The journalists who cover the Pentagon had to choose today between signing a pledge that would make it impossible to do independent journalism and turning in their Pentagon press badges. Almost all of them turned in their badges and left the building.

This step was taken by the only Defense Secretary in American history to accidentally share details of a pending military strike with a journalist on an insecure Signal chat.
