how could anyone have done anything illegal lmao. You said the government said it wasn’t a big deal and you’re not worried and you said nothing discussed was classified or sensitive information, so what possibly could be illegal and needed to investigate?
You're focused on what the text was. The national security issue is that someone without a security clearance was on a text circle where participants needed to have a top secret clearance to be on it. And there's something else beyond that even. A need to know. Someone can have a top secret clearance but not be privy to what is being discussed by certain officials on certain topics.
AND FOR THE TRILLIONTH TIME, I didn't say someone did anything illegal. I said the matter should be investigated and IF, IF, IF someone did something illegal they should be held accountable. Either someone made a mistake, or blunder, and they need to make sure it doesn't happen again, or someone may have had a sinister motive for including that reporter. That's why you investigate, to ascertain the truth. Why is this difficult to understand?
