No Secrets Left Worth Keeping

First we find out that a Russian cybersecurity firm got to examine the source code for central Pentagon software under Obama.

Then we learned that Russian hackers stole NSA data, which may allow for easier penetration.

Now it turns out that Chief of Staff Kelly's phone was compromised since last December, and he didn't learn of the breach until this summer, all the while being the head of the Department of Homeland Security!

If the head of DHS doesn't check for bugs, hacks, and other technical compromises of his devices, what can be said of everyone else in the government?

Aren't there common sense protocols for compromise awareness that our officials are briefed on when taking office?

And that's not even counting the obvious and inexcusable negligence of Javanka keeping officials on private servers after all the brouhaha with Hillary Clinton doing the same thing.

Jeez.
