This offer, which again, OPM does not have that authority to start with. That was who it came from. But it is, I can tell you, with lots of federal employees, we got chaos on steroids going on. And we had heard from Trump's supporters, the OMB director, for example, that he wanted to traumatize federal workers. Well, that is happening.

'Holy crap on steroids!': Top Trump officials exposed in shocking, sloppy military security blunder
Well, Rachel, I didn't think this administration could still shock me. But today's story, which I read about in The Atlantic, was beyond belief. It was like, holy crap, on steroids. This is another example of carelessness, sloppiness, and a crowd that's not ready for prime time. I mean, the remarkable thing, you think about you're on a,

a group chat and you don't know who everybody is, I mean, if this had been an intelligence officer who had done this, they'd be fired immediately. And the truth is, you know, signal is not a classified channel. I got questions tomorrow. Have they collected all the phones to make sure malware is not on some of these phones now?

'Holy crap on steroids!': Top Trump officials exposed in shocking, sloppy military security blunder
Do they realize that Russia and China have targeted signal to try to break in? Do they realize that, and frankly, I think Hegseth needs to go, or Waltz needs to go. The idea that you are conveying on this encrypted but not classified means the actual military plans, and I believe Jeff Goldberg,

My God, if this had been the Democrats, there would be investigations, there would be hearings, and we're going to have this tomorrow. We're going to have it out in the open hearing. This crowd is not ready for prime time.

And I would point out, Tulsi Gabbard, who all of the Democrats suppose, the director of national intelligence, who's been a spokesman on many right-wing media since she got this job, is said about the same time, if there is any leaker, they've got to be held fully accountable. Well, we're going to ask tomorrow.

beyond HEGSF, beyond Waltz, what other in this group should be held fully accountable for frankly breaching Security Protocols 101? And I just point out quickly, you know, this comes on top of them releasing a couple hundred of CIA names of people who were, you know, A year or so in, we spent a couple hundred thousand dollars on these agents, getting them cleared, getting them through training.

All of their identities were revealed. Those guys can't go out and work around the world anymore. We've had other classifications revealed. And we've obviously got the Doge Boys out there printing totally wrong information about supposed savings.

At what point, and I'm glad to see you're highlighting all the Americans around the country rising up, but I hope those who care about our national security will also start rising up. We are not made safer by these actions.

'Holy crap on steroids!': Top Trump officials exposed in shocking, sloppy military security blunder
Listen, this is gross negligence on steroids. And if they don't step up, and I got a lot of respect for the folks I work with on the intelligence, but I've been disappointed. I was disappointed when more of them didn't stand up against Tulsi Gabbard when she refused to call Edward Snowden a traitor. But At some point, something's got to give.

'Holy crap on steroids!': Top Trump officials exposed in shocking, sloppy military security blunder
And people who care about our national security, people who don't want the American first to be America alone, because if we don't have friends and allies, if countries around the world won't share their intelligence with us because a bunch of sloppy folks are putting it out on a non-classified signal channel, if you're not willing to stand up and call that out,
