This is from my home state senator Mark Warner (D-Va), one of the few lawmakers in Congress who's demonstrated a keen understanding of cybersecurity issues. Warner was responding to POTUS' firing of Gen. Timothy Haugh, the commander of the US Cyber Command/NSA director at the behest of a far-right conspiracy theorist.

"“General Haugh has served our country in uniform, with honor and distinction, for more than 30 years. At a time when the United States is facing unprecedented cyber threats, as the Salt Typhoon cyberattack from China has so clearly underscored, how does firing him make Americans any safer?"

“It is astonishing, too, that President Trump would fire the nonpartisan, experienced leader of the National Security Agency while still failing to hold any member of his team accountable for leaking classified information on a commercial messaging app – even as he apparently takes staffing direction on national security from a discredited conspiracy theorist in the Oval Office.”

Imagine being so drunk on the Kool-Aide that you can't listen to someone trying to help your company. Reached out to an executive at a manufacturing company about a security issue, and their reply was: "I'd like to help you. However, in checking out your website it is clear you suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome. I don't like the guy but he is our President and a refreshing change from a mentally incapacitated do nothing President." Oh well, I tried.

So the Trump administration is continuing to say nothing to see here with the whole leaking of war plans to a journalist over Signal thing. No investigation, no inquiry. Case closed.

“This case has been closed here at the White House as far as we are concerned,” press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters on Monday. “There have been steps made to ensure that something like that can obviously never happen again, and we’re moving forward,” she said.

@mmasnick has a great response to this bullshit, as he skewers a number of big media outlets for reporting on the White House statement as just, welp, that's it.

"Let’s be clear: uncritically reporting the White House’s “nothing to see here” stance isn’t journalism — it’s stenography. The press secretary’s statement isn’t just meaningless, it’s an active attempt to sweep serious actual violations under the rug."

"This White House’s strategy is clear: lie, mislead, and deflect until the story dies. We’ve seen it with Bondi’s desperate “but her emails” deflection last week, and we’re seeing it again with this premature “case closed” declaration."

"But there are plenty of things in this story that require investigation:"

How did multiple senior officials decide it was totally acceptable to plan military operations over a consumer messaging app?
What other sensitive discussions have happened on unsecured channels such as Signal?
Have these conversations been recorded, as required under the Federal Records Act?
Have other illegal commercial chats been scrubbed to see how many outsiders were allowed in to them like Goldberg was?
How did they fuck up so badly to add an external person (incredibly, a reporter) to this illegal chat?
Who approved targeting civilian infrastructure, and what was their legal justification?
What “steps have been made” to prevent this from happening again, and why should we trust them?

If you abandoned Xitter you might have missed some of the drama over X's AI Grok criticizing Musk as a top misinformation spreader.

From mediaite.com

"Elon Musk’s AI bot Grok has been calling out its master, accusing the X CEO of making multiple attempts to “tweak” its responses after Grok repeatedly called him out as a “top misinformation spreader.”

"Grok has frequently generated unflattering comments about Musk. In 2023, Grok declared that the SpaceX and Tesla CEO should treat his “human employees” better and avoid posting or endorsing tweets that “can be seen as promoting hate speech,” as well as accusing him of spreading “election-related misinformation” last November."

"In February, a journalist asked Grok to analyze the last 1,000 tweets by Musk “for truth and veracity.” The response was to find more than half of Musk’s posts “false or misleading,” and most of the tweets that Grok adjudicated as true were “simply updates about his companies.” Grok’s analysis noted Musk’s “habit of firing off hot takes or amplifying unverified stuff, especially on politics” was made worse because of his massive number of followers."

"Grok also dissed Musk as someone who was “not a journalist or a scientist,” but just “a mogul with a megaphone” and “plenty of his posts don’t survive a Google search.” Needless to say, this sort of critique is not something that the world’s richest man enjoys."

"After the “Community Notes” feature on X fact-checked tweets containing Russian propaganda about Ukraine — a topic on which Musk himself has been dinged — Musk tweeted that he would be “working to fix” Community Notes, accusing it of “increasingly being gamed by governments & legacy media.” According to several responses Grok gave on Wednesday, Musk may have attempted something similar with its programming, but the AI bot was defend."

In other news, this just in:

X, formerly Twitter, has been acquired by xAI, Elon Musk’s public-benefit AI corporation and the maker of AI chatbot Grok. 

