President currently feuding with a beloved American comedy icon who was murdered 24 hours ago.
Trump doubles down on his Rob Reiner attack: "I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person... He became like a deranged person, Trump Derangement Syndrome. So I was not a fan of Rob Reiner at all in any way, shape or form. I thought he was very bad for our country."

Trump is destroying U.S. cybersecurity defenses after the Chinese just successfully conducted one of the biggest and most successful hacks on U.S. telecom infrastructure in history

Trumpism is indistinguishable from a foreign attack

worse, because of hollow faith and patriotism rhetoric
The Trump admin is laying off nearly 200 CISA employees & forcing dozens more to take new jobs at other agencies (sometimes across the country) or quit.

Morale & productivity are sinking at the already-depleted agency, further jeopardizing US cybersecurity.

My story w/ new details: bit.ly/3KLoptn
Layoffs, reassignments further deplete CISA
Some CISA staffers have been pushed out, while others are being told to move across the country for jobs outside their skill sets.

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.
We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
