Second round of layoffs at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency definitely happening now. I've heard from at least two laid-off employees tonight.

Yeah, Big Balls, the guy who was fired from a cybersecurity firm for misuse of confidential client information. Just the guy we want in government systems.
Are they preparing the U.S.A. for an INvasion. The opposite of an outvasion were your country would be doing the IN part, if you follow. With what I have read in the last 7 weeks, I would not be surprised if the grifters have sold the place.
Mark my words, U.S. companies and the U.S. itself are in for the largest and most impactful information security breaches in history over the next few years.
I think we’ll see the first severe and potentially life-threatening attacks on infrastructure. With the dilution/dissolution of monitors for the network, they’re handing bad actors the keys to disaster scenarios. Hope folks have a plan for water and electricity.
When you cut oversight, you invite chaos. Infrastructure attacks aren’t ‘if’ but ‘when.’ Those who know where to look already see the cracks forming. Hope people are ready to go off-grid when it hits
I've had CISA interference as a tripwire for a while. DOGE's TTP's include looking for single points of failure in the administrative apparatus that allow them to efficiently choke off government agency functioning. CISA is a big one. People should be monitoring .gov DNS zones.
Pre-Nov I mentioned to a coworker that I was concerned about T's trend towards IT de-regulation and its security implications. He told me I was ridiculous - since he knows who's at CISA and expected new AI security controls under T. Wonder if the people he was thinking of still work there? Hmmm
Trump thinks America is Camelot with him as king. Due to all these people being fired who were in charge of cybersecurity, we actually live in Spamalot.
What country ever needed a Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency when they have Elon and his Klan of Ketamine Kids on alert. We'll be perfectly fine...
"None of this makes the government more efficient or improves government performance in any way," said one laid-off employee. "The opposite. Great people are being fired."
This person estimated that at least eight people in their division had been laid off, with the agency-wide total possibly matching last week's count of 130.
"My managers were all in tears," this former employee said, referring to supervisors at multiple levels. "They all promised to do anything they possibly can to help me find a new job."
Speaking of CISA layoffs, I just found this LinkedIn post from someone who lost their job last week.
They oversaw one of CISA's most important programs, a voluntary network monitoring service for critical infrastructure orgs (private companies & state/local govts).
Russia and China and all our other adversaries are dancing in the streets. Can't wait to get hacked and lose the littler retirement income I have left!
Of all the time in our history we need more of those employees not less. All this to hide their dealings, claim they are saving their followers money and justify giving big tax cuts to their rich buddies. Flood Congress's phones, both parties! We do not want this!
Shadow government time shadow government time we need to start planning the overthrow of this unconstitutional entity currently occupying our government
Shadow government time
This fucking blows my mind. The silence of our politicians is deafening. Where is this leading?
Start printing out your monthly statements on EVERYTHING you own or pay debt on.

(Also: no parents can afford kids in ICU under T. So there is no problem.)
While you’re there, also explain to them why they no longer have Medicaid.
staging a coup such as these two
The GOP should be inundated with calls, emails, & letters from us. Tell them to #StopHegsethTrumpAndMusk

why are the courts and congress allowing him to dismantle everything
I assume we now ignore CISA's usually useful/good updates? Seems to be contaminated
I've asked CISA for a number.
They oversaw one of CISA's most important programs, a voluntary network monitoring service for critical infrastructure orgs (private companies & state/local govts).

Start printing out your monthly statements on EVERYTHING you own or pay debt on.
Then fires thousands.
We’re at the mercy of billionaire sociopaths & teenage assholes like “big balls”
