President Donald Trump revealed that a staffer with national security
advisor Mike Waltz's office included the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic
in a Signal group chat with senior Trump officials who were discussing
plans for an upcoming strike on Houthi rebels in Yemen.
"It was one of Michael’s people on the phone. A staffer had his number
on there," Trump told NBC in a phone interview when asked how Jeffrey
Goldberg, the Atlantic's editor-in-chief, was added to the high-profile
chat.
The president added that Goldberg's inclusion in the group chat had "no
impact at all" on the strike in Yemen.
Goldberg published an article on Monday detailing how he was added to a
Signal group chat on March 11, reportedly dubbed "Houthi PC Small
Group," which included high-profile government officials, including
Waltz, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe,
White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, Secretary of State Marco Rubio,
Vice President JD Vance and others.
