White House bizarrely blames Joe Biden in explanation for leak of secret military plans in group chat

WASHINGTON, DC: The White House has released a fiery statement attempting to shift blame for the leaked classified war texts onto former President Joe Biden.
The statement, issued in response to growing scrutiny over a high-level security breach, accuses Democrats and the media of deliberately ignoring Trump’s past military successes while fabricating distractions, Irish Star reported.

“Democrats and their media allies have seemingly forgotten that President Donald J Trump and his National Security team successfully killed terrorists who have targeted US troops and disrupted the most consequential shipping routes in the world,” the statement read, adding, “This is a coordinated effort to distract from the successful actions taken by President Trump and his administration to make America’s enemies pay and keep Americans safe.”
The White House insists that Biden’s policies, particularly his decision to remove the Houthis from the Foreign Terrorist Organizations list, emboldened militant groups in the region.
The statement claims, “The Biden Administration sat back as a band of pirates with precision-guided, Iran-provided weaponry exacted a toll system in one of the most important shipping lanes in the world,” adding, “In fact, since 2023, Houthi terrorists attacked US Navy warships 174 times and attacked commercial shipping vessels 145 times and as a result, 75% of US-flagged shipping has been forced to navigate the southern coast of Africa rather than through the Suez Canal.”
The statement asserted that “Biden’s weakness invited these unacceptable attacks while President Trump put these terrorists on notice.” It also alleged that Biden had delisted the Houthis from the Foreign Terrorist Organizations, while Trump swiftly reinstated them.

President Donald Trump has criticized President Joe Biden's handling of Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, claiming that the current administration’s response has been weak and ineffective.
In a statement, Trump accused Biden of allowing the Iran-backed Houthis to target US Navy ships and disrupt commercial traffic while only responding with "feckless, pinprick attacks."
The president contrasted Biden’s actions with his administration, stating, "The Trump Administration’s actions to hold the Houthis accountable has been a massive success and nothing can distract from that unrelenting action to keep Americans safe."
The White House issued its statement amid controversy surrounding key Trump officials who allegedly shared details about Yemen military plans in a group chat that included The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg.
On Monday, Goldberg disclosed that he had been added to a Signal messaging group, which reportedly featured high-ranking figures such as Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Vice President JD Vance, White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
Goldberg revealed the discussions included “precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing," according to The Independent. He also noted that at 11:44 am just two hours before the initial strikes began in the Middle Eastern nation, he received a message from Hegseth.
White House National Security Council spokesman Brian Hughes addressed the situation in a statement, indicating that the conversation seemed genuine. "At this time, the message thread that was reported appears to be authentic, and we are reviewing how an inadvertent number was added to the chain," he stated.
