Is INCOMPETENCE America’s biggest security threat?

from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker

Convention would have you believe that the most classified American secrets - such as live military operations to strike at targets abroad - are handled with total security and professionalism. There are strict protocols and any security professional is thoroughly briefed and trained in them from the beginning. And yet in the Trump 2.0 administration, such discussions happen on third party apps on phones that may, or may not, have been compromised by adversaries. Oh, and then they are also sent to whoever might have been absent-mindedly added to the group chat - including national journalists. Let's discuss.
