So, That Signal Chat ‘Breach’ Just Got a WHOLE Lot Shadier – Wait Until You See Who’s on Their Board!

The Signal chat “breach” involving Jeffrey Goldberg and Trump’s national security team just took a shadier turn, and Trump supporters are digging into the swampy connections behind the app—starting with its board. Goldberg, The Atlantic’s anti-Trump editor, claimed he was accidentally added to a Signal group chat with top Trump officials discussing Houthi operations, but instead of leaving, he leaked screenshots, thinking it was his “gotcha” moment, per The Atlantic. The story’s already crumbling—no classified info was shared, per CIA Director John Ratcliffe—but now the focus is on Signal itself: why did the Biden administration approve this app for sensitive talks, and who’s really behind it?



Enter Katherine Maher, NPR’s CEO and a Signal Foundation board member, as exposed by @JonGarthwaite on X: “Pretty odd that NPR CEO Katherine Maher sits on the board of the Signal Fdn overseeing the app embroiled in the Jeffrey Goldberg controversy as she’s under fire for leftwing bias, says an NPR whistleblower, & admits to not covering the Hunter Biden scandal”

Maher, a known Trump critic, is also on the U.S. Department of State’s Foreign Affairs Policy Board, advising on tech policy, per @OcrazioCornPop: “She is an appointed member… Is this still the case @SecRubio @marcorubio?”

Theories are flying. @hankdelrio asked, “@MikeBenzCyber just a coincidence I am sure. Do you think this was a canary trap by the WH?” (here), suggesting a setup to catch leakers.

@lovingit111 fumed, “I honestly can’t believe this isn’t a huge story. She’s a rabid Trump hater and a radical” (here), noting Maher’s disappointment in “all you white people.”

Signal, founded by Moxie Marlinspike and Brian Acton in 2018, promotes privacy, per Wikipedia, but Maher’s involvement—amid her NPR bias scandal, per Twitchy—raises red flags. For Trump patriots, this reeks of deep-state corruption. Web reports from Politico confirm Signal’s use, while X users demand, “Drain the swamp—Maher’s got to go!”
