A major security mishap rocked the Trump administration this week. Top officials accidentally included a liberal journalist in secret talks about bombing Yemen. Meanwhile, supporters continue rallying behind Derek Chauvin, the former cop convicted in George Floyd’s death.
Jeffrey Goldberg, editor of The Atlantic, got added to a private Signal chat with Trump’s national security team. They discussed exact details of U.S. strikes on Houthi rebels. The White House admitted the chat was real but called it a minor mistake. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the strikes succeeded despite the leak. Critics like Senator Jack Reed slammed the “recklessness,” but Trump backed his team, calling it a “glitch.”
The leaked texts showed Vice President JD Vance arguing against rushing into the Yemen operation. He worried about helping Europe too much, calling it “bailing them out again.” Officials like Stephen Miller wanted Europe to pay America back for protecting trade routes. The administration insists no classified info was shared, but Goldberg claims he saw attack plans he refused to publish.
On the Chauvin front, grassroots donors are flooding his legal defense fund. Over $200,000 has been raised by folks calling his trial unfair. The Minneapolis police union put $1 million into his defense, arguing he’s a scapegoat for political anger. Supporters say media lies and mob justice ruined an innocent man’s life.
Chauvin’s backers point to the rushed $27 million settlement Minneapolis paid Floyd’s family mid-trial. They claim it poisoned the jury. His appeal lawyers argue the trial was a sham, with prosecutors using emotional tactics over facts. Police unions say officers deserve strong legal help against “witch hunts.”
The Trump team’s Signal chat blunder highlights how real decisions get made—fast and outside bureaucratic red tape. While coastal elites clutch pearls over “security,” Trump officials focused on results. The Houthi strikes worked, proving strong leadership matters more than process obsessions.
For Chauvin, everyday Americans see a man railroaded by fake news and a broken system. His mom’s fundraising page fills with prayers and calls to “trust God.” As one donor wrote, “They wanted someone to blame…Derek didn’t do anything wrong.”
Both stories show a country where the elite class protects itself while attacking hardworking patriots. Whether targeting Trump’s America First team or cops like Chauvin, the establishment punishes those who defy woke narratives. Regular folks see through the charade and stand with the truth.
