Turing wasn't straight, yes ? I didn't see the movie, but I saw some stuff on the History Channel. But in reality I don't care who he was shack'n up with. He was the right man in the right place at the right time. And served not only his nation but the world … 👍

Because of his …predilections… he was found guilty of some stupid law that is not enforced anymore, and "chemically castrated". It affected him so badly he killed himself. Hey! Thanks for winning the war!

The movie is The Imitation Game, and it's well worth watching, if only to see how codes were cracked. The massive mechanical device they used is dwarfed by the cellphone you're holding right now.

John the OFM26 Mar 2025 9:41 p.m. PST

I love how people are blaming an obviously anti-Trump editor and reporter for something that fell into his lap, as if he is part of a sinister conspiracy.

Always remember that stupidity and incompetence explains a lot more than conspiracy. I think that both are in play here.

"And apparently Goldberg was added by his initials, obscuring his identity."

True Bill. It is my understanding that there was an actual administrative member who has the same initials. But honestly, if you are in a meeting and see initials, how many individuals know everyone in a company and if they should be there. In this case, only those who "made the meeting invitations" would know who should or should not be there. That sounds like it was Waltz and his staff members. That is where the investigation should be.

I'm sure the investigation will be at least as well handled as the January 6th bomber, the cocaine in the White House and the Supreme Court Roe vs Wade decision leak was. All of which we quickly had the answers to. 😂🤣

All! Did I leave out the cracking of Trump assassin's cell phone?

John, now there seems to be one that can't be cracked. 😂

Tortorella Supporting Member of TMP27 Mar 2025 6:00 a.m. PST

The bottom line for me – Hesgeth goes into Fox mode and tells us what a terrible person Goldberg is. Not relevant, and in my experience with law enforcement a superior delivering that argument where his subordinates will see it undermines his credibility with them, no matter his service record. You get what he is saying about the guy, yet he was INVITED?

Especially true when Hesgeth needlessly follows up with a text giving minute details of the plans, but his worst guy in the world was ON the list! Then he gets ticked about the war plans question and says there were no war plans. Now his credibility on this matter is gone. And that will chip away at his ability to lead, some thinking he was one of the rank and file but now he looks like another political blame dodger. This is just my opinion, I have no military background, as Legion and others have.

35thOVI Supporting Member of TMP27 Mar 2025 6:23 a.m. PST

But again, Hegseth did not, according to releases, make up the list. That was Waltz and staff.

But I am sure that won't stop the anti-Hegseth cabal from going after him. Nor the anti Gabbard, Patel, Noem, etc. Cabals, going after them.

One has to ask: Why the desperation to get rid of them? "Inexperience"? If that is "really" the concern, where was their "concern" when a dementia riddled President was "in charge" for 4 years? When we have no idea who was making the decisions? Not a peep! In fact, these same people defended him and lied to all of us about his competence! But now we should take these politicians and media seriously? 😂 Now they care about our security? 🤣😂

Right, and the moon is made of green cheese. 😉

John the OFM27 Mar 2025 7:16 a.m. PST

Oh? We know who leaked Roe v Wade decision? Do tell!
Actually, Roe v Wade was more than 25 years ago.
Are you referring to Dobbs?
🤔

35thOVI Supporting Member of TMP27 Mar 2025 7:23 a.m. PST

Obviously you know of which I refer.

John I sometimes think you start off in the morning, disagreeing with the reflection in the mirror. 😉

John the OFM27 Mar 2025 7:36 a.m. PST

First thing I heard Hegseth say was to do the standard "What about?", blaming Hillary.
I'm not about to let her off the hook, at all. In fact, the Clintons were the primary catalyst for my dumping the Democratic Party. In my neck of the woods, being a democrat was a legacy. I was a member, but I never voted that way.
But to equate Hegseth's folly with Hillary is a classic "Look over there! There's a striped rhinoceros!" It's nothing but a distraction.
The classic logical fallacy. I believe it's the tu quoque fallacy.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tu_quoque
Every time you say "Yeah, but what about…" you are equating your misdeeds with theirs. Separate the two, for God's sake! Don't compare. Come clean, and I'll respect you more. Sheesh.
But to claim your soul and actions are faultless is absurd. Just what one would expect from a Fox News host. And he was only a weekend host! Tucker at least had a weekday night gig. (But he's an ass all by himself.)

