An incident involving sensitive discussions among top Trump administration officials has sparked concern—Hegseth and others disclosed mission details in a group chat on a messaging app. Jeffrey Goldberg, editor in chief of The Atlantic, revealed he was mistakenly included in the conversation, which he claims could have jeopardized the safety of U.S. pilots involved.
