Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. There should never have been... show more

Rice is right. There’s a reason why secure systems and chain-of-command protocols exist. Using a Signal group chat, instead of the embassy SCIF with the National Security Council, no less—to discuss sensitive national security matters isn’t just reckless, it’s an invitation to foreign intelligence. Because Steve Witkoff was in Moscow while receiving these messages, we should absolutely assume Russian surveillance captured them. This is a catastrophic failure of responsible governance—where loyalty and mediocrity replaced process and competence. No speculation! It’s a national security breach hiding in plain sight.

Not only did Trump’s team leak war plans in a group chat, but one of them was in Moscow while doing it. If a Democrat had done this, Fox News would be screaming TREASON 24/7.

Don’t worry, Trump will ask Putin if they intercepted the messages…and he’ll believe him.

Which means they know the identity of a CIA intelligence officer. That is really scary.

And there it is. To anyone that said no harm was done, we really don’t know that. Just because the mission at hand wasn’t compromised doesn’t mean there aren’t other things taking place as a result of this debacle.

Signal is end to end encrypted (security holes/risks aside). Where he was doesn't seem very relevant.

Witkoff either misunderstood Putin or gave Trump bad information. Trump believes that the Russians are willing to give up all of Kherson and Zaporizhia for the rest of Donetsk. That is the purpose of the summit and the Russians have never offered this. It's going to be awkward.

Reporter: Did you declassify that information before you put it in the chat and are you using Signal to discuss operations as sensitive as the strikes against the Houthis on a government or personal phone? Hegseth:

People aren’t taking the “signal-gate” controversy seriously enough— mainly because no Americans got killed. But this mistake was egregious. And someone very well could have gotten hurt. And that “someone” could have been YOU. Or your family. Sharing sensitive national security information on a commercial app is stupid, illegal and extremely dangerous. It put the life of every single American potentially at risk. Had a sinister person been on that group chat — quietly collecting information for a few more days, weeks or even months— there is no telling what might have eventually happened. We got lucky that the information gotten dropped into the hands of a patriotic journalist. But in another scenario— given the nature of the information government officials were sharing on this app — Americans could have been rocked by a true disaster. The Trump administration’s actions could have impacted every single one of us.

ZELENSKYY: It was the Russians who destroyed their own gas pipeline while trying to demolish Ukrainian energy infrastructure, so Hungary should have directed their claims to Moscow instead. “Who destroyed it (the Druzhba pipeline)? Ukrainian Armed Forces or the Russians? Well, who did this? The Russians. There should at least be some, well, I don't know, some... there should be at least some humanity. So you tell them, send a signal to the Russians to stop destroying Ukrainian energy infrastructure with their missiles. But instead, they just make accusations (to Ukraine) So it's a political question. But we will fulfill all our responsibilities” - UA president on Thursday, April 9th.

Kilmeade on Iran: I don't think that Witkoff and Kushner should be the ones doing this. They're business guys. They have not been effective in Ukraine, not been effective in Gaza. They have not been effective in this. We have a State Department for a reason.

Steve Witkoff: The Russians have invited us to come, and that’s a significant statement from them. And Kirill (Dmitriev) was here yesterday and working on this with us. So I think everybody is embedded in the process and wants to see a peace deal happen. Source: Bloomberg

A Ukrainian historian explains to a Russian that Ukrainians and Russians are not one people with a simple question: how was the Russian ethnic group formed? :) Because all the tribes from which Ukrainians originated — and which Russians have falsely claimed as their own — lived only on the territory of Ukraine, not Russia. Russians, on the other hand, began forming from the remnants of the Mongols after their empire collapsed, and they have absolutely no connection to Kyivan Rus.
