White House blasts Atlantic reporter in Signal leak as new messages revealed | BBC News

From BBC News.

Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg has published the exact text messages that Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth sent to a high-level White House group chat providing key details about the US strike on Houthi forces in Yemen just hours before the attacks began.

Goldberg has said he’s written a follow-up piece because people deserve to see the texts as they are in the public interest following claims by Trump officials that Goldberg had been lying.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has dismissed the latest article in the Atlantic as "another hoax written by a Trump-hater who is well known for his sensationalist spin".

Meanwhile, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard are being grilled about the security breach before a House committee.
