Tulsi Gabbard versucht Signalgate auf Biden zu beschuldigen

Why are they all stupid?

This administration is a joke. 

Didn’t Hegseth install it on his own computer? Biden probably doesn’t know much about Signal or computers in general, so how would this be his fault? Biden also hasn’t been president since January and we’re heading into May already. At some point blaming the guy that was president over three months ago just makes you look dumb.

they would argue that the sun does NOT rise in the east, if Biden said it did.

The clusterfucks that are attempting to run the country are so incompetent that even their attempts to deflect blame are embarrassing.

I still have one question. Did she ever get the coat made out of Dalmatian skins or not?

Huh?

Is she mentally ill?

That was a rhetorical question.

„as long as the conversations are not classified‘

Signal is a step up from plain email, but Gmail’s secure mode is just as good. The fact that private sector encrypted information services exist and are convenient is not relevant.

1. THE CONVERSATIONS THEY HAD WERE CLASSIFIED.
2. SHE WAS A PARTICIPANT AS THE DIRECTOR OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE. Her job is literally to set and enforce policy on classified information.
3. The information they passed around was classic TOP SECRET, SCI stuff. Information leaks at this level are BY DEFINITION capable of causing grave damage to the national security of the USA.
4. SHE IS AN ACCOMPLICE TO SERIOUS CRIMES. Who gives AF what she says? I mean, aside from the fact that she still has her job when she should have been marched out of the building to the curb within hours.
5. This may be unrelated to her hearing, but Hegseth set up a chat room with uncleared people with absolutely no need to know and gave them time-sensitive TS/SCI updates. He should have been frog marched to jail in handcuffs.

On a more human note, much of that damage would be loss of military lives. Hegseth, Gabbard, and a few others are former military. If you know the culture you know how unforgivable that is.

It’s infinitely worse because they are announcing that the security policy of this administration does think their lives are important, and is not seriously concerned with mission success. The new policy is maximal impact on social media. WTF? I’ve been closely associated with the DOD/IC world for almost half a century. I have never seen ANYONE in that world stuck on appearances.

These are not serious people.

Holy fuck where do these assholes get their information from?

So…Biden made you an idiot?

I heard congresspeople on the BBC parroting similar shit when it happened. The gist of the argument made was “there were concerns about the security of the White House communications even using a secure skiff and Biden refused to address it so republicans feel like they need to take matters into their own hands”

to which the interviewer said “So you decided that using unsecured devices on unsecured networks using a third party application that is decidedly hackable was a better option than secure lines that some people have a *feeling* might not be secure?”

And what really burns me up about it is that that woman sat there and deadpan said “yep” despite having her argument completely eviscerated.

Seriously if you want a good barometer of how we are doing as a country, listen to the BBC overnight on your public radio station. The anchors sound more incredulous about US politics as time goes on.