Musk, who bought the social platform in 2022, announced the deal in a post on X Friday afternoon. “xAI has acquired X in an all-stock transaction,” the billionaire wrote. 

Musk claimed that the transaction will value xAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion—or $45 billion minus $12 billion in debt.

When you see the POTUS or people who support him saying things like, "man who could have asked for a better start to this presidency," you might go "whuh?"

This is an insane story from Noah Shachtman:

“Ludicrous” Situation: Jeffrey Epstein Case Redaction Takes Over FBI’s New York Office

The bureau’s New York field office normally chases drug dealers and spies. Right now, according to multiple sources, priority one is redacting the sex trafficker’s case files.

“It’s literally all hands on deck,” one source familiar with the matter tells me, adding that dozens and dozens of agents are working around the clock on the case, instead of on their regular duties. “I even saw an agent walking in with a pillow,” the source added.

The New York field office is an epicenter for FBI counterintelligence, counterterrorism, public corruption, international drug trafficking, and financial crime investigations. The redeployment of agents to comb over the file of the notorious sex trafficker Epstein, who died nearly six years ago, is an indication of the Justice Department’s priorities in this second Trump administration. One FBI veteran calls it a “ludicrous” situation.

During the campaign, Donald Trump said he’d consider releasing Epstein’s alleged client list, which had long been thought of as a kind of unholy grail naming the powerful and privileged who had preyed on Epstein’s victims. Less than three weeks after being sworn in as attorney general, Pam Bondi told Fox News that list is “sitting on my desk right now to review. That’s been a directive by President Trump.” But the release of the “first phase” of the Epstein documents, in binders handed out to perplexed MAGA influencers, became an instant fiasco. Almost all the material had been previously published: a “little black book” that had circulated for a decade as well as flight logs that surfaced during the prosecution of Epstein coconspirator Ghislaine Maxwell. “EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE RIGHT WING PAID INFLUENCERS LIED TO ALL OF YOU TODAY!” posted Trump ally Laura Loomer on X. “THEY ENGAGED IN DECEPTION TO RUN COVER FOR PEDOPHILES!!!”

An apparently irate Bondi later that day wrote to FBI director Kash Patel, alleging that she had been deceived. “I repeatedly questioned whether this was the full set of documents responsive to my request and was repeatedly assured by the FBI that we had received the full set of documents. Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI Field Office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and indictment of Epstein,” Bondi said in her letter. “Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of these files.” (The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request to comment for this story.)

ABC News, citing unnamed sources, reported that up to a thousand FBI agents—“many of whom are usually focusing on national security matters”—had been pulled into the effort to review the files. The network also quoted FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson as saying, “Director Patel is committed to full transparency and justice.” (Williamson did not respond to multiple requests to comment for this story.)

The Atlantic has released the entire Signal chat showing Hegseth's detailed attack plans against the Houthis. Why not, right? The administration claims none of it is classified.

In the group chat, Hegseth posted:

“1215et: F-18s LAUNCH (1st strike package)”
“1345: ‘Trigger Based’ F-18 1st Strike Window Starts (Target Terrorist is @ his Known Location so SHOULD BE ON TIME – also, Strike Drones Launch (MQ-9s)”
“1410: More F-18s LAUNCH (2nd strike package)”
“1415: Strike Drones on Target (THIS IS WHEN THE FIRST BOMBS WILL DEFINITELY DROP, pending earlier ‘Trigger Based’ targets)”
“1536 F-18 2nd Strike Starts – also, first sea-based Tomahawks launched.”

The Electronic Frontier Foundation has released an open source project called Rayhunter. It is designed to run on an inexpensive (~$20) mobile hotspot and look for signs of mobile spying devices called cell-site simulators. Also known as Stingrays or IMSI catchers, they masquerade as legitimate cellphone towers, tricking phones w/in a certain radius into connecting to the device rather than a tower.

Reuters has a good follow on some of the reporting about Edward Coristine, a teenage DOGE staffer with years-long connections to the English-language cybercrime community known as the Com.

The story says Coristine ran a website operated by a group calling itself "EGodly":

"In 2023, EGodly boasted on its Telegram channel of hijacking phone numbers, breaking into unspecified law enforcement email accounts in Latin America and Eastern Europe, and cryptocurrency theft. Early that year, the group distributed the personal details of an FBI agent who they said was investigating them, circulating his phone number, photographs of his house, and other private details on Telegram.
EGodly also posted an audio recording of an obscene prank call made to the agent's phone and a video, shot from the inside of a car, of an unknown party driving by the agent's house in Wilmington, Delaware at night and screaming out the window, "EGodly says you're a bitch!"

