REVEALED: How Jeffrey Goldberg Got In
the Signal Group Chat

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 4/6/2025 1:32:40 PM

It’s been a couple of weeks since the infamous “Signalgate” controversy erupted. Just as most Americans had moved on from this non-scandal, we have finally learned how Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor of The Atlantic, got into the encrypted group chat on Signal in the first place. For sure, this story was overblown from the get-go. Goldberg clearly oversold the chat as containing classified war plans, though a review of the chat, which Goldberg eventually published, proved the chat to be a real nothingburger. That said, the mainstream media quickly pounced on the story, and Democrats used the incident as a pretext

Comments:

And now everyone in the administration is cleaning out their contact files to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Some important context is appropriate here. From Wikipedia - " In a 2013 interview with the Washingtonian, he said he had decided to give up his Israeli citizenship, saying that "If Israel goes much further down the road I think it’s on and becomes more of a theocratic, totalitarian-style state [...] how could the liberal-minded American Jew support that?"" That pretty well sums up Goldberg's lefty political leanings as an Americanized Jewish individual. I hope at least that he believes the Holocaust really did happen.

OK, that's how his name got on the chat list. But here's the problem. No people at this level should be dependant on automated technology, especially for chat meetings involving secure communications. There SHOULD BE human gatekeepers to meetings that review all people on the list and determine WHO they are and whether they really should be at the meeting. This shouldn't be that hard. I would think that someone reviewing such a list would KNOW all the people on the list and have reasonable confidence, based on their roles, that they belong in the meeting. Along comes Jeffrey Goldberg, who they probably would NOT know. They should ask, WHO IS THIS GUY and WHY IS HE INVITED? or WHY IS THIS REPORTED INVITED TO THIS SECURE MEETING? This is NOT a firing offence but it IS a learning experience and there should be discussions and safeguards put in place. NOT learning from this WOULD be a firing offence.

Re #4, as I understood it, the damned Apple phone decided that Goldberg's number was an alternate number for someone who SHOULD be on the list, and associated this WRONG number with a RIGHT person. So, the failure is 100% on the damned phone "automation", like the horrors of automated phone text "help".

Re #7, apparently this one is considered secure, but if you link it to the wrong people.....that is not a problem with the security of the app. Of course, IMO, there is absolutely NOTHING that can be on a phone that is actually secure. The CIA says otherwise and puts this on the phones of their people as "secure". I remain skeptical that anything on any phone is ever secure.

My biggest problem with Goldberg is...if he really was soooo concerned about the information falling into the wrong hands...like our enemies...then why didn't he just erase and shut his trap....to protect America's secrets....because my dear friends it was all a set up as Greg Kelly on Newsmax said....the President Trump staff was told by the biden White House to use the signal account because it was secure....and you see where that got US....trust no one....remember comey.....

FTA: "Waltz did not ultimately call Goldberg, the people said, but in an extraordinary twist, inadvertently ended up saving Goldberg’s number in his iPhone – under the contact card for Hughes, now the spokesperson for the national security council." More human error than rogue technology.

It does not matter if the IPhone added Goldberg to Waltz's or not. Shouldn't Waltz have know, or at least paid attention to who who he was adding to his group chat? When you are discussing national security matters, one would expect that the sender of a message knows who it is going to. Didn't he check the list of Chat members before hitting SEND?

On Monday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” host and Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow discussed recent rhetoric on abortion from Democrats in Colorado. Marlow stated, “A Colorado Democrat said birth is more expensive than abortion and they’re calling [abortions] now, ‘averted births’. So, this is anti-human, … if you’re talking about, basically, the life of a human being as just an economic problem. Remember this, that the left sees everything as a money issue.” He added that many horror movies start with premises that aren’t as sinister as averting births and “this is the road to genocide. … It is not about safe, legal, and rare abortions.

An NCAA tournament defined by its lack of suspense came down to its final possession Monday. Florida won its third national championship 65-63 by overcoming a 12-point second-half deficit and making one final defensive stand. Houston got the ball back with 19 seconds left but could not get a final shot off. Catching a pass well beyond the 3-point line with five seconds remaining, Cougars guard Emanuel Sharp jumped for what would have been a game-winning attempt but pump-faked seeing the defense of Florida guard Walter Clayton Jr. Sharp avoided a travel by bouncing the ball while in the air, but a teammate could not rush over in time to grab the ball

At a recent "hands off" rally, an outspoken anti-Trump activist made waves by boldly declaring her identity as "undocumented, unafraid, and queer." This rally, aimed at protesting the Trump administration's immigration policies, prompted the Trump administration to deport her immediately. Over the weekend, Greisa Martinez Rosas spoke to the crowd at a Hands Off rally in Washington, DC, boasting about her illegal immigration status and her sexual orientation. According to a New York Post report, she is originally from Mexico but came to the U.S. as a child. She is an executive director of United We Dream, which spans a network of more than 400,000 immigrants.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday the implementation of a 10% baseline tariff on all imports, effective April 5, 2025. The worst offenders will be hit with even tougher measures on April 9. Speaking from the White House Rose Garden, President Trump proclaimed April 2 as “Liberation Day,” marking a new era of economic independence. He emphasized that this measure is essential to protect American jobs and revitalize domestic manufacturing.

In a bold move that champions both economic growth and practical forest management, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced on Friday that it will greenlight logging in America’s national forests. This decision, spearheaded by USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins, follows President Donald Trump’s executive order last month aimed at revitalizing the nation’s timber industry. For Americans, this is a long-overdue step toward restoring common-sense stewardship of our natural resources while bolstering rural economies battered by years of overregulation and neglect.

The Trump administration will be allowed to resume deporting suspected Venezuelan gangbangers under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act after the Supreme Court on Monday lifted a lower court order that blocked the deportations. DC District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg had blocked President Trump from invoking the rarely used wartime law last month, and later extended his temporary restraining order until at least April 12. The Trump administration filed an emergency request with the Supreme Court to review Boasberg’s pause on March 28, after a divided three-judge panel on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a request to lift the stay as litigation plays out.

The last thing the Palestinians need are more calls from Qatar-based extremist for terrorism and jihad.

The "scholars" leading the IUMS live safely in Qatar, not in the Gaza Strip, and they are therefore not directly affected by the war that Hamas launched.