Search my scribbling here to find ONE word of praise for Hillary, Sleepy Joe, Pelosi, Kamala, etc.
I might have said that AOC is hot. I may have said that Schumer was frightened by how much damage Musk and his Merry Men (and boys) could do if Da Gubmint shut down. So he "voted his conscience", instead of the party line. 🤷 He's still part of the problem.

John the OFM27 Mar 2025 7:39 a.m. PST

John I sometimes think you start off in the morning, disagreeing with the reflection in the mirror. 😉

Then I shave.

So, what DO we know about the leak if Dobbs? I thought the Justices made it a mortal sin to leak who leaked.
We know? Seriously, that's news to me. 🤷

John the OFM27 Mar 2025 7:46 a.m. PST

The "nothing was classified" argument is absurd on the face of it. The information is only "classified" if someone stamps the documents with red ink?
I'm only a life long civilian. But to my ignorant mind, what The Group were jabbering about is the essence of de facto classified. "Hey Jerry! We're going over the top tomorrow at dawn!"
"Danke, Tommy! Thanks for the warning! But we already know! Fritz shot the pigeon!"

35thOVI Supporting Member of TMP27 Mar 2025 7:56 a.m. PST

No, we don't know who leaked, nor who brought the cocaine in or who that infamous bomber was. They could find grandma sitting on a park bench after January 6th, but never that pesky bomber, even though they had videos.

Just like cracking the assassins phone contacts. Whoever designed that non-crackable app should be hired by the government ASAP!! 😂

John, I'm sure the man in the mirror is on your side. Give him a chance. 😉

Now, I want to know why we are moving B2's to Diego Garcia.

Tempest in a Tea pot. The Democrats are on the backfoot and are desperate to do anything and everything they can to block and tear down Trump, so they will beat this dead horse until the skin flays off and they're beating on bare bones.

And then they will move on to the next and the next.

In their blind rage and zeal they risk doing immense damage. And they don't care.

Judges trying to usurp Executive Branch authority are causing a crisis of faith in our Judiciary as we see activist Democrat-aligned judges try to block the very agenda the Majority of Americans elected Trump to do -- Close the Borders, Deport Criminal Aliens and Drain the Swamp. That SCOTUS has not forcefully intervened calls that body into question.

Democrats are resorting to hyperbolic language and Salinsky tactics to demonize people they consider their enemies – like Musk. They loved him right up until he decided to buy Twitter and make it a free speech platform, and they have since aimed incredibly vile and violent rhetoric at him and have been encouraging violence against him and his businesses.

The Democrats have no problem destroying Peace and the global order in order to meet domestic goals -- witness the entire fraud of the RussiaGate hoax they manufactured in order to damage and remove Trump, causing tremendous foreign policy damage and ultimately leading an a preventable and bloody war and driving Russia into an alliance with China.

So they will pose and posture and pretend they are the "adults" when their actions CAUSED THE MIDDLE EAST MELT DOWN! Yes, these "adults" deliberately STARTED or INFLAMED movements and wars in the Middle East to topple secular governments leading to millions of deaths.

So when all is said and done -- someone will be identified as having screwed up, we will know how this hostile journalist got on the inside secure thread and how to prevent it from happening again.

Take the lesson learned and move on. I mean, it's not like it was a private server running in the SecState's home in order to transact messaging to willfully avoid government transparency and accountability requirements, and which was hacked by the Chinese causing immense damage to US foreign relations or anything…

John the OFM27 Mar 2025 9:01 a.m. PST

Seriously? It's the Executive Branch that's doing the usurping. Trump was not elected as an infallible God King. But he's sure acting like he thinks he was.

