Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and other high-profile figures were discussing \u201coperational details of the planned attack on Yemen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Goldberg claims he was added to the chat by mistake and remained unnoticed while members of the president\u2019s cabinet debated policy and planned bombing operations. Critics argue that this incident compromised U.S. national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Waltz accepted responsibility, he continued to deflect blame, insulted Goldberg, and called the mistake inexplicable, <em>The Guardian<\/em> reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s embarrassing, yes. But we will get to the bottom of it,\u201d he said, adding that he had consulted with Elon Musk. \u201cWe have the best tech minds investigating how this happened. The staff is not responsible. I take full responsibility. I created the group, and it was my job to ensure everything was coordinated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">FIND OUT MORE IN ENGLISH:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fserbiantimes%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02Fctq9j7p4c1AwihKXFiZcb7ZerZpaCoX6uqMGVQ4KsoErgHKmq52yzub6W5Ai2CTl&#038;show_text=true&#038;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"250\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked how the journalist ended up in the group, Waltz responded: \u201cHave you ever had someone\u2019s contact, and someone\u2019s number? Of course, I didn\u2019t see this loser in the group. It looked like someone else. Whether he did it intentionally or it was just a technical coincidence\u2014that\u2019s what we\u2019re trying to figure out.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said he does not know Goldberg, nor have they ever communicated, calling him \u201cthe biggest journalistic scum.\u201d He also criticized the media for focusing on the controversy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Waltz claimed the staff was not responsible, Trump stated that he \u201cbelieves someone was on the line, someone with clearance, someone who\u2026 worked with Waltz at a lower level, had Goldberg\u2019s number, or a call through the app. That\u2019s how this guy ended up in the chat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s a good man who learned a lesson,\u201d Trump said about Waltz, downplaying the incident by saying it was the only issue to occur in the past two months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbian-expert-team-data-indicates-that-nato-deliberately-committed-genocide-in-yugoslavia-in-1999\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIAN EXPERT TEAM: Data indicates that NATO deliberately committed genocide in Yugoslavia in 1999!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/beauty-queen-mother-of-six-and-a-heroine-ljiljana-volunteered-in-99-put-on-the-uniform-and-died-defending-kosovo-and-metohija-photo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">BEAUTY QUEEN, MOTHER OF SIX, AND A HEROINE: Ljiljana volunteered in \u201999, put on the uniform, and died defending Kosovo and Metohija!
