According to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, Musk has offered his technical expertise to determine how journalist Jeffrey Goldberg was unintentionally added to the chat, which had discussions about military plans. This development follows Goldberg\u2019s article claiming to have gained access to sensitive conversations involving several prominent figures, including national security adviser Mike Waltz.Following the publication, some officials have denied that classified data was shared, while Musk has been in contact with Waltz to explore the technical aspects of the situation. The White House and Trump administration officials have criticized Goldberg&#8217;s portrayal of the conversations, defending their integrity amid accusations from the journalist and his outlet.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Elon Musk helping to investigate Signal chat leak: White House<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2062303\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/elon-musk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Elon Musk<\/a> is helping determine how journalist Jeffrey Goldberg found himself in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/orthodox-jews-slam-new-amazon-prime-regulations\/\" title=\"Orthodox Jews Slam New Amazon Prime Regulations\">group chat<\/a> with top Trump administration officials where attack plans were discussed, according to the White House.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Elon Musk has offered to put his technical experts on this to figure out how this number was inadvertently added to the chat again to take responsibility and ensure this can never happen again,&rdquo; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/section\/news\/white-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">White House<\/a> press secretary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/karoline-leavitt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Karoline Leavitt<\/a> said on Wednesday.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3360385\/trump-hegseth-signal-scandal-atlantic-jeffrey-goldberg\/\">Trump says Hegseth &#8216;had nothing to do&#8217; with Signal scandal with Atlantic&#8217;s Jeffrey Goldberg<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3359597\/trump-announce-new-tariffs-auto-imports\/\">Trump announces new 25% tariffs on auto imports<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3359543\/white-house-talking-points-trump-atlantic-signal-group-chat\/\">White House talking points: How Trump administration is pushing back on Atlantic&#8217;s Signal group chat reports<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>On Tuesday evening, speaking on Fox News&rsquo;s <em>The Ingraham Angle<\/em>, national security adviser Mike Waltz theorized that Goldberg, the editor in chief of the <em>Atlantic<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/national-security\/3358978\/waltz-suggests-goldberg-hacked-signal-signal-chat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">may have hacked his way<\/a> into the Signal chat.
