Sorry, I do try to ignore the Orangutan in The White House, but this story has to be commented on. Top Trump cabinet members added The Atlantic editor to a chat discussing strikes on Houthis and did not seem to realise until he shared the story. The person who added the Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor of the Atlantic magazine, may have been Michael Waltz, Trump’s national security adviser. Though Pete Hegseth is being touted by some as the moron who did so.
In the last Trump administration, many of The Best People went to jail. The incompetence of this administration was to be expected considering the backgrounds of the people he has appointed, but this level of stupidity may be hard to beat. But I suspect that they will do their best. And we have almost four more years of this for them to do so.
