Скачать или смотреть “Signal-Gate,” Media Spin & Rebuilding the Military: Caldwell & Zelnick on Trump’s War Doctrine

John Solomon & Amanda Head revisit The Atlantic’s hyped “Signal-Gate” tale... Jeffrey Goldberg’s claim he was accidentally added to a Trump admin Signal chat and allegedly saw “war plans." Former senior DoD officials Dan Caldwell and Darren Zelnick explain why the story fizzled, how secure comms actually worked, and what the media left out. Then they dive into President Trump’s foreign-policy reset: rebranding focus at the Department of War, scrapping DEI bloat, fixing recruiting, refocusing on China and the Western Hemisphere, and demanding accountability for the Afghanistan debacle—up to the four-stars. Results over box-checking, merit over wokeness.
