Signal chat leak: Trump to ask Hegseth for classification review | LiveNOW from FOX

The Atlantic has released excerpts of the Signal group chat that top U.S. security officials used to discuss plans for the military to attack the Houthis in Yemen – and inadvertently included a The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief on the thread.

The chat group included 18 members, including Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. The group, called "Houthi PC Small Group," likely for Houthi "principals committee" — was comprised of Trump’s senior-most advisers on national security, including Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and CIA Director John Ratcliffe. The National Security Council said the text chain "appears to be authentic."

President Donald Trump says he plans to ask Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to review whether the contents of the Signal chat should have been classified. Speaking from the Oval Office Wednesday, Trump said "Sure. I'll ask him... I'd certainly ask him to take a look at it."

National security analyst Hal Kempfer joins LiveNOW's Andrew Craft to discuss.
