Defense secretary Pete Hegseth suggests that disgruntled former employees who were recently fired were responsible for leaking the information about his use of Signal group chats.
But he doesn't deny his accused misbehavior.
@mimarek Does it really matter who ratted him out? He did it.

There may be appropriate legal penalties for the leakers, although "he used a Signal chat" does not appear to be legitimate classified information.
But as you say, he did it and has not actually denied it.
@AlliFlowers
He is claiming they leaked classified information, but in reality, they leaked that HE was leaking classified information.
