Wow. Woman on my teevee says that the Russians had complete access to the highest value targets in the federal government for months. And that they went for those high value targets wholesale.
It’ll be a long time to even know what Trump let them have access to on his watch.
Not retail?!
Figures Trump would let us get ripped off yet again.
According to court documents, Aguirre had been paid a total of $266,400 by the Houston-based Liberty Center for God and Country, with $211,400 of that amount being deposited into his account the day after the incident
sounds like a criminal conspiracy to me. here’s to watching no one be convicted. 
Wholesale infiltration. This is a huge breach.
Not that trump doesn’t chat with Putin anyway.
We’re not saying this is how SolarWinds was backdoored, but its FTP password ‘leaked on GitHub in plaintext’
That was incredibly stupid, but they are also saying their office 365 tenant was taken over, and their build system tampered with…
Sure, Jan Jake …
I mean, they actually declared so in their 8-K, which does lend some weight to it.
Liberty Center for God and Country seems as wingnut as he is.
Incorporated in August this year, so they’re probably a front for someone else’s money.
who knows, maybe ours.
“Six weeks after Election Day, Trump has spent more than half of his days with no public appearances, showing little interest in the daily work of being president. In all, there have been 20 days with no public events at all listed on Trump’s schedule in the weeks since Election Day, and zero intelligence briefings. He’s held 13 public appearances open to the press, conducted a single on-camera interview, and taken questions from reporters on only two occasions. By contrast, he has spent nine days on his golf course.” CNN
Sounds accurate.
Seriously, though, he took the “intelligence” out of intelligence briefings on day one. I feel better knowing the Biden team is getting the briefings now.
I think we just found out what Bill is getting Hillary for Christmas
That would be so satisfying to do!
A Lincoln Project founder quits the party of trump
Ooops, paywall. Here is text from another source:
"Jennifer Horn, the former chairwoman of the New Hampshire Republican Party and a co-founder of the anti-Trump GOP group The Lincoln Project, announced Thursday in a new op-ed that she is leaving the Republican Party as President Trump and his allies continue their efforts to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Horn said she “became a Republican” because she viewed the party’s values as “a voice for equality, freedom and constitutional conservatism, with a rich history of fighting for what was right because it was right.”
“For the past five years, however, I have found myself fighting for what I thought were the principles of my party in the face of the ever-deteriorating character and integrity of party representatives,” Horn wrote in the op-ed published Thursday by USA Today. “They have revealed their impotence and decrepitude as they have fallen, one by one, at the feet of the most corrupt, destructive and unstable president in the history of our country.”
“It seems there is no assault on human dignity too great, no attack on democracy too extreme, to inspire the Republican weaklings in Congress to speak up or stand up to President Donald Trump,” she continued.
The former GOP state official accused elected Republican leaders of being “silent in the face of this president’s most contemptuous and at times barbaric actions. They have defended and excused his impeachable betrayals.”
She added that “worst of all,” some Republicans have “openly supported his attempts to sabotage the Constitution and dismantle democracy as we know it.”
“Trump’s post-election attempts to invalidate millions of legitimate votes through an abuse of the judicial system amount to no less than an attempted coup and has been openly encouraged and supported by every level of the Republican Party,” Horn wrote, saying that Republicans have “humiliated themselves and disgraced our great nation” and that “the party of Lincoln is no more.”
Following President-elect Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential election, Trump and his allies launched a slate of legal challenges in states across the country in an effort to overturn the results.
The Supreme Court last week rejected a bid by Texas, which was also backed by 18 GOP state attorneys and 126 House Republicans, which sought to nullify Biden’s wins in Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia and Pennsylvania.
Horn said in the op-ed that she will change her voter registration from Republican to independent this week.
“I do so not because of Trump, but because of everyone else in the party who openly embraces Trumpism, because of the party’s perfidious leaders, and a platform that advocates against equal rights for all,” she wrote.
Horn is not the only co-founder of the Lincoln Project to renounce the Republican Party this week. Longtime GOP strategist Steve Schmidt announced during an episode of the “Battleground” podcast published Monday that he is registering as a Democrat. -The Hill
