Other than Trump, Hegseth is the biggest threat to National Security in America.

IMO ... The only reason to use Signal is to keep whatever they're saying or sending secret from voters and citizens. The pure illegality of it reeks of Trump.

I might even go so far as to say that it's fact, not opinion, that the only reason for them to use Signal is to hide things.
I guess you could argue it's "more convenient" than using established secure channels, but sharing classified info isn't supposed to be convenient, it's supposed to be secure.

But it's also easier to share it with the Russians.

Let’s see—firing National Security Council members after a meeting with Laura Loomer, not firing the guy who put a journalist on a Signal chat…then punting him to UN Ambassador and calling it a “promotion”, and putting Marco Rubio in a double role as interim NSA while he’s leading the State Department…clearly this President doesn’t need a functioning National Security Council at all.

Seeing as if Trump's go-fer's are all trying to hide the fact that they were hired because they swore an oath to Trump and not the Constitution it's pretty obvious their qualifications had absolutely nothing to do with the actual jobs they're supposed to lord over. Their actual job skillset is more like bodyguard/babysitter. They're all frauds totally relying on their seasoned career underlings to run things the way they should while keeping them shut up and shut down about revealing how totally unqualified and corrupted Trump and his sycophant cabinet critters really are.

What could go wrong? Well we're living it day by cringe worthy day.

As I know conservatives were extremely concerned about national security in 2016 I can only assume they are here to fight for America’s national security now.

Have youse forgotten? SMERSH was James Bond's earlier enemy...and they were Soviet.

Signal is from SMARSH...co-incidence? I think not.

Double standards, victimhood cry babies, hypocrisy, racists, fascists, politically corrupted religious extremists, deliriously duped MAGAts, anarchist militia, corporate controlled judges and politicians, all led by a ridiculously coifed habitually lying moron whose claims of being heavenly blessed with business ingenuity have led the nation into a financial crisis, cut ties with our longtime allies and divided the nation's working class schmuks like no other. Long live King Ding-a-Ling and his clueless indentured FAFO'd serfs. Ugh.

And to avoid the official records act.

But her passwords

Of course, of course. I always think it's so dumb in movies when people have these ridiculously easy-to-guess passwords, but turns out, people really do that.

They really do.
When I was installing, I would make a generic password, but I used a system so that not everyone on that street had the same password. I would go back for a service call and most would still have the same password. I would tell them as soon as I leave change the password. Or call and have them change it for you. (reason being is that just about everyone either A couldn't decide on a password, or B the password was what they used on everything and was weak as F, so weak it wouldn't even pass the default requirements.

So I used a system, close to what all the others used except I would change a part to the date of the day I was there.

My wife is so against 2FA it is argument material. At least now she is using a password manager with randomized.

Heck, working on govment computers requiring 14 or more characters was good training. Except now I leave it up to MS to make my passwords.
