Trump dismisses Signal security failure as ‘the only glitch in two months’
Trump dismisses Signal security failure as ‘the only glitch in two months’
Well Obama didn't have these glitches in 8 years, and Biden didn't have these glitches for a combined 12 years, so if your level of success is only two months, you're a fucking failure
Our one glitch is from signal
Well, and the NRC
Our two glitches are from signal and laying off people at the NRC
Oh, there was also the misleading DOGE numbers
Three! Our three glitches were signal, the NRC, and misleading DOGE numbers.
And DOGE having a completely unprotected database of course.
Oh, dash it all.
Nobody expects the Trumpian Inquisition!
Ackshully we're all braced for it
I really hope our saving grace is wannabe technocrats not understanding how technology works
It's been only two months. The fuck has concentration camps in El Salvador, sucked putlers lepra dick twice a day, cratered the stock market, fucked up NATO, started a trade war with the civilized world, tried to extort Ukraine, threatened invasions of Canada, Mexico, Denmark, Venezuela.
And this is the only fuckup
Guys, where is your second ammendment? You let thousands of school kids die every year, for what?
"Let" is a strong word.
I mean what do you expect people to do? Honestly? If you use guns then the response will be massively violent. Have you seen how police here act during peaceful protests? The reality is a lot of people are just trying to survive and stay alive.
Don't forget Panama! Trump has actually made me quite a bit of money threatening to invade other countries, so I'm keen on keeping track of all of them. If you're curious how, it's simple. It exploits a zero day vulnerability of sports betting markets. You see it all started with the NHL 4 Nations tournament. If the United States is competing in an elimination game against one of the aforementioned countries, bet against them. It doesn't matter how much of a long shot they are, the opponent always finds a way to win. It happened in the 4 Nations final against Canada, the Concacaf Nations League semifinal against Panama, and the 3rd place match in the CNL to Canada again.
The stock market didn't crater, it only dipped a bit. Luckily it happened just before the end of the British financial year, so I maxed out investment allowances for myself and my wife and soon (relatively) we will have sweet juicy profits! That's the only thing I can't complain about Trump.
lol. This was the only glitch?
Remember when your dumb asses fired the people who maintain the nuclear stock pile?
(Who wants to go next?)
lol. This was the only glitch?
Remember when your dumb asses fired the people who maintain the nuclear stock pile?
That was all intentional. Everything he's done to fuck up the US, the economy, and our relationship with our allies has all gone according to plan, because he's an enemy to the United States and a domestic threat to our Constitution.
Not physically being in a scif using SIPRnet is not a fucking glitch you fucking clown.
Well, ish... SCIFs are used for the collection, dissemination, and storage of Top Secret/SCI material. Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) is only cleared for up to secret level material. There are higher classification networks they should have been using instead.
"Glitch"
Trying to make it sound like a technical failure, not a massive show of incompetence and a huge security lapse by people who are unqualified for their jobs and shouldn't have been communicating through those channels in the first place.
And "It's the first time we've really fucked up inexcusably in a whole two months" doesn't really work as a defense. Nor is it true.
"We're sorry you found out" is basically what he's saying.
Trying to make it seem that they're not actively breaking all the laws around record keeping for government business.
There's no excuse for this.
I am not even sure if he knows what a glitch is on a technical level btw.
It is however his very very first admittance of a failure from his administration, so.... yay? I see progress! /s
Shouldn't that read "it's been only two months until this happened"?
Good luck America, yer’ fucked.
We kill racists and fascists! In fact Europe had to have us come kill theirs too! We had to practice on our own, that's why we're good at it, and why we will always have to do it again every so often.
It takes everything they've got to keep the little bit of control on the country they think they have. All it takes for them to lose it, is 3.5% of us to step up. That's why you can't find any reporting on the protests and town halls here. We're past critical mass, it just needs to hit home. People are organizing. Its coming.
I have only one objection to the otherwise very welcome criticism of the incompetence and deliberate misconduct, as well as the highly entertaining memes:
It's been all too distracting from the question of why we were even bombing Yemen in the first place.
If I understand correctly (full disclosure, I may not) there are a group of politically motivated people that are using Yemen as a place to launch missiles at merchant vessels traveling to or from the Suez canal. As an attempt to bring attention to their political ideals.
I guess that attention ain't happening now
The "how about her emails" crowd sure has changed their tune now
The Buttery Males stopped caring once they won. No amount of misconduct from their side will ever be recognised.
Trump dismisses Signal security failure as
"Our failure".
Signal worked perfectly here: if you add a contact, they get the messages.
