Sadly, I can’t get past the paywall on an article I coauthored but you get the point.
It’s exactly one month since @johnsipher.bsky.social and I wrote this Foreign Policy piece about how the US would now inevitably be seen as an unreliable intelligence sharing partner. The Signal debacle shows the article wasn’t pessimistic enough.

They could be doing irreparable damage to the federal civil service in their attempts to thin it out, with few, if any, ways of finding out what they’re doing. It kind of makes Hillary Clinton’s storing of government data on a private email server look rather quaint, doesn’t it?
