By now you have heard of the latest horrific misstep committed by Secy Pete Hegseth, who had a commercial internet connection installed in his office, so that he could use Signal from the comfort of his desktop computer. Not only that, but he is evading record keeping requirements as you well know. Some questions that need answers, if there is ever a hearing: 1. What else did he access besides Signal from his desktop computer? News sites, emails, X/Twitter, chat rooms, bitcoin sites, bank accounts?? Porn sites? What a goldmine for foreign bad actors, the possibilities for blackmail and security breaches are endless. 2. How long will the Trump administration put up with the monumental incompetence and lack of judgement from a man responsible for keeping America and her military safe? 3. Has he given access to the Pentagon’s network to foreign adversaries and hackers because of his carelessness? 4. Is he the only Trump administration official who thought it was a good idea to have their own “dirty line” installed to evade strict security protocols and required record keeping? Is that “dirty line” in fact the proverbial “direct line to Putin” the Trump administration seems to have? 5. How long can we afford to keep Hegseth around? If loose lips sink ships, then a dirty line ought to mean jail time.
