() Political operative Roger Stone called out the handling of sensitive national security communications, saying all digital conversations should be presumed potentially insecure.

During a Monday interview on ‘s “CUOMO,” Stone commented on recent reports of a classified communication thread involving a journalist, advising that “secure conversations shouldn’t be had over any app that is available.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters Monday that “nobody was texting war plans” following news breaking that Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, accidentally gained access to a group chat featuring Trump administration officials talking about plans for an attack against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Initially suspected of AI disinformation, the National Security Council later confirmed the messages were real.

Roger Stone: AI fakes will make our politics worse

Stone expressed alarm about artificial intelligence’s potential to manipulate political discourse. He described AI-generated audio as “uncanny” and warned that the technology could “only make our politics worse” by creating seamlessly believable false narratives.

“Voters [are] already uncertain what to believe given the huge amount of information coming to them via the internet as well as cable TV,” Stone said about the growing challenge of distinguishing between authentic and fabricated media.

Roger Stone: False narrative that Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK

Regarding recently released documents about former President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, Stone argued that key information remains deliberately withheld.

He criticized the current document release as “cherry-picked,” saying that crucial evidence contradicts the official narrative of Lee Harvey Oswald as the sole shooter.

Stone pointed to specific inconsistencies, including a paraffin test he claims shows Oswald had no gunpowder residue and testimonies from Parkland Hospital doctors suggesting multiple shooting angles.

He said that important documents, including conversations between CIA Director John McCone and President Lyndon Johnson, remain unavailable.

“There are still documents at the National Security Council, NSA, FBI, CIA, and Department of Defense that were not included,” Stone said.
