The Option of the Optics of an OpSec Oopsie

John's monologue discusses the continuing saga of Atlantic EIC Jeffrey Goldberg. Following a day of deflection, denials and attacks on his reporting; he published the content of the Signal group chat he was added to. The released messages show the top administration officials involved in the message thread were misleading at best, downright lying to Congress at worst, when it came to the content and their role in the conversation. Congressional Republicans spent another day downplaying the scandal the way a Texas judge downplays a wealthy white teenager who commits vehicular homicide. The Signal scandal has forced VP Vance to cancel all but one stop on his looming trip to Greenland, even as Pres. Trump doubled down, calling its annexation something we “have to have.” He also talks about Tufts University who released a statement denouncing the arrest and abduction of an international graduate student outside her off-campus housing by Homeland Security. Rumesya Ozturk of Turkey was detained and had her student visa revoked, reportedly for an op-ed she co-authored in the university newspaper. Then, Bob Cesca returns to delve into pop culture and ponder over the stupidity of Signalgate. Next, John speaks with The God Squad featuring former pastor Desimber Rose and theologian Dillion Cruz. They discuss the un-Christian act of republicans gutting Medicare and Medicaid. And finally, legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson joins the crew to talk listeners off the ledge with common sense answers to real world struggles..
