Hillary Clinton called out after weighing in on Trump admin’s Signal chain scandal: ‘She should not be talking’ 

Hillary Clinton faced backlash on social media Monday after expressing shock at top Trump administration officials mistakenly adding a journalist to a Signal message chain discussing recent military strikes in Yemen. 

“You have got to be kidding me,” Clinton wrote on X, including an eyes emoji.  

The former secretary of state’s tweet came in response to an article in The Atlantic revealing a stunning breach of national security involving high-level Trump administration officials.  

The magazine’s editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, revealed in the piece that he was inadvertently included in a group text with Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, national security adviser Mike Waltz and other Trump administration officials where internal deliberations and operational details about airstrikes against Houthi terrorists were discussed. 

Goldberg was added to the Signal chain on March 11 and the strikes were carried out on March 15. 

Social media users mocked Clinton’s reaction – noting that the 77-year-old former secretary of state was dogged by her own self-inflicted national security scandal during her failed 2016 presidential bid.

“She should not be talking…,” Kyle Adams, a former Republican political consultant, wrote on X. 

“Sit this one out, you vile witch,” conservative influencer Gunther Eagleman tweeted. 

“I’m old enough to remember when you used a server in your basement and nothing happened to you,” Michael J. Morrison, a member of the New York Young Republicans noted. 

Clinton’s infamous email server fiasco led to a federal probe, but she was never charged.

Former FBI Director James Comey announced in July 2016 ​that the bureau was not recommending criminal charges against the Obama administration’s top diplomat even though she was “extremely careless” in using the private server to store sensitive government documents.

“Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information,” Comey said when he announced that no charges would be brought against the ex-secretary of state.

The FBI probe found that Clinton stored tens of thousands of emails from her time at the State Department on several different unsecured private servers – including seven email chains discussing classified material determined to be at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level. 

In total, Comey’s investigation discovered 113 emails in 52 email chains that contained classified information.
