Hey, I'm Scott Schaefer.

And I'm Marisa Lagos.

We host political breakdown.

With the 2024 election over and President Trump in the White House, there's going to be a lot to keep up with this year.

Political breakdown has got you covered.

We'll bring smart analysis, a wide range of voices, and even some laughs.

Join us for political breakdown every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from KQED, part of the NPR network.

Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Jack Spear. The Trump administration accidentally texted

top secret war plans to a journalist. The mistake is causing an uproar. NPR's moral

license reports hours after it came out. President

Trump said he didn't know anything about it. The editor-in-chief of the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg,

says he was included in a signal group chat where defense secretary Pete Hegseth shared war plans,

including precise information about weapons and targets, hours before the U.S. attacked the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Goldberg said at first he thought it was disinformation, maybe generated by AI. But then when the

bombs started falling, he knew it was real. Members of Congress and former defense secretary

said the breach was amateurish and incompetent. A spokesman for the National Security Council

said the message thread appears to be

authentic and that the White House is reviewing how an inadvertent number was added to the chain.

When asked, President Trump said he didn't know anything about the disclosure, but that he isn't a big fan of the Atlantic magazine.
