'Amateur hour': Hegseth sent classified info to 'people he knows do not have clearance,' expert says - MSNBC Prime
Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth has handled sensitive information concerning impending U.S. military strikes using the commercial messaging app Signal in two different group chats that we know about. We have exclusive, new NBC News reporting that it was the leader of U.S. Central Command who shared the detailed information about those strikes with Hegseth through a secured government system as one is supposed to do with such information. Minutes after receiving it, Hegseth turned to his personal phone and shared some of it on the two group chats, according to three U.S. officials with direct knowledge of the exchanges. - Aired on 04/22/2025.