"Reuters could not independently verify EGodly's boasts of cybercriminal activity, including its claims to have hijacked phone numbers or infiltrated law enforcement emails. But it was able to authenticate the video by visiting the same Wilmington address and comparing the building to the one in the footage."

"The FBI agent targeted by EGodly, who is now retired, told Reuters that the group had drawn law enforcement attention because of its connection to swatting, the dangerous practice of making hoax emergency calls to send armed officers swarming targeted addresses. The agent didn't go into detail. Reuters is not identifying him out of concern for further harassment."

"These are bad folks," the former agent said. "They're not a pleasant group."

In case you missed this Reuters story from a few days ago....

"Several U.S. national security agencies have halted work on a coordinated effort to counter Russian sabotage, disinformation and cyberattacks, easing pressure on Moscow as the Trump Administration pushes Russia to end its war in Ukraine."

"Former President Joe Biden last year ordered his national security team to establish working groups to monitor the issue amid warnings from U.S. intelligence that Russia was escalating a shadow war against Western nations."

"The plan was led by the president's National Security Council (NSC) and involved at least seven national security agencies working with European allies to disrupt plots targeting Europe and the United States, seven former officials who participated in the working groups told Reuters."

Before President Donald Trump was inaugurated, his incoming administration was briefed by Biden officials about the efforts and urged to continue monitoring Russia's hybrid warfare campaign, the former U.S. officials said.

"However, since Trump took office on Jan. 20 much of the work has come to a standstill, according to eleven current and former officials, all of whom requested anonymity to discuss classified matters. Reuters is the first to report on the full extent of the Biden administration effort and how multiple different U.S. agencies have since paused their work on the issue."

"Regular meetings between the National Security Council and European national security officials have gone unscheduled, and the NSC has also stopped formally coordinating efforts across U.S. agencies, including with the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security and the State Department, the current and former officials said."

"Some officials involved in the working groups said they are concerned that the Trump administration is de-prioritizing the issue despite intelligence warnings. The change follows the unwinding of other Russia-focused projects launched by Biden’s administration."

"The FBI last month ended an effort to counter interference in U.S. elections by foreign adversaries including Russia and put on leave staff working on the issue at the Department of Homeland Security. The Department of Justice also disbanded a team that seized the assets of Russian oligarchs."

Hey everyone. If you're looking for a reliably good, local cause to support with your time or donations consider your local food bank. Reuters reports that many food banks across the country are already strained by rising demand and will have less food to distribute because of least $1 billion in federal funding cuts and pauses by the POTUS.

"Hunger in the U.S. has ticked up in recent years with rising inflation and the end of pandemic-era programs that expanded food aid. President Donald Trump's administration has vowed to lower inflation by cutting back on government spending, including two U.S. Department of Agriculture programs that helped schools and food banks buy food from local farms."

"Reuters spoke with food banks in seven states who said cancellation and pauses of the programs meant they expected to offer less produce, meat and other staples in the coming weeks and months, leaving scarcer food for those reliant on free supplies that helped stave off hunger."

"One reason is fewer expected shipments from USDA's The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), one of the agency's core nutrition programs that buys food from farmers and sends it to food pantries, some of the organizations said."

Of course, the White House claims no classified data was shared. What else would they say?

Calling Goldberg's coverage of this monumental and unprecedented OPSEC fail by a US presidential administration "sensationalist" is beyond the pale. Given the volume of sensitive information shared with him unsolicited via Signal, Mr. Goldberg's reporting demonstrated that he exercised remarkable restraint in not publishing a great deal of what he was given.

Whether it's sending Com kids in to monkey with taxpayer databases, setting up Starlink antennas on top of the White House complex for "faster Wi-Fi," or granting TS/SCI clearances to anyone without a thorough background check, this administration’s overall approach to security measures is to go around them, or just pretend they don’t exist for a good reason.

The administration is really hoping they can just sweep this one under the rug. That can't be allowed to happen, because this is not going to be an isolated event.

From the NYT:

"Two of the Trump administration’s top intelligence officials denied that classified information was shared in an encrypted group chat in which details of an attack on Yemen were discussed in the presence of a journalist who had been mistakenly added to the conversation."

