Jessica Tarlov called out the Trump administration’s “incompetence” after one official accidentally added The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief to a war strike group chat.

Fox News’ Jessica Tarlov on Monday slammed the Trump administration for being “obviously incredibly reckless” as she weighed in on Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, being inadvertently added to a group chat of officials discussing war strikes in Yemen.

“I don’t ever want to hear ‘but her emails’ again,” said Tarlov, referring to Republican outrage over former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while secretary of state. (After much debate and multiple investigations, the State Department found no deliberate mishandling of classified information.)

Goldberg reported that Trump administration national security adviser Michael Waltz added him to an 18-person group chat, one that saw Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth text officials on “precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing” on the U.S. strikes on Yemen two hours before they occurred on March 15.

Democrats were appalled by the news that top officials were discussing the strikes along with highly sensitive war plans over a third-party app. Clinton, in response to Goldberg’s report, sharply replied, ”👀 You have got to be kidding me.”

Hegseth briefly told reporters Monday that “nobody was texting war plans.”

Tarlov, as part of a discussion on “The Five” about the state of the Democratic Party, gave a shoutout to longtime Democratic strategist James Carville for urging the party to “run out the clock” and see what happens on President Donald Trump’s watch.

She turned to the president’s “tanking” favorability ratings on his handling of the economy and cost of living, adding that Americans are seeing the administration’s “incompetence and recklessness on a scale unimaginable.”

“We’re only a couple months into this administration and when Carville says, ‘Let’s see what they do,’ you get stuff like this,” she said of Goldberg’s report.

“It makes you happy,” replied co-host Greg Gutfeld.

“No, but it does confirm when people said, ‘Folks were getting these jobs that didn’t deserve them,’ that that’s probably the case and I’m sure —,” Tarlov said.

“They make a mistake, and you’re happy,” Gutfeld shot back.

“This is a mistake?” Tarlov said.
