The Atlantic announced the “war plan” originally withheld in a Monday article that revealed that the editor-in-chief had been mistakenly added to a signal group chat with a coalition of cabinet leaders debating delicacies foreign policy.

Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg Published Monday’s article explains it was incorrectly added to Signal’s group chat, a secure messaging platform used by many politicians and journalists by national security adviser Mike Waltz. The group chat, dubbed the “Houthi PC Small Group,” included many high-ranking ministers, including Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, White House, Defense Secretary of Staff, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Vice President JD Vance.

Cabinet members discussed the military’s plans to bomb Houthi’s rebels and discussed whether Americans would understand why the US was involved. Goldberg said he excluded messages from Heggs in his report as it included what Goldberg described as a “war plan.” He wrote, “It includes operational details of upcoming strikes in Yemen, including information about targets, the weapons deployed by the US, and attack sequences.”

After the management staff It was rejected “War Plans” are discussed and no classified information is shared; Published The text Hegseth sent details in the weapon packages that the US departed for the attack and used, as well as the operational order.

Hours before the US was set to hit Houthis, Hegseth sent the following message to “Houthi PC Small Group”:

“Team Update: Time (1144et): The weather is good. Just confirmed on Centcom. We’re Go for mission launch. 1215et: F-18S Launch (1st Strike Package).

The text continues:

“1410: Other F-18 launches (second strike package). 1415: Target Strike Drone (this is the first bomb is definitely falling, and the previous “trigger-based” target will be put on hold. The 1536F-18 strike begins.

After Goldberg released his first story, the White House said it was checking the credibility of the message and investigating how the editor-in-chief appeared in the chat. As the story circulated, administrative authorities began to deny that war plans had been sent. (Related: White House confirmed to check Heggs, Waltz & Company.

“No one was texting war schedule. And that’s all I have to say about it,” Hegses said at a press conference Tuesday.

The Atlantic published Wednesday’s article with the headline “The attack plan shared by Trump’s advisors at the signal is here.”

The administration then responds, claiming that Goldberg uses the phrase “plan of attack” to acknowledge his original claim that he has a “plan of war.”

Before publication, the Atlantic informed the administration that it was planning to release the text.

Spokesperson Caroline Leavbitt stressed to the Atlantic that none of the chats were classified, but said the administration still opposed the release of the text due to its private nature.

“As we have repeatedly stated, there was no classification information in the group chat. However, as the CIA director and national security advisors expressed today, it does not mean that they encourage the release of the conversation. [sic] Internal and private deliberations between high-level senior staff and confidential information were discussed. Therefore, for that [sic] – Yes, we’re against the release,” writes Leavitt, according to the Atlantic.

The Atlantic acknowledged: these were not “war plans.”

There is no place.

There is no sauce or method.

There is no war plan.

Foreign partners had already been notified that a strike was imminent.

Conclusion: President Trump protects America and our interests.

– Mike Waltz (@mikewaltz47) March 26, 2025

“The Atlantic has already abandoned their bullshit ‘war plan’ narratives, and in releasing a full chat, they admit that they lied to perpetuate yet another hoax to the American people. Taylor Budwich, Vice Chief of Staff of the White House; Tweet.

“There is no place, there is no source or way. There is no war plan. Foreign partners had already been notified of an imminent strike. Tweet.

According to Atlantic, following Hegseth’s message on Signal Chat, Waltz responded with more information.

“Vp. Building has collapsed. Pete, Kurilla, The IC, and multiple amazing jobs,” writes Waltz.

After Vance responded with confusion, Waltz followed up.

“Typing if you’re too fast. The first target – their top missile guy – we had a positive ID that he stepped into his girlfriend’s building, and it’s now collapsed,” Waltz revealed.

In the controversy, President Donald Trump was standing by the waltz and asked him to investigate how Goldberg joined the chat. The White House also responded to the Atlantic narrative by calling it a “coordinated effort” to distract the president from his success in the president’s attack. According to the White House, Houthi terrorists have attacked 174 commercial vessels and 174 commercial vessels during the Biden administration since 2023.

The president and his administration repeatedly attacked the credibility of the Atlantic and Goldberg. Goldberg is the author of the September 2020 story that claims Trump cancelled his 2018 visit to the French Cemetery, where American troops were buried and calls the fallen soldiers “suckers” and “losers.” The credibility of the narrative, based on anonymous sources, is under severe scrutiny as former national security adviser John Bolton denied Trump saying “sucker” and “loser.” Bolton also said Trump did not travel to the cemetery due to weather and safety reasons.

Atlantic Ocean He also published a story detailing an interview with former Trump staff chief John Kelly in October 2024. He claimed that Hitler “doesn’t do good” and wanted a general like a general who served the Nazi dictator and ruled like a fascist. The story also claimed that Trump had a light pardon with the deceased veteran and her family. The story was denied by both Trump administration officials and former officials, as well as by the family of the deceased veterans and their lawyers.