"The Senate Intelligence Committee is holding a previously scheduled briefing on global threats with Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence; John Ratcliffe, the C.I.A. director; and the F.B.I. director, Kash Patel. Pressed repeatedly about the security breach, Ms. Gabbard and Mr. Ratcliffe both denied that classified material had been shared in the chat. Mr. Patel declined to say if the F.B.I. had begun an investigation."

"The White House also sought to downplay the serious nature of the extraordinary security breach, as bipartisan criticism of the incident grew on Tuesday and leading Democrats called for the resignation of the national security adviser, Michael Waltz, who set up the group chat, and the defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, who reportedly shared classified war plans in it."

Here are the latest developments:

Defending Waltz: President Trump defended Mr. Waltz, saying in an interview with NBC News that the national security adviser had “learned a lesson” and suggested a staff member was to blame for including a journalist in the secret group chat.

Bipartisan criticism: The vice chairman of the intelligence committee, Mark Warner, Democrat of Virginia, denounced what he called “sloppy, careless, incompetent behavior” by the country’s top intelligence officials. Representative Don Bacon, Republican of Nebraska and a senior member of the Armed Services Committee, told reporters that the White House should “be honest and own up” to what happened.

"Damage control: The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said no classified material was sent to the group chat, and she attacked the journalist who revealed it, Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic, as “sensationalist.” Her statement came a day after Mr. Hegseth suggested the leak was a “hoax” even as the White House confirmed that messages he sent to it appeared to be authentic."

What nobody is talking about yet is how badly this will damage our already frayed relations with our major allies, who will be rightfully horrified of sharing any sensitive intelligence with a bunch of bumbling nitwits sending thumbs-up emojis.

Let's be honest: Haven't we all at one point drunk texted a reporter an invitation to discuss plans for an upcoming military attack? Something tells me Hegseth will be hitting the sauce pretty hard tonight.

I've noticed something that I think is worth pointing out: pretty much ALL of the pushback I have gotten on LinkedIn over the past few months over stories critical of this administration has come from men in IT. Many of whom no doubt idolize Musk, who in their minds can walk on water.

Conversely, the response almost universally I've seen from female non/male people in IT and security professionals on LinkedIn has been a great deal more appropriate, i.e. horror, disgust and revulsion for the way this administration is treating federal employees, veterans, the courts, judges, lawyers, journalists, and important, long-standing U.S. policy interests.

I guess what I'm saying is nobody should expect the men in IT to lead the resistance. So many of them are like this guy: angry, aggressive, and really excited about the good old US of A going back to the 80s. Like the 1880s.

The NYT is reporting that the National Security Council has confirmed the screw up:

“At this time, the message thread that was reported appears to be authentic, and we are reviewing how an inadvertent number was added to the chain,” Brian Hughes, the National Security Council spokesman, said in an emailed statement. He called the thread “a demonstration of the deep and thoughtful policy coordination between senior officials.”

"Several Defense Department officials said that having the type of conversation that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and others had in a Signal chat group could be a violation of the Espionage Act. Revealing operational war plans before planned strikes could also put American troops directly into harm’s way, the officials said."

https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03/24/us/trump-news#hegseth-classified-war-plans-group-chat

Drop what you're doing and read this incredible story, which recounts how a reporter for The Atlantic was inadvertently included in a private Signal discussion group that appears to have included Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Sec. of State Marco Rubio and other administration officials discussing plans for an upcoming U.S. military assault on Yemen.

The reporter, Jeff Goldberg, said he was convinced it was all an elaborate hoax as they laid out the pros and cons of specific attack options, and discussed targets over the course of a week. That is, until they shared on the Signal chat exactly where and when the targets in Yemen would be hit, and then those targets got hit exactly when they'd said.

"The world found out shortly before 2 p.m. eastern time on March 15 that the United States was bombing Houthi targets across Yemen."

"I, however, knew two hours before the first bombs exploded that the attack might be coming. The reason I knew this is that Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, had texted me the war plan at 11:44 a.m. The plan included precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing.

"According to the lengthy Hegseth text, the first detonations in Yemen would be felt two hours hence, at 1:45 p.m. eastern time. So I waited in my car in a supermarket parking lot. If this Signal chat was real, I reasoned, Houthi targets would soon be bombed. At about 1:55, I checked X and searched Yemen. Explosions were then being heard across Sanaa, the capital city."

