Former National Security Adviser John Bolton criticized senior Trump administration officials for using the encrypted messaging app Signal to discuss sensitive U.S. government matters. In a CNN interview, he expressed concern over the use of a consumer app for serious discussions about military actions and foreign policy, highlighting a significant breach of protocol. This criticism follows a report in The Atlantic which revealed that top officials, including Vice President J.D. Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, used Signal to talk about military operations in Yemen. The use of such non-governmental communication methods has raised serious national security and cybersecurity issues, sparking backlash from lawmakers and calls for stricter adherence to secure communication standards in government operations.
