正文:Members of President T’s cabinet insisted at a House committee hearing on Wednesday that there was nothing wrong with using a consumer messaging app to discuss U.S. military plans to strike Houthi targets in Yemen. On Tuesday, the spy chiefs told the Senate that they did not believe any of their material, nor classified “intelligence,” had been exposed in the chat, where senior officials discussed the timing, advisability and possible targets of the administration’s planned airstrikes on Houthis in Yemen. Their answer at least left open the idea that some of the Pentagon plans shared in the chat might have been classified.
