Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, revealed he was accidentally included in a group chat with top White House officials who were discussing plans for military action in Yemen.
In an article released Monday, Goldberg wrote that on March 11 he received a “connection request” on the Signal app from White House national security adviser Mike Waltz, which he accepted, thinking that Waltz “wanted to chat about Ukraine, or Iran, or some other important matter.”
On March 13, just days before the U.S. launched airstrikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen, Goldberg received a notice that he “was to be included in a Signal chat group … called the ‘Houthi PC small group,'” in which Waltz reportedly sent a message that read: “Team — establishing a principles [sic] group for coordination on Houthis, particularly for over the next 72 hours. My deputy Alex Wong is pulling together a tiger team at deputies/agency Chief of Staff level following up from the meeting in the Sit Room this morning for action items and will be sending that out later this evening.”
