that we know from Jeff Goldberg's reporting that Pete Hegseth, the defense secretary, shared sensitive military plans, including attack targets, timing, sequencing, the ordnance or the bomb types that they were going to use. That is all inherently classified. Tulsi Gabbard is either lying or being deliberately evasive by trying to say no intelligence material was shared.

She may be trying to be very cute by half and suggesting that no product produced by the intelligence community, as opposed to the Defense Department, was shared on that chat. We have no way of knowing that. We do know, apparently, that the CIA director exposed a covert operative's name on the chat. That's inherently classified.

But more to the point, then, let me explain how national security decision-making is supposed to work. If you're having a meeting of this National Security Principles Committee, as we call it, it is typically held in person in the White House Situation Room, which is a very secure facility in the basement of the White House.

You're not allowed to take your Apple Watch into the Situation Room. You leave all of that outside because those devices – we know can be hacked by our adversaries and used as listening devices so that the Russians could be listening to everything said in the Situation Room if you brought your phone in.

We conduct meetings of the national security principals and deputies in the Situation Room precisely so that we have that kind of secure bubble that can't be infiltrated by our adversaries.