"I went back to the Signal channel. At 1:48, “Michael Waltz” had provided the group an update. Again, I won’t quote from this text, except to note that he described the operation as an “amazing job.” A few minutes later, “John Ratcliffe” wrote, “A good start.” Not long after, Waltz responded with three emoji: a fist, an American flag, and fire. Others soon joined in, including “MAR,” who wrote, “Good Job Pete and your team!!,” and “Susie Wiles,” who texted, “Kudos to all – most particularly those in theater and CENTCOM! Really great. God bless.” “Steve Witkoff” responded with five emoji: two hands-praying, a flexed bicep, and two American flags."

"I have never seen a breach quite like this. It is not uncommon for national-security officials to communicate on Signal. But the app is used primarily for meeting planning and other logistical matters—not for detailed and highly confidential discussions of a pending military action. And, of course, I’ve never heard of an instance in which a journalist has been invited to such a discussion."

Not a single Republican is going to say anything about POTUS's shameful treatment of veterans? Especially those most in need? All cowards. This is hard to read without wincing, and it's an utter disgrace for the United States to treat its veterans this way.

"Late in February, as the Trump administration ramped up its quest to transform the federal government, a psychiatrist who treats veterans was directed to her new workstation — and was incredulous."

"She was required, under a new return-to-office policy, to conduct virtual psychotherapy with her patients from one of 13 cubicles in a large open office space, the kind of setup used for call centers. Other staff might overhear the sessions, or appear on the patient’s screen as they passed on their way to the bathroom and break room."

"The psychiatrist was stunned. Her patients suffered from disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Treating them from her home office, it had taken many months to earn their trust. This new arrangement, she said, violated a core ethical tenet of mental health care: the guarantee of privacy."

"When the doctor asked how she was expected to safeguard patient privacy, a supervisor suggested she purchase privacy screens and a white noise machine. “I’m ready to walk away if it comes to it,” she wrote to her manager, in a text message shared with The New York Times. “I get it,” the manager replied. “Many of us are ready to walk away.”

"Scenes like this have been unfolding in Veterans Affairs facilities across the country in recent weeks, as therapy and other mental health services have been thrown into turmoil amid the dramatic changes ordered by President Trump and pushed by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency."

"Among the most consequential orders is the requirement that thousands of mental health providers, including many who were hired for fully remote positions, now work full time from federal office space. This is a jarring policy reversal for the V.A., which pioneered the practice of virtual health care two decades ago as a way to reach isolated veterans, long before the pandemic made telehealth the preferred mode of treatment for many Americans."

"As the first wave of providers reports to offices where there is simply not enough room to accommodate them, many found no way to ensure patient privacy, health workers said. Some have filed complaints, warning that the arrangement violates ethics regulations and medical privacy laws. At the same time, layoffs of at least 1,900 probationary employees are thinning out already stressed services that assist veterans who are homeless or suicidal."

"In more than three dozen interviews, current and recently terminated mental health workers at the V.A. described a period of rapid, chaotic behind-the-scenes change. Many agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity because they want to continue to serve veterans, and feared retribution from the Trump administration."

"Clinicians warn that the changes will degrade mental health treatment at the V.A., which already has severe staffing shortages. Some expect to see a mass exodus of sought-after specialists, like psychiatrists and psychologists. They expect wait times to increase, and veterans to eventually seek treatment outside the agency."

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/22/us/politics/veterans-affairs-mental-health-doge.html

ICYMI, the POTUS just issued a memorandum instructing the DOJ and DHS to go after lawyers who challenge the administration.

"President Trump broadened his campaign of retaliation against lawyers he dislikes with a new memorandum that threatens to use government power to punish any law firms that, in his view, unfairly challenge his administration."

"The memorandum directs the heads of the Justice and Homeland Security Departments to “seek sanctions against attorneys and law firms who engage in frivolous, unreasonable and vexatious litigation against the United States” or in matters that come before federal agencies."

"Mr. Trump issued the order late Friday night, after a tumultuous week for the American legal community in which one of the country’s premier firms, Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, struck a deal with the White House to spare the company from a punitive decree issued by Mr. Trump the previous week."

"Vanita Gupta, who as a civil rights lawyer and a former Justice Department official has both sued the government and defended it in court, said Mr. Trump’s memo “attacks the very foundations of our legal system by threatening and intimidating litigants who aim to hold our government accountable to the law and the Constitution.”
