A bizarre security breach unfolded in the Oval Office when Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg unexpectedly wandered into a classified meeting about the Air Force's new F-47 fighter jets, according to insiders who talked to NBC News.
The intrusion left high-level defense experts alarmed — and revealed the Trump administration's increasingly casual approach to national security protocols, the report stated.
According to NBC, Zuckerberg wandered in unannounced, shocking White House staffers who leapt to remove the tech billionaire from the sensitive military briefing. The report doesn't say when the meeting happened.
Sources described the incident as taking place in a "bizarro world" environment, with military leaders "mystified and a bit unnerved" by the apparent lack of security.
The meeting, which involved Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, among others, was punctuated by additional unusual interruptions. A young aide casually entered the room to show Trump something on a laptop, while the president's phone continuously buzzed with incoming calls.
One meeting attendee expressed particular concern about the potential for "spillage" — a term indicating the risk of classified information being compromised.
Zuckerberg, who has reportedly been dubbed "MAGA Mark" by some Meta staffers, was reportedly asked to wait outside after officials realized he lacked the necessary security clearance to be there. The incident highlights growing questions about the Trump administration's approach to confidential government proceedings.
Neither Meta nor the White House commented to NBC News about the security lapse
