The media has been using this story to hit Trump and his team and now they are hitting back!
Washington, D.C. — A political media scandal is exploding this week after The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, claimed he was accidentally added to a private Signal group chat involving senior officials in President Donald Trump’s administration—a group reportedly discussing U.S. action against Iran-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen.
Rather than handling the incident responsibly, Goldberg rushed to publish the private messages, igniting backlash from the White House, the American people, and national security experts.
🔥 Trump White House Fires Back
Goldberg’s story accused top Trump officials of breaching security by using an “unsecure” messaging app. The group chat reportedly included:
- Vice President JD Vance
- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio
- CIA Director John Ratcliffe
- National Security Advisor Michael Waltz
But the Trump administration says the so-called “leak” was nothing more than overhyped liberal spin.
“Jeffrey Goldberg is a total sleazebag,” said President Trump. “The Atlantic is a failing, dishonest magazine. Nobody reads it anymore.”
“He’s a hoax artist,” added Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. “He’s been pushing fake stories for years—like the lie that President Trump called our troops ‘losers and suckers.’ Total fiction.”
⚠️ No Classified Info, Just Media Hysteria
Secretary Pete Hegseth slammed Goldberg, calling him “a discredited, deceitful journalist who peddles hoaxes.” Hegseth clarified that no classified material or war plans were shared in the chat—and no American lives were ever at risk.
Even so, Goldberg later published more of the messages, claiming they revealed “attack strategies.” But Vice President JD Vance called Goldberg’s reporting “oversold and misleading.”
The Trump administration’s mission in Yemen, aimed at stopping Iranian-backed terrorists, was a success by every measure—despite the media’s desperate attempts to create a crisis.
💥 The Atlantic’s Anti-Trump Bias
This controversy comes as no surprise. Under Goldberg, The Atlantic has endorsed every major Democrat presidential candidate since 2016:
- Hillary Clinton in 2016
- Joe Biden in 2020
- Kamala Harris in 2024
The magazine has even labeled President Trump “personally malignant” and “politically dangerous.” It’s no wonder millions of Americans no longer trust liberal legacy media.
“The public doesn’t believe the media anymore,” said a former journalist. “Trump exposed the bias. Americans are paying attention—and they’re rejecting the lies.”
🇺🇸 Trump’s Media Strategy: Call Out the Hoaxes
Experts agree: President Trump’s strategy of holding the media accountable is working.
“The media’s obsession with attacking Trump backfired,” one analyst told Fox News. “The press lost the public’s trust, and now most Americans don’t accept the old media narrative.”
📰 Final Word: Don’t Be Fooled by the Noise
While liberal media outlets like The Atlantic push false narratives, the real threat to national security isn’t a group chat—it’s the dishonest reporting designed to divide America.
Despite the noise, the Trump administration remains focused on keeping Americans safe, defeating terrorism, and restoring integrity in Washington.
