No need to use his wife’s laptop - Hegseth just takes her to classified briefings

I guess she doesn’t trust her husband either.

What To Know
The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that Hegseth brought his wife Jennifer Hegseth to two meetings with foreign military officials, citing multiple people present or with knowledge of the meetings.

One meeting was reportedly held with U.K.'s Secretary of Defense John Healey in the Pentagon on March 6 and discussions included the United States' decision to withdraw from sharing military intelligence with Ukraine amid their war with Russia, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Defense officials told the Wall Street Journal that attendance lists for secretary meetings usually involve people with security clearances due to "the delicate nature of the discussions."

The second meeting was reportedly at the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) headquarters in Brussels, Belgium in February. The meeting was a gathering of officials from other nations to discuss support for Ukraine, the Wall Street Journal says.

How much do you want to bet that Hillary had access to classified information while her husband was president in the 90’s.

Presidential spouses may not attend meetings the way Usha Vance did but I have a hard time believing that information sharing between spouses was nonexistent before this.

IMHO, This is really more about the fact that Trump has filled his administration with people with little or no previous experience in the way government works and the process and procedures involved. Usha Vance was probably included in the meetings because it never occurred to anyone not to.

This lack of experience is why things like signal gate happen. I don’t think it’s because they want to break classified procedures it’s just that no one is there with the experience and authority necessary to get that chaotic group of people under control.

It doesn’t help when the boss is flagrantly violating all the norms, procedures and rules that make the executive branch work in the first place.

So looking at the beginning of 3 out of the first 4 paragraphs, we notice - nothing in particular.

Speaking of fuzzy memories. Remember all those times you raised Holy-Heck when Dr Jill was attending meetings, often with Sleepy Joe missing in action?

Me neither.

Ain't a first.
Nancy use to hear stuff with Ronny.
Maybe because she knew about his dementia?
