This would seem to be a problem for Hegseth

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth pulled information he shared on Signal group chats from secure messages from a top American general in the Middle East, NBC News reported Tuesday.

The sensitive military details, which he shared using his personal phone, were initially sent to Hegseth by U.S. Central Command head Army Gen. Michael Erik Kurilla minutes before U.S. fighter jets took off for strikes against the Iranian-backed Houthis, three U.S. officials told NBC News.

Two sources told NBC that Hegseth less than 10 minutes after receiving the information sent some of it to two Signal group chats — one composed of Trump administration Cabinet officials, their designees, and, mistakenly, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, and another that included Hegseth’s family and personal lawyer, among others in his inner circle.

Hegseth shared the information on Signal days after an aide warned him to take caution and not send sensitive information on unsecure communications systems, two people told NBC.

I just have to do this….form Airplane!

Ted: My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar.

Elaine: When will you be back?

Ted: I can't tell you that. It's classified.