Seriously? It's the Executive Branch that's doing the usurping. Trump was not elected as an infallible God King. But he's sure acting like he thinks he was.

No. The Executive has control over the Federal Agencies -- those are Executive Branch Agencies, and other than Congressionally passed law has free will within that. USAID for example, was created by an EO and can be shut down by an EO. The Executive also has the power to hire and fire, it's not subject a judge to dictate HR policy.

The Executive also SPENDS the money Budgeted by Congress within the spirit and intent of the law, and nothing says money allocated by foreign aid must go through USAID. State can do that just fine, and it can also decide that spending $10 USD Million on circumcisions in Madagascar, or $1.5 USD Million for a Drag Queen March in Peru doesn't advance US security goals.

The Executive also has authority over National Security, which includes detaining and deporting criminal aliens and terrorists -- it is not up to a judge to decide how the Executive schedules deportation flights, or like the judge who ruled on how Trump can use Air Force One.

You're talking about Bush and Cheney, right? If you're falling back on "Oh yeah? What about…" get your villain�s right.

Oh, hell noes! I'm talking about Obama inflamed the Arab Spring to:

1. Toppled the secular government of Egypt, leading to the rise to power of the Muslin Brotherhood and a popular countercoup to topple those crazies; topple the government of Lebanon resulting in more power to Hezbollah; toppled the government if Tunisia which is now a dictatorship

2. STARTED the Libyan War to topple secular Khadaffi leading to mass casualties and refugee flows and an ongoing civil war. This war was heavily motivated European oil rights, pushing China out of the market. Btw, Khadaffi was the "good dictator" who basically cooperated with the US, so other saw this and said, if this is what the do to you when you comply, fruck that!

3. INFLAMED the Syrian Civil War, causing millions of casualties and refugees by sending arms and aid (some from Libya) to anti-Assad forces, resulting in the rise to power of Al Queda over that nation.

4. Created the conditions for the rise of ISIS by 1) prematurely withdrawing from Iraq and 2) pushing resources into anti-Assad Jihadis who coalesced into ISIS. ISIS ruled over 12 million people, enslaving and murdering minorities and opponents en masse.

5. Gave rise to Iranian power by 1) premature pullout from Iraq left a power void filled by Iran, 2) billions of $$ and relaxation of sanctions on Iran that allowed them to fuel their proxy wars against the Saudis/UAE and Israel and the US, 3) pursuit of the unenforceable nuke deal that advanced Iranian nuclear goals and 4) tacit support FOR the islamist regime of Iran during the Arab Spring. In all other cases, Obama sided with the anti-regime Arab Spring movements -- but not with Iran where the popular street revolt (the Green Revolution) received no recognition or aid from Obama, and he allowed Iran to shoot and beat that movement into the dirt.

So, yea, that's all on them.

It affected him so badly he killed himself. Hey! Thanks for winning the war!
Sadly very true. It really was a shame as his genius was rare.

The movie is The Imitation Game, and it's well worth watching

Yes I heard about it and should watch it on my Video on Demand.

The massive mechanical device they used is dwarfed by the cellphone you're holding right now.
Yeah the FDC Computer on a WWII US battleship was the size of a bus !

I am still using a flip phone … if it was good enough for Kirk and Spock who am I to say otherwise … 🖖

First thing I heard Hegseth say was to do the standard "What about?", blaming Hillary.

No John it is payback highlighting the Dems continuing hypocrisy.

