This is Radio Atlantic.
I'm Claudina Baid in Farhana Rosen.
On Monday, the Atlantic reported that our editor in chief,
Jeffrey Goldberg, was added to a Signal Group chat.
It was a thread with senior Trump administration officials that included sensitive military information about an attack on Houthi targets in Yemen.
On the day of the attack, March 15,
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared operational details two hours before the strikes.
And Brian Hughes, the spokesman for the National Security Council,
confirmed the veracity of the chat.
Earlier this week, Jeff and Atlantic staff writer Shane Harris were on the show.
Since then,
administration officials have roundly denied there was any classified information in the thread,
including in testimony before Congress.
Director Gabbard,
you are the security executive and set access guidelines for classified information.
Did you contact the Defense Secretary or others after this specific military planning was put out and say,
hey, we should be doing this in a scif?
There was no classified material that was shared in that scif.
So then if there was no classified material, share it with the committee.
With me now is Shane Harris, who covers national security.
