In an interview with The Atlantic, President Trump discussed security breaches within his administration, particularly relating to the use of the messaging app Signal. After a significant leak involving military plans shared in a Signal chat, Trump advised against using the app, stating, "Maybe don't use Signal, okay?" He confirmed the safety of officials involved and reflected on an incident where he unintentionally called a reporter at 1:30 AM, linking it humorously to the app. The interview highlighted ongoing concerns of communication and security in his administration.
I think we learned: Maybe don't use Signal, okay? Trump said. If you want to know the truth. I would frankly tell these people not to use Signal.
In the interview, Trump reiterated that Waltz and Hegseth are respectively fine and safe in their current roles.
At the very end of the interview, Scherer asked Trump about an early-morning phone call the reporter got from the president.
The stunning report sparked a weeklong news cycle about security breaches in the Trump administration.
