Fool Me Once Shame On You, Fool Me Twice Shame On Me

I don't want to hear about how Democrats are working behind the scenes to investigate and expose this SignalGate travesty.

This has got to stay on the front page. Malcolm Nance calls it the greatest national security threat in our country's history.

Magats have been using Signal for at least a month and they plan on using it in the future for the purpose of violating the federal Records Act, for the purpose of acting with impunity, for the purpose of violating the law and never be held accountable.

Today, Yesterday really, Democrats need to demand to see the Houthi war plan communications that was saved on a government device.

If Magats cannot come up with that record then they need to be prosecuted. Fuck that I guess with Bondi and Patel in charge.

Democrats have Magats by the balls and they need to organize with a common message that gets repeated over and over again, every damn day until something is done.

People are going to die because Magats are using Signal for classified information. They have most likely already been compromised, our enemies most likely already have access to passwords.

Rant Off - For Now.

And if the Democrats cannot do this basic accountability task,
then something is very seriously wrong.
Even more seriously wrong than we are already well aware of.

and that is exactly why they need to bring this to the people. It is up to us, the people, to raise all holy hell over this and to do this Democrats need to be way better at messaging, way better at controlling the narrative.

Democrats need to organize right now with a common message that they repeat over and over again. They can't be distracted by how did Goldberg get on the group chat.

Democrats need a plan, right now, how they are going to message this. Is that asking too much?

FOIA request the transcripts, the number of times Signal has been used, what it has been used for, and the FOIA the transcripts of those chats too.

Make them admit that Hegseth lied when he said the government backed up the records.

The whole thing is an end run around Records acts, to cover illegality.

he demanded that Hegseth release the entire HouthiGate conversation.

I hope Schumer meant that he wants to see the conversation from a government source. Hegseth insinuated that it wasn't illegal to use Signal if it was copied onto a government device. Schumer needs to ask to see the government recorded chat session.