Always remember that stupidity and incompetence explains a lot more than conspiracy. I think that both are in play here.
I don't think anyone on that Signal call was incompetent or stupid. But believe, and I'm sure many know this, sometimes Bleeped text happens … no matter how much you try to mitigate it. E.g. Being put into the wrong LZ at 0 Dark 30. Then having to walk a good part of night to find out where you are so you see where you are supposed to be … the start walking … some more …

Especially true when Hesgeth needlessly follows up with a text giving minute details of the plans,
NO … he only gave TOT and broad descriptions of strike packages. That is not a war plan, an OPLAN or OPORD. There was no grids or target IDs, etc. AND it is also part of his job to keep the rest of the staff, etc. informed.

The rub was Biden OK'd use of this app and the CIA approved it. And this app was encrypted …

The 400lbs Gorilla in the room is how did a reporter who is anti-Trump et al get on the call lists? Investigation continues.

NOW IF the type of intel was included in what is called a SALUTE Report. That would be a different situation. And Hegseth, Waltz, and Gabbard being Army Vets know and understand this. Especially Hegseth … they were Grunts the know how to run a recon patrol …

SALUTE REPORT format :

S – Size
A – Activity
L – Location
U – Unit
T- time
E- Equipment

Note only times were given …

Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth (D) was interviewed on CNN[?]. She was UH-60 pilot shot down in Iraq. Losing both of her legs. Yet she stills continue to serve. She is a true warrior.

In the interview, she being a [former]pilot said that the times were about TOT for each Strike Package/Lifts, etc. So after the first strike the enemy would know there will be more to come. BUT, Tammy … using multiple strikes/serials/waves etc. Generally, the initial strikes are SEADS missions. Those assets go in to Suppress Enemy Air Defense Systems. I.e. Take out enemy radars, ADA sites, C3, etc. To clear the flight routes for the follow-on flights. So they will not be threatened as much by enemy ADA, etc.

Again only TOTs and broad descriptions[not numbers] of the packages were mentioned. E.g. F-18s, TLAMs & drones … that is no secret that is what the US would use. However, I believe B-2s may have been used also. Awaiting more intel to be released.

Regardless, TOTs and very broad descripts were not classified. Basically, it would not be a complete SALUTE report.

The "nothing was classified" argument is absurd on the face of it. The information is only "classified" if someone stamps the documents with red ink?
Not in all cases … again, I had a TS. which BTW is not rare, but not everybody has it. Based on duties and duty assigned position …

Right, and the moon is made of green cheese.
No … It clearly is Swiss … 🌕


Now, I want to know why we are moving B2's to Diego Garcia.

Subject: U.S. Air Force Masses Large B-2 Stealth Bomber Fleet on Diego Garcia: Yemen in the Crosshairs

Well something the last POTUS and his minions didn't understand. Sometimes you have to drop bombs, destroy equipment and kill people if they still are a threat. And at times this death and destruction has to be repeated and often. Especially if they are molsems. As they believe they go to Paradise if they die killing infidels.

And finally the loss of Hegseth, Waltz or Gabbard would only be playing into the Dems hands. IMO these people are the in the right place at the right time. To repair all the damage the previous POTUS, Admin, Dems, etc. did to not only the US but many places in the world.

I just realized just how smart I am. 😄😱
To everyone who asks "Yeah, but what about Hillary's emails?"
Okay. That was bad. Why have we learned nothing from that? She TRUSTED some Radio Shack nonsense, and Our Gang trusted a system that both the Pentagon and NSA warned was not secure. Tulsi linked to it on her phone. Well, we all know how secure our phones are. That's Hacking 101 at the Chinese Cyber School.
Like Fredo whining to Michael. "I'm smart!"

Every 4 years, a new administration sweeps in who absolutely are convinced that they are smarter than the previous ones. And they make the same stupid mistakes.
Hillary's server = Signal. QED
And, both the Pentagon and NSA warned against using it.
And, if the Democrats take over in 2028, President Ocasio-Cortez will be just as arrogant and her crew will make almost identical mistakes.
I'll bet you a case of Yuengling on that.

35thOVI Supporting Member of TMP28 Mar 2025 9:40 a.m. PST

John can you site the document that specifically tells individuals not to use signal?

