The leaked Signal conversation among cabinet members reveals a heated debate over media freedom and bias, sparked by a controversial incident on ‘60 Minutes’ involving McEnany. The discussion also emphasizes the need for a unified approach to media relations to inform the President effectively.
Waltz (03:12 pm ET): Gentlemen, Gabbard, we need to discuss the recent ‘60 minutes’ incident involving McEnany.
Rubio (03:13 pm ET): I couldn’t believe what I was watching. Since when do we demand journalists to be silenced?
Hegseth (03:15 pm ET): 🤷♂️ Isn’t that something we expect from dictators? Silencing opposition?
Gabbard (03:17 pm ET): 🇷🇺 I mean, we can’t deny that the media can be incredibly biased. ☕
Vance (03:21 pm ET): That may be true, but open discourse is important to democracy. It’s what separates us from totalitarian regimes.
Miller (03:23 pm ET): 🤬 The liberal media has too much freedom in my opinion.
Bessent (03:24 pm ET): Miller, freedom of speech should never be labelled as too much freedom.
Ratcliffe (03:25 pm ET): Let’s not forget that our focus should be on informing POTUS 🏛️. We need a strong united voice when it comes to media relations.
Wiles (03:27 pm ET): Agreed. But I swear, if one more journalist tries to roast my favorite burger joint, I’ll be tempted to pull a Kayleigh myself. 🍔
Witkoff (03:30 pm ET): Maybe we should stick to discussing national security instead of fast food, yes? 🌭
Kent (03:32 pm ET): I believe we can multitask. Now, about that McEnany incident…
Gabbard (03:35 pm ET): I think Rubio and I could use a burger right now. What do you say, Marco?
Rubio (03:37 pm ET): 😄 Sure, as long as it’s not from Wiles’ favorite joint.
Hegseth (03:39 pm ET): Anyway, back to the topic at hand. We need a united front, as some of you have said. How we deal with the media reflects on our administration.
Vance (03:42 pm ET): Right, and this can’t be another one of Trump’s knock em’ down episodes. We need a sophisticated approach.
Miller (03:44 pm ET): I just hope it doesn’t come in the middle of a rerun of my favorite show, “Two and a Half Men”. 📺
Steve Witkoff (03:45 pm ET): 😆 Hopefully it won’t, Miller. Now, back to the topic…
Rubio (03:47 pm ET): Alright, let’s get a game plan together. Effective communication with the media is key.
