Thu Mar 27 02:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Nadler Calls for Resignations and Prosecution Following Leaked War Plan Messages
**Washington, D.C.** – Congressman Jerry Nadler (D-NY) today escalated his calls for accountability within the Trump administration following the release of new text messages detailing the sharing of confidential war plans via an unsecured communication platform. Nadler alleges the messages directly contradict testimony given by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe before the Senate Intelligence Committee yesterday.
“The latest text messages confirm that Director Gabbard and Director Ratcliffe lied under oath,” Nadler stated in a press release. He asserts that the evidence, including the initial reports and the newly released texts, demonstrates a pattern of deception surrounding Secretary Hegseth’s sharing of sensitive war plans through an unsecured Signal chat.
Nadler accused the Trump administration of a disregard for security protocols and suggested that cabinet members and senior officials believe themselves above the law. He called for the resignation of Secretary Hegseth and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, as well as every member of the Signal chat group involved in the leak. Further, he demanded the prosecution of Gabbard and Ratcliffe for perjury.
“Any other military officer would face dismissal and a court-martial for such negligence,” Nadler emphasized. He reiterated his commitment to holding the Trump administration accountable for what he terms a serious breach of national security. The congressman’s statement follows ongoing controversy surrounding the handling of classified information within the administration.
