    No he did not. Read carefully, because this is what separates geniuses from commons. Attention to detail. Understanding psychology. Understanding nuance.

    Waltz said he built the group, not that he added Goldberg (the weasel). He then said that Goldberg's contact information wasn't in his phone. He said that he built the group to take the pressure off of his staffer. Waltz then said we have to figure out how Goldberg was added. That's key.

    When Ingraham asked which staffer may have accidentally included the journalist on the chat, Waltz said that he himself is taking “full responsibility” for the mistake.

    "A staffer wasn’t responsible,” he insisted. “I built the group… My job is to make sure everything’s coordinated.”

    Ingraham — still trying to understand how the error was possible — continued pressing Waltz, saying, "I mean I don't mean to be pedantic here, but how did the number get in the chat?"

    “Have you ever had somebody’s contact that shows their name and then you have somebody else’s number there?” he replied. “You’ve got somebody else’s number on someone else’s contact, so of course I didn’t see this loser in the group. It looked like someone else.”

    "Now, whether he did it deliberately, or it happened in some other technical mean is something we’re trying to figure out,” Waltz added.

    Ingraham didn't drop the conversation there, following up with: "But how did [the number] end up in your phone? ... That's a pretty big problem."

    After he tried again explaining the apparent contact mix-up, she repeated, "But you've never talked to him before, so how's the number on your phone?"

    Waltz, a former Florida congressman and Army Special Forces veteran, told Ingraham on Tuesday that he had been in contact with fellow Trump adviser Elon Musk, who had “the best technical minds” investigating how Goldberg was added to the chat.

    When Ingraham asked who Waltz intended to add to the chat instead of Goldberg, the national security adviser deflected.

    "Well, I’m not— Look, Laura, I take responsibility. I built the group,” Waltz repeated. “That’s the part we have to figure out.

    Anyone care…? In light of SignalGate, this is relevant to bring up.

    1- WTF are these people doing? If you have a WiFi coverage issue, the fix is very simple. It absolutely does not require low-orbit satellite technology.
    2- This has been strange from the very start, even before SignalGate. WTF are they doing with Starlink at the White House?
    3- This ad hoc addition to the White House screams, did anyone check on security?

    Let me give you some possible explanations: This White House does not even trust its own departments, including the Secret Service, intelligence agencies, and the CIA. It decided to install Musk’s super technology for private communication off the books. Who knows who they are talking to, but one thing is certain. Just like Signal, it likely has not been properly vetted for secure communications.

    Report: Starlink Tries to Fix White House's Wi-Fi Woes | PCMag

    Instead, the NYT piece says broadband from that constellation of satellites in low Earth orbit is “routed through a White House data center, with existing fiber cables, miles from the complex.”

    Trump administration officials claimed that “some areas of the property could not get cell service,” according to the Times, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt describing the Starlink project as intended “to improve Wi-Fi connectivity on the complex.”

    Be smarter than that. You have to ask yourself, how did Waltz add Goldberg if Goldberg was not in his contacts? Did someone else add him? Entirely within the realm of possibility for the Deep State and hostile actors. That's what Waltz alluded to in his interview -- if you were sharp enough to spot it. Sounds like you didn't pick up on it.


    GOOD DAY

    Not sure if it's been mentioned, but "WhiskeyLeaks" is my favorite new nickname for Hegseth

    It isn't that complicated even.

    It is an extreme form of entitlement.

    They do not believe that anyone will breech their security because they do not have to think about it - because if someone does breech their security it isn't their fault, it is someone elses fault - and even if someone does breech their security it doesn't matter because they are awesome and will face no consequences.

    This is also why the complaints of DEI ring so entirely silly - Hagseth IS a DEI hire. He lacks the experience, the ability and the temperament for his position. He got the job because of how he looks, that he is used to dealing with the media on Fox News and because he will do whatever it takes to satisfy Donald Trump.

    Have you ever thought that Goldberg was indeed in his contacts and you're just braindead for blindly believing him.

    Jesus christ how did Americans become so utterly dumb

    LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I am literally rolling at your stupidity.

    What does building the group mean to you exactly? Have you ever built a group chat before?

    Waltz explanation so far is the name and number for a contact on his phone is mismatched ..........WHAT LOL.

    - he is claiming a contact is saved
    - thus he added that contact BY NAME.
    - when asked who he intended to add, NO ANSWER.

    HUHH.

    everyone here knows you are the biggest partisan hack in the history of clutchfans and you will tow the republican party line 100% of the time no matter what, but these baseless conspiracy theories and spin youre engaging in are just sad. even ted cruz has come out and said they made a mistake and it shouldnt have happened.

    Mistakes like this . . .. is entirely what THEY TRY TO SAY DEI Hires do . . .
    but the reality is .. . this is what they do . .they are the Affirmative Action Hires if you will

    Unqualified only got their positions because of their skin color and being the right sexual orientation
    none of them are qualified

    DUI Hires if you will cause you have to be drunk on power to put these morons in charge

    The spin these folks have is EXTRODINARY, I have never seen such biggly contortionist trying to find anything to say. Jesus, just say I F`d up , here is what happened and move on, but the cover up is worse than the lie, I already did not believe anything they say, now it's just a given they will lie. And the press secretary continuing to call out Hillary, is so funny, when you can't come up with something just go back 10 years and air grievances............this is a f********* joke
