I'm finding it hard to constrain my vocabulary in this situation.
Let's just say my contempt for this utter clown is NP, and my disappointment that critical government systems lack the security required to stop this nonsense is almost as large.
- TheNewsIsHere 2y agoThe BFS systems do have the proper security according to a very recently filed affidavit from a career IT manager with direct knowledge of those systems. There was reporting earlier that Marko Elez had been using personal devices to connect to Treasury systems. In testimony the manager wrote that his access was exclusively by means of a special issue BFS laptop with DLP software and “enhanced” monitoring. But he also noted that Elez was given far broader access than even auditors were typically granted. And that testimony didn’t ameliorate other concerns. And of course that’s just BFS. I’m not at all disagreeing with you though. The lack of adults in the room, the apparent lack of proper background checking, the fact that the kids DOGE has running around have no real experience, it’s all alarming. And no one seems interested in talking about it. The legal world is on fire right now. The lawyers that keep the country running in accordance with the laws are sounding the alarm and no one seems interested in answering and it’s $&)@-/; embarrassing as a country.
