The Atlantic magazine on Wednesday published even more “war plan” texts laying out minute-by-minute operational details and exact weapons to be used in the Yemen strikes — after the Trump administration shot down claims classified details were ever shared in the bombshell Signal chat snafu.
The mag’s top editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, published additional snippets of the text exchange that he says revealed the precise operational details of the March 15 bombing of the Houthi terror group in Yemen.
“If this text had been received by someone hostile to American interests — or someone merely indiscreet, and with access to social media — the Houthis would have had time to prepare for what was meant to be a surprise attack on their strongholds,” the editor wrote, referring to one message fired off by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
“The consequences for American pilots could have been catastrophic.”
It comes after Goldberg had revealed Monday that he was inadvertently added to a Signal message chain on March 11 in which top Trump administration officials — including Hegseth and Vice President JD Vance — discussed bombing the Houthi terror group in Yemen.
Trump and other top administration officials quickly downplayed the text saga, insisting that sensitive national security materials were never disclosed about the March 15 strikes.
