Summary
Trump’s transition team is relying on private email servers, raising security concerns among federal officials who fear potential hacking and misuse of sensitive information.
The White House has instructed agencies to limit electronic sharing and instead offer in-person briefings or reading room access for sensitive materials.
Federal employees are wary of transmitting classified or personnel data to unsecured servers, with some requiring transition officials to verify compliance with security standards.
The reliance on private emails is slowing the transfer of government materials ahead of Trump’s inauguration.
You really think he wants China and Russia and North Korea and Israel to steal his communications? I dont see why.
No, I think this is just stupidity
I’m sure that MBS gave Jared Kushner $2 billion against the wishes of his own government for absolutely no reason at all.
I’m also sure that Ivanka Trump receiving over a dozen huge patents in China mere days after Trump saved ZTE was also just a huge coincidence.
Trump storing dozens of boxes of classified information in a golf course bathroom was just a clerical error and Trump’s top priority was national security. The fact that foreign nationals who paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for membership to the club were all over the place like it was a Walmart on Black Friday was just Trump’s way of showing how secure those documents were, since nobody looked in that particular bathroom at all!
And of course, I’m sure Trump has given an explanation why he had been holding meetings with foreign nationals where no US representatives or note takers were allowed to join him since pretty much the start of his first term.
Trump can be bought. Cheap. And he has been showing since 2017 that US national security is absolutely up for grabs.
Absolutely. Trump wants to sell that info, not give it away!
