House Republican calls Pete Hegseth Signal report ‘unacceptable’

Representative Don Bacon, R-NB. On Monday that he will not tolerate the Defense Minister Beit Higseth again with the participation of sensitive information about military operations in the Al -Insarat Group chat.

“If the reports are correct, this is unacceptable. I will never tell the White House what to do, but I will not tolerate it,” Pion told Fox News Digital.

Bacon, a retired military and republican military officer in the House of Representatives Armed Services Committee, said that it will be “unacceptable” if Higseth sent secret information in a conversation about a mission in Yemen targeting the Houthis. The New York Times reported on Sunday that Higseth participated in information about strikes on March 15 in Yemen in the chat of a special signal group that included his wife, brother and personal lawyer, claiming that it was the same joint plans in the separate sign chat that included an editor in the Atlantic.

The alleged White House tearing the Pentagon leakage, “shattered vanity

Bacon Politico told that he had reservations about the Higseth experience since his nomination, and while a spokesman for the Bacon office on Fox News Degreter confirmed that he would not tell president Donald Trump to shoot at Higseth, Pacon said that he “will not tolerate” the last Higseth reports if he is the supreme leader.

White House officials joined Higseth in the denial of reports.

“Regardless of the number of times the Legacy Media tries to revive the same lesson, they cannot change the fact that no secret information has been shared.” The dropouts “recently continued to distort the truth to calm their broken vanity and undermine the president’s agenda, but the administration will continue to calculate it on its account.”

Trump himself closed the reports, describing it as “fake news”, promoting employment rates and the leadership of Higseth to the armed forces.

“The president stands strongly behind Minister Higseth, who is doing a huge job leading the Pentagon,” said White House journalist Caroline Levitte in Fox News on Monday.

HegSeth expressed his regret “disturbed employees” and “unknown stains” when pressed by correspondents during the white egg roll at the White House about the latest signal controversy.

“This is why we are fighting fake media. This group here is full of trick,” said Higseth.

The Trump administration confirmed that no material classified in the signal chat was reported by the Atlantic Ocean. The reference is the application of an encrypted correspondence with additional safety measures that keep the messages especially for those included in the correspondence.