What failed was the Trumpist, like at everything else.
That's...not how Signal works, but I appreciate your enthusiasm for the problem.
Yeah sorry I underspecified because the rest is implied in the context of the case. You add a contact to a group, of course they get the messages that go to the group.
Heck, even IRC (basically) works like that.
Because the ignoring of congressional law and judicial orders is intentional but what are they going to do. impeach me. so sick of those guys I can't wait till we start rounding them up and shooting them.
The only reason we know about THIS attempt to bypass the Presidential Records Act, is because they finally fucked up so bad that the NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR accidentally invited a reporter to sit in on their illegal text meeting. It is extremely clear that this sort of illegal arrangement is SOP for the MAGA Nazis.
It is long past time for the Dems to start playing Hard Ball, and this case is the perfect one to start with. The Dems should give this the Hillary treatment, and hang onto it forever. These Nazis should be asked about it in every interview they do forever. They should push for investigation after investigation, and whenever they gain power in either chamber, they should immediatrly launch a deep investigation. Make each participant appear for testimony, and grill them for 12 hours, and do it over and over, for years.
Never let go, be so relentless that even we get sick of it.
Also espionage. Pretty huge f’up.
“The only glitch in two months” …that we’ve learned about so far.
Edit: It’s not the only “glitch”.
'Serious vulnerability': Trump officials' cell numbers — and passwords — found online
Web learned about firing nuclear weapons workers and then trying to hire them back. Does it mean that wasn't a glitch, but a feature?
USA is gonna genocide with or without leaks. Really who's actually going stop USA from murdering poor non-white people in the middle east?
They could plan this publicly on Xitter and it wouldn't matter. They're gonna murder people regardless. They already have been and it's not even news.
This administration has been nothing but "glitches" fuck these people, we need more Luigi.
His first glitch, eh. I would not want to be in the US military under these fuck-ups.
You can call this the only glitch because everything else they have done since January is a line of catastrophies. And this one did not turn into a catastrophe that cost lives just because the journalist in the room behaved responsible.
America continues to ignore that ISP's and their entire infrastructure is hacked. Where infecting end devices is no longer a problem to intercept text messages etc in real time before encrypting them. Any efforts to do something about this were immediately stopped by trump when he took office so that spying can continue in peace. Russia and China are not dependent on such leaks if they are in the systems anyway, but there is no uprising. Whereby that represents the far greater danger. The priorities of the Americans are crazy
If you also count Mitch McConnell, that’s gotta be at least 10 glitches since Christmas.
I don't know about Obama, but let's not forget Biden had classified documents stored in an old office. It was still not as bad as Trump storing documents in Mar-a-Lago and then denying it after he was caught. The incompetence of this administration is ridiculous, but let's not pretend everything was perfect until Trump came along. It is incomprehensible how people in some of the highest offices are willfully mishandling classified information.
I think the big difference is Trump tried to ignore a direct government rule and take classified docs home and store them insecurely, then refused to give them back when asked to address the problem which prompted an FBI raid to reclaim.
Biden was audited and returned what they asked for when asked.
Kind of a drastically different situation.
No, the big difference is that the very few documents held by Biden and Pence (funny how the MAGA Nazis always forget Pence) were determined to be minor breeches, and totally accidental, and were voluntarily found and turned in before the authorities even knew about them. They even invited the authorities to come into their residrnces and search for more. They were handled in good faith.
Trump DELIBERATELY gathered, and stole, hundreds of documents based on their value to our enemies (perhaps to order) with the intent to sell them. He denied having them, finally was persuaded to return them, but he only returned aportion of them, and forced his lawyers to sign an affadavit that they were all returned, and he held no more, which was a lie. Then he ordered his minions to move them around and hide them. Finally, the FBI was forced to raid the building to retrieve them, and some of the documents are still missing. Everything Agent Krasnov did was in bad-faith.
Absolutely. The disregard for government secrets is far more blatant here and in the Trump case and their actions after the fact are far worse. It doesn't change the fact that there are rules for how classified information is to be handled and we have examples of Trump, his cabinet, Biden, Pence and Clinton disregarding those rules. For Clinton, Biden and Pence, at least I buy that it was a mistake and there is some remorse. They didn't double down. It doesn't change the fact that it shouldn't have happened in the first place. Just because things suck now doesn't mean that we should wish for things to just go back to how they were before. Better than Trump should not be the bar.
We're in the "if it happened, it wasn't that bad" phase.
If I was the US military I'd be troubled by the fact the President doesn't recognize how irresponsible and dangerous this all is.
