Summary

A vulnerability in the new OPM email server allowed anyone to send mass messages to federal employees, exposing poor cybersecurity.

Over 13,000 NOAA staff received spam and vulgar messages, including crude jokes about Trump and bizarre newsletters, causing widespread outrage.

The breach resulted from an overhaul led by Elon Musk that installed underqualified personnel and an insecure in-house system, sparking a class-action lawsuit for cybersecurity failures.

The unsecured system also inadvertently revealed ties to Project 2025 and a plan to gather government employee data as Trump’s loyalists reshape federal operations.

    Trump won by 1.5% of the vote. And that amount was basically the number of people the Republicans managed to disenfranchise during this election.

    WE did nothing. The vast majority of Americans want this madness to end but no one with any sort of power to do anything is standing up to the orange bully.

    For all the guns we own, this country has very few Luigis who understand this is a class war. So what else are the people who didn’t vote for the asshole in the oval supposed to do about it?
