Scott Jennings Torches Dem Calling For Firings Over Signalgate… She Squirms When Hit With Facts

Posted • March 29, 2025: CNN continues to try to make hay out of "Signal-gate." Apparently, the most egregious mistake ever made by a Secretary of Defense was having an advisor accidentally add a left-wing journalist to a fairly surface-level encrypted discussion. Everything else in America's history has been small potatoes. Truly, it gets no worse than this. Obviously, I'm being sarcastic, but that is how the press and Democrats are treating this story, with the latest iteration being that American lives were "put at risk." Is that true, though?

So saying Americans were "put at risk" is a political talking point not based in reality.

It's the kind of thing one says to sensationalize a story for political purposes, which is exactly what happened on CNN on Friday evening. Facing off against Scott Jennings (because who else?), Lulu Garcia-Navarro trotted out the aforementioned claim only to be left squirming when faced with a logically consistent rebuttal. 🚨 Scott Jennings torches Dem panelist calling for firings over Signalgate. You have to love the implication there from Garcia-Navarro that having information not leak prior to a successful attack on terrorists is somehow inherently more serious and more worthy of resignation than getting 13 American service members murdered and mistakenly vaporizing seven children. Talk about being insultingly out of touch. Heck, one might even call it ghoulish. (…)
