Pete HegsethThe acting inspector general for the Department of Defense said Thursday that he’s opened an investigation into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s use of messaging app Signal to discuss sensitive military operations.

The action comes a week after a reporter for The Atlantic disclosed that he’d been inadvertently added to a group chat with Trump administration officials where they discussed sensitive details about an upcoming bombing campaign in Yemen

Hegseth was notified via a memorandum from acting Inspector General Steven A. Stebbins, who said he was following through on a request from the chairman and ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

“The objective of this evaluation is to determine the extent to which the Secretary of Defense and other DoD personnel complied with DoD policies and procedures for the use of a commercial messaging application for official business.”

Stebbins said his office will also review whether the DoD’s use of the app complies with classification and records retention requirements.