This is from the Biden administration

Look specifically under general recommendations > Use only

PDF link


This is from cybersecurity-infrastructure security agency

So as has been stated, this was the recommendation as far back as the Biden administration.

Also:

The application was "not hacked" contrary to the MSM line. Someone either mistakenly or non-mistakenly, included a journalist in the invitations. Hacking is NOT the issue.

I can understand why people are confused, with obsessed media pundits going off like this, with anyone and everyone in the government.

@John the OFM -- the issue is not app security, it is secure and has been used for years in that capacity.

No, the issue is HOW did the reporter get added to a secure chat thread.

1. Was he added under Biden and was a legacy member on Signal, and was a pre-approved name that shows up on predictive typing?
2. If no, WHO added him and HOW was he added?
3. What steps will be taken to prevent this in future?

35thOVI Supporting Member of TMP28 Mar 2025 11:57 a.m. PST

John please post the actual pentagon document.

Any article can site unnamed sources and claim dates.

I am not discounting the UK site, but almost all UK sources are anti Trump. I know, I read articles on them. The UK view on TMP reflects those of their news.

I gave the actual government article recommending the use of Signal. So I'd like to see the actual Pentagon issued document overriding the one I posted.

Even the UK article does not say "do not use it", it recommends you be cautious using it. But honestly, that is true of every conference app available. Anything can be hacked. You only need the will, the money, knowledge and equipment.

Lastly, again they were not "hacked". That is important.

If you find it, thanks.

John the OFM28 Mar 2025 1:10 p.m. PST

I believe that NBC reported the Pentagon warning.

No, I have no access to the actual "documents" in either case.

Excuse me, but the REAL ISSUE is that your heroes are just as capable of making stupid mistakes as the past administration. The real issue is the finger pointing and refusal to take responsibility. It's exactly like in the HBO Chernobyl where the bureaucrat hands over a paper saying "Here is a list of names that may be accountable…"
Waltz admitted to adding Goldberg. At least someone is being a man and not a coward. Errr… Tulsi isn't a "man" either… 🤔

I'm back. Apparently this is how things are done in the MAGA Mega Muchly Efficient Trump administration.

It's not just the Kool Kids bombing the Houthis! (Which Biden did too, but not so goodly and bigly.)
It's all over! It's "Take a reporter to lunch day!"

John we knew the butler did it. This was only going to end one way.

John, again:

Did anyone deny that someone either mistakenly or purposely added the reporter?

Simple Yes or No
If Yes, who in this string of posts?

So what are you trying to prove? Even the White House has said someone screwed up. If it was intentional, I want someone's head to roll.

And yes it is completely fair to site Biden, Obama, even the Clintons. Why? To expose the base hypocrisy of those doing the "Holier than thou" accusations now. Why shouldn't we? The MSM ignored them all. The MSM during that time were quieter than a mute in a library.

Yes, around 100 KIA and 300 injured, numerous launch sites, magazines and C2 centres destroyed
Good shoot'n boys ! But seems it was not enough …

Good link kitboy, good intel on BDA, etc. But the Houthis continue to be a problem.

Another good link, thanks Steve. Appears these strikes were more effective than I first thought.

Those did answer my question. Thanks for all that intel. But the Houthis still managed to get some shots off after this latest series of strikes.

More work seems to be done. Maybe Iran should be hit …

My thought based on my experience and training, etc. If resistance continues. Short answer … keep killing more and blow more 💩 up. I'm a former dumb Grunt. in many cases[not all] more firepower can be the solution …

OVI +1

SBm +1

John … you're putting up a Hell of a fight … I'll give you that …

However, to replace/fire some on this Signal call, albeit an error was supposedly made, this would only play into the Dems obsession. To disrupt everything the new admin does.

As well as this series of strikes, were effective regardless. But IMO there is more to this story …

Well I do see I missed the full story/news about these past airstrikes. Listening to some news media sources this morning.

