A better Indiana Jones sequel would have been set in the 1990s as two trepid investigators find the CIA documents about the Ark Of The Covenant and everything else in that warehouse and go on merry adventures.

I've always liked the notion that the Ark is some mad radioactive rock that has to be kept in lead until the (suicide) pall bearers drop the lid and the skin starts to melt......hours later going by that Chernobyl series.

🚨 Must read: Timothy Snyder on #SignalGate:

"Signalgate: violating national security in order to violate rights"

'Our government is openly compromising our national security, the better to violate our rights. Its position is that it is worth risking the lives of soldiers abroad in order to be able to persecute civilians at home."

And a guy is going to die in Yemen.

…. The first target – their top missile guy – we had positive ID of him walking into his girlfriend’s building….

you can be sure that the Houthi’s are going after the guy who confirmed “ the walking into “ ( and it was not a drone )

#Ratcliffe said the #CIA officer he had added to the #Signal chat was his chief of staff, who is not serving under cover. While he chastised #TheAtlantic for making it look as if he had revealed #classified information by including the name, the magazine said it had withheld the name at the urging of the agency. The CIA typically asks that the names of most of its officers be kept secret to preserve their ability to serve overseas in undercover roles in the future.

Director of National #Intelligence #TulsiGabbard, #FBI Director #KashPatel & #CIA Director #JohnRatcliffe are testifying before the #House Intelligence Cmte again Wed amid fallout over senior #Trump national officials sharing messages about a #military strike over an unsecured group chat w/ #TheAtlantic’s #JeffreyGoldberg.

#Gabbard addressed the #Signal fiasco in opening remarks, referring to #Waltz’s previous comments & noting that he has “taken full responsibility.”

Continued thread

During today's briefing before the Senate Intelligence Committee regarding the leak of information about attacks in Yemen via Signal, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard stated that they were unaware of the Department of Defense policy prohibiting the sharing of even Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) via unsecured devices.

Das absolut Beste an der #Signal-Leak-Geschichte:

Die Signal-Foundation hätte sich keine bessere Werbung kaufen können.
Wenn ihr Messenger als reguläres Kommunikationsmittel der #CIA benutzt wird, dürfte dies so ziemlich der gewünschte Ritterschlag sein.

Anwendungsfehler sind ja nicht das Problem von Signal, sondern der User.
