‘Horrified’: Trump Cabinet Accidentally Leaking War Plans Prompts Alarm in Washington

Top congressional Democrats and former U.S. National security officials are alarmed over the accidental leak of U.S. War plans by Trump cabinet officials on a non-government messaging app, as confirmed to be authentic by the White House.
The leaked information included operational details about military strikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen, which Democratic Rep. Jim Himes called a brazen violation of national security laws.
Democratic Rep. Gregory Meeks called for an immediate hearing on the leak, describing it as potentially the most astonishing breach of national security in recent history.
President Donald Trump claimed he was unaware of the leak and criticized the Atlantic magazine, stating, 'I don’t know anything about it. I’m not a big fan of the Atlantic.
