Pete sent one too many messages…

the only idiotic thing hegseth did was using an unsecured communications method.
Trump just needs to order him to turn in his cell phone, and provide a 24/7 secure comm method for pete to protect him from his own stupidity, and most of this bullshit goes away

Is someone you have to babysit like that truly who you want running the DoD? I don't..
 
The Secretary of Defense needs real leadership and high level military command experience. Trump floated Hegseth because he looked slick on Fox News — not because he was qualified to run the Pentagon.
 
Correct me if I’m wrong but Signal has been used by government officials for more than a decade by both parties and it wasn’t Pete that linked in Goldberg it was waltz.
You're talking about the first incident, not the second allegation.

Signal as a platform is not the issue. It shouldn't be used for TS/SCI (or probably even S/NOFORN), but like all communication platforms it's only as secure as the person using it, and those they invite in.

Inviting in people not cleared for access was the problem in the first incident (even if it was the fault of Waltz's assistant). In the second allegation, it's all on Hegseth for discussing sensitive information with people with neither clearance nor need to know.

You are one of the most retarded people on here.
 
I got out of the intel game in 2001, when I left the army. Back then, SIPRNET was all we had; it was pre-smartphone, and the "culture of texting" didn't exist yet.

Does anyone here know whether there's a truly classified version of SMS, for use in situations like these? Like, when coworkers in SCIFs have to exchange routine work info (which is probably classified by its very nature), can they at least do it on a secure chat app through SIPRNET?

If there's no capability like that, it's understandable that folks will mess up and just use nonsecure means. It's wrong, but it's understandable.
