The top republican and the Democrat in a Congress committee of the Senate sent a letter to the Department of Defense General in order to apply for an investigation, as the top national security officers of Trump’s signal used to discuss military strikes.
Senator Roger Wicker from Mississippi, the Republican Chairman of the Committee, signs the letter, to which an investigation of the potential “use of non -classified networks to discuss sensitive and classified information, and to discuss the classified information, and know that you need to know and need to know.”
Their move comes when the highest law enforcement officers of the nation did not oblige public inquiries to the matter.
The FBI director Kash Patel, who was not part of a signal chat, in which Donald Trump’s national security officers discussed the detailed attack plans, would not comment on whether the FBI opened an examination on two days from Capitol Hill hearing at the beginning of this week.
He testified that he accidentally checked the text messages, which accidentally checked Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic, which was incorrectly included in an unclassified signal chat.
The Ministry of Justice has a broad discretion to open an investigation, although it is still unclear whether Attorney General Pam Bondi would approved such an investigation.
“A very successful mission”
The Trump administration officials insist that the divided details were not classified, although the spy law technically technically criminalized the abuse of information that is regarded as a closely regarded national defense information, even if they are not classified.
Bondi met a defiant tone at a press conference in Virginia on Thursday to greet the arrest of a gang leader when he asked a reporter whether the department was involved at this time.
“First, it was sensitive information – not classified – an accidentally published,” she said. “We should talk about it was a very successful mission. Our world is safer because of this mission.”
Bondi then mentioned the investigation that was started months and years ago in the treatment of classified material in relation to Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. There were no criminal complaints from these inquiries.
In her answer, Bondi did not mention that Trump was suspended against the spy law in a criminal charge against the spy law before he was re -elected as president. Sensitive documents were allegedly found in Florida and New Jersey, which he had, but the case was rejected, and since this judgment was appealed, Trump won November 5, 2024, whereby the choice was effectively excited.
This week, Trump insisted that the agency is not really an FBI thing to get involved in such a matter, although the reality is that the FBI and the Ministry of Justice are for decades to enforce statutes for the spy law on the mismanagement – whether deliberately or negligent – of national defense information.
This list contains the case of David Petraeus, the former CIA director, who was sentenced to two years of probation in 2015 because he had disclosed a biographer with which he had an out -marginal affair.
Democrats called Defense Minister Pete Hegseth to withdraw information about US weapons and the Houthi Aistrices by signal, an app available in the trade, which is not approved by the Federal Government for the treatment of classification material.
They also said concerns that Trump’s nominated civil servants – who as a candidate, complained about what he believed, was the weapons of the Ministry of Justice – is not pursued.
“Having it,” says Republican Senator
In addition to the protest that the information was not classified, several Trump officials alternately complained about the motifs and credibility of Goldberg, the journalist.
In the comments on Wednesday, Trump did not seem to understand the functionality of the signal and seemed to indicate that the app could not work.
Even some Republicans expressed reporters from the news that comes from the White House.
“Obtain it, it happened and say it will never happen again,” said Senator Kevin Cramer from North Dakota.
In their letter, Wicker and Reed Steven Stebbins, general inspector of the incumbent inspector at the Ministry of Defense, want to go to:
- Take into account what has been communicated and all measures to pursue communication.
- Rate the guidelines of the Pentagon to exchange sensitive and classified information as well as its guidelines for classification and declassification.
- Identify discrepancies in the classification guidelines between the White House, the Pentagon, the secret services and other agencies.
- Rate whether someone has transferred classified information about the signal.
- Submit recommendations to tackle all identified problems.
Causes regarding the number of civilian fatalities
The strikes against the Houthis supported by Iran began to continue on March 15 and.
Trump’s whereabouts when the signal chat took place and is not yet clear in the hours before it.
The Airwars group based in Great Britain says that at least five US strikes were injured or killed in civilians, based on videos and photos from the website, the Houthi declarations and other details. The signal chat refers to a building in which a “girlfriend” of a high-quality goal resided.
The US military has not recognized civilian victims since the strike began over a week ago. It declined to answer questions about possible civilian victims, but said that the “Houthis continues to lie and communicate disinformation”.
According to Houthis 57, the number of fatalities from the attacks is.
The Trump administration allows the US-CAM Middle East, the US armed forces to start offensive strikes at will, instead of logging off the white house in every attack as under the former President Joe Biden.
Colorado’s congress member, Jim Himes, says that chat about Houthi Airanges accidentally continued to journalists, could easily have been intercepted by the US rival.
The Trump administration promised a harder attitude towards the Houthi rebels of Yemen, and its new Airangrike campaign seems to be more intensive and extensive, according to an Associated Press check.
The Houthis aimed at over 100 dealership ships with rockets and drones, sank two and killed four sailors during their campaign from November 2023. The campaign occurred after Israel had started a war in Gaza, which was described on October 7, 2023 under the direction of Hamas from fatal attacks by several western countries as a group of terrorists.
The Houthis have not recognized any losses in their leadership through recent air raids.
On Thursday, they claimed responsibility for two rockets with long-distance missiles to Israel.
Air strain sirens were heard in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Zentralrelel and the occupied West Bank with the local media reports
Fragments fell in several places. Israel’s military said that the rockets were intercepted and there were no reports on injuries.
