Steve Witkoff was in the freaking Kremlin during this chat. Do you think Putin's intel service wasn't listening in?

He probably called vlad and said, ‘Hey, we’re bombing the Houthis for elon. Want to sit in on our planning call?'

Always enjoy hearing Tara’s perspective, so much respect. And thank you for sharing the UVA discussion, Jim!

One more tasty little tidbit from CNN about signalgate:

'The discussions included a moment where Vance expressed opposition to a potential strike against Houthi rebels in Yemen to clear up shipping routes through the Suez Canal because, as Vance notes, Europe, whose trade is more reliant on the Suez Canal than the US, would benefit more than the US.

One US company that did feel the sting of the attacks on shipping routes is Tesla, led by chief US government cost-cutter Elon Musk. Tesla was forced to shut down production at its Berlin Gigafactory for a time in January because the attacks caused supply-chain problems.’

Wow. So, this entire thing is about helping out el destructo. Should have known: 'follow the money' takes on new meaning in trump’s endlessly greedy clown ‘government’.

The persons on that Signal chat have all the credibility of Brett Kavanaugh before the Senate Judiciary Committee declaring "I like beer" repeatedly. Well, sure, I believe that, but I don't believe you are qualified for this lifetime appointment. Same goes for these goons, who even some Democrats voted for to their everlasting shame. They like to cosplay government high officials but does even one of them have a security clearance? They sure as hell have no credibility or moral compasses.

Totally irresponsible and dangerous. Absolutely, if someone in DOD or active military, they would have been fired immediately or brought up on charges under the UCMJ. Heads would be rolling. Unbelieveable.

I agree with Tara, we must fight back for our children and grandchildren’s future. The oligarchy of America is trying to buy judges in Wisconsin. We should be concerned with the rule of law, even if it seems surreal and not possible that we have come to this. This administration has no moral backbone, so there will be no justice unless we fight back for our democracy.
