Have the Democrats declared that this is “bigger than Watergate!” yet? Because — checks watch — it’s definitely gonna happen. I’ve lost track of all the GOP scandals that were “bigger than Watergate!” but it’s still the left’s go-to epithet. If they haven’t used the phrase yet, I’ll bet you a Diet Coke they’ll use it by noon tomorrow.
By now, you’ve heard the news: In a weird, inexplicable SNAFU, journalist Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic was inadvertently included in a Signal conversation with high-level White House officials, where he eavesdropped on their planning for the (successful) attack on the Houthis. Although it sounds implausible, this Signal conversation has been authenticated by administration officials.
Goldberg contends that Michael Waltz — the U.S. national security advisor — invited him to connect on Signal and join the conversation. And for a short while, that was the dominant theory throughout DC: Waltz was careless, invited the wrong guy, and nobody realized the mistake until Goldberg left the chat.
But what if something else was going on?
Mike Waltz was on Fox News on Tuesday evening, talking about the incident with Laura Ingraham.
