Hackers from a foreign nation-state have breached multiple federal agencies, including the Treasury Department and the Commerce Department’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration https://t.co/kbb4mOHO5y
"While President Trump was complaining about the hack that wasn’t — the supposed manipulation of votes in an election he had clearly and fairly lost — he was silent on the fact that Russians were hacking the building next door to him." https://t.co/JrxfXT1s5K
The President already fired the guy who would be leading response out of sheer spite. Now NBC says he wants to fire Chad Wolf, Chris Wray, and maybe Gina Haspel, and you don't point out how outrageous it is to fire the people in charge mid-crisis?
"The magnitude of the attack is hard to overstate. The Russians have had access to a number of sensitive networks for 6 to 9 months. The SVR will have used its access to exploit and gain administrative control over networks it considered priority targets." https://t.co/UyUfoAM8Rj
