Karoline Leavitt’s Update On War Group Chat Fiasco Has Critics Saying… Wait, What?

Donald Trump’s press secretary was slammed as the “resident minister of propaganda” on social media.

President Donald Trump’s administration is done with talking about the group war chat scandal. And so should everyone else now, too.

That appeared to be the message on Monday from White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, after she was asked for an update on any review into the fiasco that saw the number of The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg’ accidentally added to an exchange on the messaging app Signal in which top Trump officials discussed a war strike on Yemen.

“This case has been closed here at the White House, as far as we are concerned,” said Leavitt. “There have been steps made to ensure that something like that can obviously never happen again.”

Leavitt didn’t detail exactly what “steps.”

“We’re moving forward,” she added.

Critics, though, argued the case hadn’t really been opened and demanded accountability for the security gaffe that, so far, appears not to have seen any official face consequences.
