Daring Fireball: The Trump Administration Signal Scandal, Somehow, Gets Worse

National security leaders using this app — which effectively just removes all of Signal’s actual security features by backing up all messages as plain text — is so stupid it’s surprising, even from these idiots Trump has surrounded himself with.

Can you imagine if this had come up in the Biden administration? The Obama administration?

They would have been crucified live at 8pm ET on Fox (not even Fox News).
