Summary
DER SPIEGEL reporters uncovered private contact details and passwords of senior U.S. security officials, including Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, through public data leaks and commercial search engines.
The leaks revealed active phone numbers linked to Signal, WhatsApp, and social media accounts, raising severe security concerns.
This follows an recent exposed Signal chat discussed military plans against Yemen’s Houthi militia.
Security experts warned of phishing, spyware, and deepfake risks from the leaks.
Calling this a clown show is an insult to clowns. I guess we’ll have to invent new words to describe the exploits of the current US administration.
“I see you are incredibly incompetent, would you be interested in joining the Trump government?”
Oh, so are you a clown, or a 47er?
MAGAt has a nice ring to it.
Do we dare go with “Trumptard”? Has a nice ring to it.
No. MAGAt will do nicely.
“El Trumperino” if you’re not into the whole brevity thing.
Obviously you’re not a golfer
To do so, the reporters used commercial people search engines along with hacked customer data that has been published on the web. Those affected by the leaks include National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.
I mean, I know trump is beyond illegal in most ways but a standard security check would have revealed this.
We’re clean on OPSEC

That’s amazing! I’ve got the same combination on my luggage!

Maybe they shouldn’t have replaced the computer modernization department with a “fire everyone and destroy the country” department headed by a divorced nazi.
Everyday I open lemmy and see a new article about the US government leaders, I’m like “No way, that tittle is misleading” and the article is exactly what the tittle says. It would be pure comedy if it didn’t affect so many people.
The thing is, this is how it was in 2016-2020. It was batshit insanity every day, all day. It was so exhausting and incomprehensible.
And . . . here we are again. Why.
My recollection might be biased, but I remember Trump more isolated. Today all the Republicans seem align, the oligarch are tamed and the political opposition divided.
On the plus side they gave us some incredible moments: when I feel a bit down I remember the Four Seasons Total Landscaping press conference. Puts a smile on my face just reading this in my head!
Competent!
/if you need me to explain that this is sarcasm, fuck you.
Hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahaha
They also figured out my pincode is 0000, der Spiegel is on a roll!
