TeleMessage, which was acquired by Oregon-based Smarsh in 2024, says it’s […]

"President Donald Trump waited until the 101st day of his administration to fire national security advisor Mike Waltz, the official responsible for including the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic on an unsecure Signal chat in which leaders shared classified information about a military strike on the Houthis in Yemen."

U.S. President Donald Trump has ousted his national security adviser Mike Waltz and named Secretary of State Marco Rubio as his interim replacement. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/05/02/world/politics/trump-replaces-waltz/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #us #defense #republicans #donaldtrump #michaelwaltz #marcorubio

"Waltz appears to have taken the fall for Signalgate. … Waltz resigned Thursday more than a month after the Signalgate scandal broke, where he inadvertently added The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to a Signal chat detailing confidential war plans in Yemen."

The Register: Forget Signal. National Security Adviser Waltz now accused of using Gmail for work. “Senior members of the US National Security Council, including the White House national security adviser Michael Waltz, have been accused of using their personal Gmail accounts to exchange sensitive information.”

Wenn der #NationalSecurityAdvisor offensichtlich keine Ahnung von #Security hat und alles durch die Nutzung von #GMail nur noch schlimmer macht.

Und wenn es im Nachrichten-Podcast der #WashingtonPost sogar explizit heißt: "GMail is far more risky than Signal for government communication!"

Unbelievable 🙄

🚨 OPSEC Disaster at the Top: How Michael Waltz Just Compromised U.S. National Security—AGAIN! 🤦🏻‍♂️ 🤬

While the Trump administration lectures about digital security, National Security Adviser Michael Waltz has been using Gmail to coordinate military operations and sharing after-action strike reports in Signal group chats that accidentally included a journalist.

Let’s be clear:
・Personal Gmail was used to discuss weapons systems & troop movements
・Israeli surveillance was exposed—jeopardizing a key intelligence partnership
・Sensitive coordination went through Signal, not JWICS
・Waltz, who attacked Hillary Clinton for email practices, is now guilty of worse

This is not a technical mistake. It’s a policy failure, a hypocritical breach, and a serious threat to U.S. operational integrity.

If you lead in national security, you do not get to bypass your own secure systems. And you certainly don’t blame “legacy contacts” when you get caught.

Accountability isn’t partisan. It’s essential.

The Trump administration sought on Tuesday to contain the fallout after a magazine journalist disclosed he had been inadvertently included in a secret group discussion of highly sensitive war plans. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/03/26/world/politics/trump-yemen-signal-chat-hegseth/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #us #republicans #donaldtrump #jdvance #petehegseth #tulsigabbard #michaelwaltz #cybersecurity

Britain has no self respect, unlike say, Canada, we'll take all the abuse Gilead throws at us and then ask 'sir' for some more, being the snivelling worms we are.
