Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, as well as Vice President JD Vance and national security adviser Mike Waltz, pushed back against reporting from The Atlantic on Wednesday. The Trump Admin members blasted the far-left rag for claiming the recently leaked Signal texts contained “war plans.”
Hegseth unloaded on X.

“So, let me get this straight. The Atlantic released the so-called “war plans” and those “plans” include: No names. No targets. No locations. No units. No routes. No sources. No methods. And no classified information…

Those are some really …. war plans.
This only proves one thing: Jeff Goldberg has never seen a war plan or an “attack plan” (as he now calls it). Not even close.
As I type this, my team and I are traveling the INDOPACOM region, meeting w/ Commanders (the guys who make REAL “war plans”) and talking to troops.
We will continue to do our job, while the media does what it does best: peddle hoaxes.”

Similarly, Waltz said there were “NO WAR PLANS” shared.
“No locations. No sources & methods. NO WAR PLANS. Foreign partners had already been notified that strikes were imminent. BOTTOM LINE: President Trump is protecting America and our interests,” Waltz said.

JD Vance, who was also on the Signal text thread, said it’s clear that Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg “oversold what he had.”
“It’s very clear Goldberg oversold what he had. But one thing in particular really stands out. Remember when he was attacking Ratcliffe for blowing the cover for a CIA agent? Turns out Ratcliffe was simply naming his chief of staff,” Vance said.
