DOGE probably would have had access to the information that could have made this kind of attack possible.

Also, its still not gonna distract people from the fact that Trump is child raping diaper shitter

Some supervisors have told staff to take vacation due to the outages and the shutdown of email and things like that.

Well I dunno how that'll work if you've shut down payroll in the first place.

I know you're probably being cheeky, but they do have cyber security teams as well. Not just people to be warm bodies at protests.

I know you're making a joke, but they do have cybersecurity, IT and such in the Minnesota National Guard. Makes sense but I was a bit surprised too.
