President Donald Trump continues to support Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth amid calls from some Democrats for his resignation due to a leaked Signal chat that contained details about a military operation in Yemen.3

The president addressed the issue following Hegseth’s inadvertent sharing of information regarding the strike with administration officials in a Signal chat that mistakenly included Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. Goldberg subsequently published the complete messages on Wednesday morning.
