Senator Jon #Ossoff: “Disagreements between the president & VP about US plans & intentions would be of obvious interest to foreign intelligence services, would it not?
#Ratcliffe: 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 #NationalSecurity Adviser #MikeWaltz owed an apology, #Trump 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 #Signal app.
#Waltz said the team is looking into “how in the heck” a journalist ended up in a group text chain on the Signal app where top ofcls were discussing plans for #military strikes against #Iran-backed #Houthi rebels in #Yemen.

#EdDavey, Ldr of the #UK’s Liberal Democrats:
“#JDVance & 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 #WhiteHouse 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.”
