Doing us no good': Trump signs order to eliminate US Department of Education - 'Doing us no good': Trump signs order to eliminate US Department of Education BusinessToday Amid growing criticism over a major blunder, the White House faces questions about how a serious mistake occurred and whether it could be repeated. In a shocking error, the Trump administration mistakenly added a journalist to a private chat discussing classified US military plans regarding strikes on the Houthi group in Yemen. Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, was accidentally included in a Signal chat group titled "Houthi PC small group," where high-ranking officials discussed sensitive military strategies, including plans for US strikes in Yemen. The Guardian reported that senior figures, including Vice President JD Vance, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, were using the Signal app to coordinate their efforts. While Signal is encrypted, it is not authorized for sharing classified information. Goldberg, upon realizing he had been added to the chat with 18 senior Trump administration officials, swiftly deleted sensitive materials, including details about a CIA officer and ongoing operations.