It appears the Biden Admin or DOD was not fully reporting these strikes and much about any BDA. Possibly the DOD for
OPSEC ? Or the Biden admin didn't want to let the US moslem, etc. supporters know that monthly the US was killing moslems. For a number of obvious reasons.

Also it has been reported that the Euro news media was reporting much more details about these strikes.

Albeit limited during Biden's admin, etc. While with the new POTUS the strikes are more numerous, and continuous. Doing a lot more damage. E.g. another CVN Grp is going on station in the region and 5 USAF B-2s are using Deigo Garcia[IIRC] for staging strikes on the Houthis. It appears this new air offensive by the new POTUS is much more robust, deliberate, etc. and doing more damage.

This may end much of the Houthi attacks. As well as these strikes are not only punitive but to do a lot of damage. But to let the Houthis know this POTUS is much serious about killing and destroying their threat to shipping, USN assets, etc. in that region. As well as any shooting they may targeting Isreal.

Which I very much agree with. Generally, as long as they keep shooting. They will continue to be arrited.

It's not just the Kool Kids bombing the Houthis! (Which Biden did too, but not so goodly and bigly.)
Yes John that is a correct statement. Biden's limited/minimal strikes again demonstrated he and his Admin's again fear of escalation and being very risk adverse. There is the right stuff … but Biden's Admin had the wrong stuff …

Irony of ironies, here's Hillary, famously famous for her email server, wagging her finger and throwing in her two cents.

Have fun! It's the NEW YORK TIMES! 😱😱😱😱😱

Yes John as time goes on more and more some will see what is or was really happening or happened. Maybe …

1. Was he added under Biden and was a legacy member on Signal, and was a pre-approved name that shows up on predictive typing?
2. If no, WHO added him and HOW was he added?

Yes this Signal was added during the Biden Admin it appears. So as the CIA honcho said it was added to his phone, etc. by the CIA Geek Squad.

And yes how did the anti-Trump reporter get added ?

It does appear both Putin & the Chicoms were/are hacking signal.

Another interesting point is it is reported that the company which owns Signals is very Liberal, etc. Is there some connection why this company was picked by the last Admin. ?

Disclaimer : I am very biased. The last POTUS, the Dems, their supporters, etc. did real damage to this nation. And it is becoming more and more clear, the media and the Dems knew of Biden's decline. But chose to ignore it. The wanted to not do what was good for we the people. But what was good for their party.

So I am very suspect of anything Biden admin et al did … So don't be too surprised if I don't believe much of what is said positive about this mob.

I will give Hegseth, Gabbard, etc. the benefit of the doubt over anything generally. They are so much better than the last admin's mob …

Yes the Biden administration launched strikes. I saw them reported whenever they happened…. on evil, bias FOX News, no less 😱😱😱

As a side, I am beginning to believe, from news feeds, that those B2's in Diego Garcia, may be there for Iraq's nuke sites. If negotiating fails.

John the OFM29 Mar 2025 12:04 p.m. PST

Do you mean Iran's nuke sites?

35thOVI Supporting Member of TMP29 Mar 2025 1:26 p.m. PST

Oops 😬 yes theirs too. 😉

Unless of course, we finally found those pesky missing Bush era "WMD's".

This thread was entirely predictable.
The Usual Suspects blamed their usual villains. And vice versa.
No minds were changed in either direction.
I hope no freeborn natural American citizens will be deported for incorrect thoughts.

I hope no freeborn natural American citizens will be deported for incorrect thoughts.

You should feel relieved! The Admin most likely to have done that was the Biden Admin which was openly hostile to Free Speech to the point of creating an Orwellian Department of Misinformation and routinely pressured Media and Social Media to suppress news and commentary they didn't like.

John the OFM29 Mar 2025 4:03 p.m. PST

Unlike the Trump administration. 🙄
