The leaked Signal conversation among cabinet members reveals their confirmation to proceed with the traditional presidential turkey pardon, humorously referred to as “Operation Thanksgiving.” The chat also features playful banter, comparing the turkey’s diplomatic ties, governance skills, and intelligence to those of the vice president and intelligence agencies.
Signal Chat Transcript:
Waltz (11:44 am ET): Just confirmed with POTUS. Pardoning turkey is a go. Operation Thanksgiving is underway. 🦃💪
Vance (11:50 am ET): Let’s not forget the real implications here. This turkey has more diplomatic ties and a firmer grasp of governance than our current VP.
Hegseth (11:52 am ET): Dang, Vance. Pulling no punches today. You say it like it is, man. That turkey has got some serious clout. 🦃💼
Rubio (12:10 pm ET): Guys, let’s stay on task here. I’m sure the turkey will be grateful for the pardon.
Gabbard (12:14 pm ET): Marco, you’re such a softie. That turkey probably has more intel than our intelligence agencies. 🕵️♂️
Miller (12:20 pm ET): Excuse me while I seethe privately over the lack of respect for the turkey.
Waltz (12:25 pm ET): Gentlemen, can we possibly get back on topic here? Turkey humor aside, I have more important updates coming in.
Vance (12:30 pm ET): Yeah, yeah. Waltz, you’re like that kid in school who takes group projects way too seriously.
Hegseth (12:35 pm ET): 🤣 Vance, you’re killing me. Of course Waltz is that kid. 🤓
Rubio (12:45 pm ET): Guys, we all know Waltz is just making sure we don’t drop the ball. Turkey humor is fun, but let’s keep it professional.
Gabbard (12:55 pm ET): Guys, I just heard from my contacts in Russia. They want a piece of the turkey. 🦃🇷🇺
Miller (1:00 pm ET): Is anyone else seriously considering defecting to Russia after that comment?
Waltz (1:05 pm ET): This conversation is becoming increasingly nonsensical. Moving forward…
Kent (1:14 pm ET): Breaking news: Trump just tweeted about the turkey. He thinks it’s a Democrat. 🦃🔵
Vance (1:25 pm ET): Why does everything always come back to Trump?
Hegseth (1:30 pm ET): Because he’s Trump, man. Can’t escape the MAGA. 🇺🇸
Rubio (1:40 pm ET): Well, as long as he doesn’t start a Twitter war with the turkey, we’ll be fine. Let’s just get back to work.
Waltz (1:45 pm ET): Copy that. Let’s focus on the task at hand and leave the poultry politics out of it.
