You can’t make this up, folks. The radical left is at it again, and this time they’ve dragged out one of their favorite weapons: activist litigation.
The far-left watchdog group American Oversight—known for its relentless crusade against anything remotely tied to conservative values—has filed a lawsuit targeting some of President Trump’s most loyal warriors, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and DNI Tulsi Gabbard. Their supposed crime? Using the double-encrypted messaging app Signal to communicate about military operations.
This latest witch hunt stems from a wild claim by Jeffrey Goldberg, the notoriously anti-Trump editor-in-chief of The Atlantic.
Goldberg claimed he was “accidentally” added to a secure Signal group chat where top Trump officials were allegedly discussing sensitive military actions against Iran-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen.
But here’s where it gets good. During a Senate Intel Committee hearing on Tuesday, CIA Director John Ratcliffe blew Goldberg’s story to smithereens. Ratcliffe testified that no undercover CIA agent was part of the Signal chat—debunking the leftist fantasy of some cloak-and-dagger conspiracy. Even better, he confirmed that Signal is fully approved for government use.
In fact, the app was installed on his own computer by the CIA after he took the job. Oh, and here’s a fun fact for the hypocrites at American Oversight: the Obama administration used Signal too. Where was their outrage then?
The Gateway Pundit reported moments ago that Team Trump angrily fired back and called Goldberg a liar, saying no war plans were discussed. Now, Goldberg and his co-worker Shane Harris have published details of the military plans against the Houthis to call Team Trump’s bluff and humiliate Trump.
However, astute TGP readers will note that Goldberg called these details “war plans” to ensure maximum media coverage. He wanted readers to believe he had obtained top-secret military information and was doing the nation a favor by not leaking it. Now he is calling the leaks “attack plans.”

Ratcliffe and Gabbard both doubled down, stating unequivocally that no classified information was shared in the chat—not even a crumb for Goldberg to twist into his next smear.
Yet, that didn’t stop American Oversight from filing a lawsuit demanding a temporary restraining order.
They’ve hauled in Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and even the National Archives, claiming this Signal chat somehow violates the Presidential Records Act.
And who’s been tapped to oversee this circus? None other than Judge James E. Boasberg—an Obama appointee with a track record of judicial activism.
