Another article on the actual scandal within #signalscandal being the activity they were coordinating. Not the use of an app.


Trump's 'America Second' strategy of subjugating itself to Israel - in this case bombing targets that present no threat to the US in order to punish a group standing up to Israeli aggression against Palestinians, may likely be making US citizens less safe, not more. While breaking domestic law in defiance of international law. Sounds awfully familiar to Australian foreign policy.

In #Australia the relentless participation in US wars in the name of 'security' and 'alliance commitments' has demonstrably eroded security. While driving up costs and straining regional relationships. All while breaking laws, norms and conventions on behalf of foreign interests. While mouthing glib motherhood statements about 'the Rule of Law'. Empire sucks.

"Historically, the president has only been permitted to unilaterally order US forces to wage war in self-defense — if, say, US troops or civilians come under attack somewhere. But just as with Biden’s own Yemen strikes, that’s not what has happened here. Trump ordered these strikes in response to the Houthis threatening to resume attacks on *Israeli shipping. It’s worth noting, too, that the Houthis’ stated reason for restarting this blockade is as a response to Israel breaking the terms of the Gaza cease-fire and once more blocking humanitarian aid from entering the territory."

jacobin.comThe Real Yemen Scandal Has Zero to Do With Jeffrey GoldbergThe press is mostly framing the Yemen group chat scandal as a story of incompetence. There’s little attention being paid to the deadliness, illegality, and ineffectiveness of the strikes themselves.

"We’ve noticed a divide with how they’ve been reacting to this possible security breach.
Those most closely aligned with the White House messaging — that this was a one-off “nothing-burger,” as Sen. Markwayne Mullin put it — are focused on how Goldberg accidentally got added to the chat.

Those more open to an investigation, however, have a much larger concern about the Signal of it all.

“The question is, if it was classified information, why were you not using a classified conduit to send it?” Sen. Thom Tillis said.

At least one Republican already had his answer. “To me, the bottom line is: Is Signal secure enough to discuss the type of detailed information that we all know was discussed? And I think the answer to that for me is, no,” Sen. Kevin Cramer said.

NO ONE SHOULD BE SURPRISED by this level of incompetency when you appoint someone whose military career peaked at "Major in the NY Nat'l Guard" turned Fox News talkshow host (I remind: So adverse to following Conventional Wisdom that he bragged of having not washed his hands in ten years) is appointed to run THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES MILITARY. 🤦‍♂️ #SignalScandal #NationalSecurity #DisasterPresidency
