The Setup: A “Leak” That Wasn’t
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shut down left-wing media hysteria Monday after The Atlantic falsely claimed he leaked “war plans” in a Signal chat. The truth? No classified information was shared, and the strikes against Iran-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen—which crippled their Red Sea piracy—were executed flawlessly. The National Security Council confirmed the chat’s authenticity but clarified there was zero risk to troops or national security (NSC Statement).
“Nobody was texting war plans, and that’s all I have to say about that.”
— Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, March 24, 2025
This non-scandal reeks of desperation from the deep state and their media allies to undermine President Trump’s historic foreign policy wins.
Trump’s Leadership: Decisive Action Against Terrorism
While Biden’s weakness let the Houthis blockade global shipping for over a year, Trump took just 60 days to dismantle their threats. The March 15 strikes—coordinated via secure channels—destroyed Houthi missile sites and restored freedom of navigation in the Red Sea. Hegseth emphasized:
“The skill and courage of our troops secured this victory. The American people deserve transparency, not tabloid gossip from activist ‘journalists.’”
— Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth (Full Remarks)
Media Hypocrisy: Remember Hillary’s Emails?
The same outlets now clutching pearls over a non-classified Signal chat spent years downplaying Hillary Clinton’s actual mishandling of classified intelligence via her illegal private server. The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg—a known Trump antagonist—conveniently “forgot” to mention this double standard.
“I have never encountered a breach quite like this.”
— Jeffrey Goldberg, The Atlantic (Article)
Funny—Clinton’s server contained TOP SECRET emails, yet Democrats and their media allies cheered her exoneration.
Deep State Sabotage: A Pattern of Interference
This “leak” narrative follows a familiar script:
- Trump succeeds (e.g., Yemen strikes, border security, economic boom).
- Deep state assets manufacture a “scandal” (Russia hoax, Ukraine call, now Signal chat).
- Media amplifies lies to distract from victories.
Fox News’ Brit Hume nailed it:
“Oh for God’s sake…the administration has confirmed the authenticity of the message [thread].”
— Brit Hume (X Post)
Translation: There’s no “there” there—just more swamp creatures trying to tarnish patriots.
Stay Vigilant: Defend the Truth
The left fears Trump’s America First agenda because it works. While they obsess over gossip, real leaders are keeping Americans safe.
