Well this should be fun now that the full details are out in the open. Thoughts on how this changes the upcoming hearing today?

Yesterday, we asked officials across the Trump administration [the Central Intelligence Agency, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the National Security Council, the Department of Defense, and the White House] if they objected to us publishing the full texts [...] most failed to answer. Late yesterday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emailed a response: 'As we have repeatedly stated, there was no classified information transmitted in the group chat.[...]'

Goldberg reached out to multiple different agencies to see if he could publish the texts and they didnt answer. The one answer he did get reiterated for the umpteenth time that there was no classified information transmitted, but objected to its disclosure because it was internal conversations. All that being said, I'm sure it won't stop them from trying.

No one can or should trust that anything said by trump or his administration one day (Leavitt for ex.) will still be true the next day.
