"Mainstream media propagandists": MAGA movement freaks out as Signalgate texts are released

The reveal that top advisers to President Donald Trump had accidentally leaked war plans to the press sent the Trump administration into denial. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene attacked the media for giving air to a scandal they viewed as ridiculously overblown. CNN's Kaitlan Collins asked if President Trump felt "misled" by his Cabinet, who assured him that no classified information had been shared in the compromised Signal chat. Fox News' Jacqui Heinrich pressed Leavitt on what counts as classified information, asking her directly why "launch times on a mission" were not considered classified by the White House. In a post to social media, he said the texts he sent would have made "really s**tty war plans."
