The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, hit back at Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth moments after the Pentagon chief vigorously denied ever sharing top secret war plans via a Signal group chat that included the journalist.

“The whole thing is just a very flummoxing to me because I haven't seen this kind of unserious behavior before,” Goldberg told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki in some of his first public comments after he stunned Capitol Hill when he broke his story Monday.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth responded to the bombshell story that he accidentally shared highly classified defense plans with a reporter by slamming the journalist as "deceitful." But the Trump administration has a far bigger problem on its hands than that, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Monday evening.

For starters, he said, the mere fact this kind of information was being sent over a Signal group chat is astonishing: "I don't know anybody on the Intelligence Committee here that I serve on that would have done anything close to this kind of conversation."

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has no one to blame but himself for the serious leak of highly classified military information, Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) said on CNN's "OutFront" — and he has to acknowledge the buck stops with him.

The Trump White House was plunged into turmoil and finger-pointing on Monday after it was revealed that Hegseth disclosed specific plans detailing where and how the U.S. could initiate and attack in a group chat on Signal that included not only a number of national security officials who should know better, but a reporter as well.

Far-right legal activist Mike Davis told Steve Bannon on his "War Room" show that Republican lawmakers need to start threatening judges who block President Donald Trump from carrying out his policies.

"It's really important that the House and Senate step up and rein in these activist judges who are sabotaging the president's Article II executive powers," said Davis, a former law clerk for now-Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch. "They think they're the last line of resistance because they lost the election."

Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) sparked a round of criticism in his home district after he skipped a town hall and instead sent a staffer to deliver donuts – a stunt which further generated backlash when the MAGA lawmaker posted a video seeming to mock the snubbed attendees.

And Banks doubled down on social media.

President Donald Trump's obsession with acquiring Greenland from Denmark appears to be blowing up in his face, The New York Times reported on Monday.

"His decision, announced this weekend, to send a high-powered U.S. delegation to the island, apparently uninvited, is already backfiring," wrote Jeffrey Gettleman and Maya Tekeli. "The administration tried to present it as a friendly trip, saying that Usha Vance, the wife of Vice President JD Vance, would attend a dogsled race this week with one of their sons and that Michael Waltz, the national security adviser, would tour an American military base."

A combination of “sloppiness” and reckless disregard for the law led to the “emergency” situation created by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth sharing top-secret war plans in a Signal chat with other high-level Trump administration officials – and a reporter.

That’s according to Rep Jamie Raskin (D-MD), who made clear during a CNN interview hours after the bombshell report emerged that the development involving highly sensitive information being discussed freely via a messaging app violated the law.

Fox News host Will Cain, a former colleague of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's "Fox & Friends" days, praised Trump administration officials after a journalist from The Atlantic accidentally received secret war plans against Yemen.

"If it was accidental, and we'll wait to see if this was accidental, it is incredibly concerning that this information would be shared over the Signal app with the journalist included," Cain acknowledged on his Monday show. "But the bigger takeaway for me is it's an insight, a transparent insight into the thought process and dialogue of our national leaders."

Pastor Paula White-Cain is making big promises if donors send her $1,000 before Easter.

RightWingWatch revealed a video of President Donald Trump's "special government employee," who is fundraising ahead of Passover and Easter.

President Donald Trump lashed out at The Atlantic magazine after top secret war plans were shared with a journalist from the outlet who was somehow added to a Signal chat group of defense officials.

On Monday, Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, revealed that he had been included in the secret chat group discussing strikes against Yemen earlier this month.

U.S. Circuit Judge Patricia Millett hammered Justice Department lawyer Drew Ensign during an appeals court hearing on Monday over the forced deportations of immigrants to El Salvador.

President Donald Trump used the Alien Enemy Act to claim that Venezuelan nationals his administration intended to deport were gang members and had effectively invaded the U.S.

President Donald Trump appeared to forget the name of the second lady of the United States ahead of her visit to Greenland later this week.

At a cabinet meeting on Monday, Trump was asked about Usha Vance's upcoming trip to the Danish territory.
