Gabbard & Ratcliffe were participants in the Signal group chat.

“One more person responded: “John Ratcliffe” wrote at 5:24 p.m. with the name of a CIA official to be included in the group. I am not publishing that name, because that person is an active intelligence officer.”

Senator , grilled on why had been excluded for the first time in the report.

Gabbard again said the only included the highest threats.

King rattled off the MANY effects of Climate Change that threaten security. Migration, famine, poverty, social & political tensions, etc.

Then he directly asked if she ordered that climate threats be excluded. She said no.

The reason 100% is ’s war on “wokeism”

Senator is going off! on director about the chat group.

: “You’re the director of the CIA, and you didn’t check who was in the chat group?”
…
“Did you know the president’s Middle East adviser was in Moscow while on this thread?”

: I did not know that. (again, he’s the director of the CIA)

Senator gets into the details of the group chat contents:

“Was there any discussion of targets?”
…Weapons?
…Timing?
…Military units?

& answer “I don’t recall” to all. From the article (see pics)

It was the next morning, Saturday, March 15, when this story became truly bizarre. At 11:44 a.m., the account labeled “Pete Hegseth” posted in Signal a “TEAM UPDATE.” I will not quote from this update, or from certain other subsequent texts. The information contained in them, if they had been read by an adversary of the United States, could conceivably have been used to harm American military and intelligence personnel, particularly in the broader Middle East, Central Command’s area of responsibility. What I will say, in order to illustrate the shocking recklessness of this Signal conversation, is that the Hegseth post contained operational details of forthcoming strikes on Yemen, including information about targets, weapons the U.S. would be deploying, and attack sequencing.
The only person to reply to the update from Hegseth was the person identified as the vice president. “I will say a prayer for victory,” Vance wrote. (Two other users subsequently added prayer emoji.) According to the lengthy Hegseth text, the first detonations in Yemen would be felt two hours hence, at 1:45 p.m. eastern time. So I waited in my car in a supermarket parking lot. If this Signal chat was real, I reasoned, Houthi targets would soon be bombed. At about 1:55, I checked X and searched Yemen. Explosions were then being heard across Sanaa, the capital city.

Senator Jon : “Disagreements between the president & VP about US plans & intentions would be of obvious interest to foreign intelligence services, would it not?

: Yes

Ossoff: And they were discussing the timing of sending US aircrews into enemy airspace where they faced an air defense threat.

Ossoff: Director Ratcliffe, this was a huge mistake, correct?

Ratcliffe: No.

Ossoff: This is an embarrassment.

Asked if Adviser owed an apology, said, “I don’t think he should apologize. I think he’s doing his best.”

Trump added that he thinks “we won’t be using it very much,” referring to the app.

“ & his mates clearly aren't fit to run a group chat, let alone the world's strongest force. It has to make our services nervous about the we're sharing with them.”

“'s can't be trusted. Their reckless approach to security means it's only a matter of time before British intelligence is leaked.

“The Govt must urgently review our intelligence-sharing arrangements with the US.”

JD Vance and his mates clearly aren't fit to run a group chat, let alone the world's strongest military force. It has to make our security services nervous about the intelligence we're sharing with them.
Trump's White House can't be trusted. Their reckless approach to security means it's only a matter of time before British intelligence is leaked. The Government must urgently review our intelligence-sharing arrangements with the US.

@Nonilex This is important. All countries that share classified information with the US should conduct a new risk analysis at this point.
