have security clearances. Waltz has already said a staffer was on that chat group.

it was waltz staffer too. IMO this was a setup. I think waltz is dirty.

Like I said, they should not be texting certain conversations while one of them are stopping off to pick doughnuts in the morning.
Conversations like this should be in person or on a secured land line at the very least. Not on your cell phone.

again, why is a staffer on a need to know with the VP/SECDEF/NSA?
