Hyde-Smith casts doubt on validity of Signal chat snafu as Wicker calls for investigation
SUMMARY: The publication of an article by Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic, claiming he was inadvertently added to a secure Signal group chat discussing military plans against Houthi terrorists, has sparked controversy in Washington. While officials confirm the mistake, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth denied that any war plans were shared. The Atlantic subsequently released chat messages detailing aircraft types and airstrike timings. President Trump initially denied any classified information was disclosed, but later stated he was unsure. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith questioned how Goldberg acquired the information, suggesting possible unethical methods. A bipartisan call for an investigation into the matter is underway.

Mississippi lawmakers fail to beat budget deadlines, making special session a possibility
SUMMARY: Mississippi lawmakers are struggling to finalize a budget for the state government after missing deadlines for funding that begins July 1, 2025. While the Senate convened for negotiations over the weekend, House Speaker Jason White allowed House members to leave, advocating for early budget discussions to ensure transparency and thorough review. Senate leaders criticized this decision, claiming it jeopardizes state services and accusing the House of delaying negotiations, as they sought agreement on around 70 budget-related bills. The failure to agree has led to two funding options: extending the current session or calling a costly special session.
