A major controversy has erupted within Donald Trump's circle after sensitive military plans were inadvertently shared in a Signal group chat that included a journalist.
The chat, involving figures like Mike Waltz and Pete Hegseth, has sparked calls for accountability, with some Trump allies demanding resignations. Despite the uproar, Trump has not asked anyone to step down, though the issue remains politically volatile. The incident has also complicated the nomination of Trump's U.N. ambassador pick, drawing criticism from conservative commentators.
A watchdog investigation into the breach is reportedly underway.
