The hack may very well have been a big deal and we won't know the extent of the damage for a while, if ever. But as president of the most powerful country in the world it's important for Trump not to let the country look weak so he's going to downplay it.
What's important is that he's heavily implying that it was China, which we all know it was.
Unless Russia signed it saying "this was us, we did it" you don't know who it was. Also, who could really tell who signed it? Crazy. Unless you follow the packets back to the originating servers where the actual hacker/commander/bunker is, you can't be sure. They all blame each other, cover their own tracks, smear everyone else.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. Secretary of Energy Dan Brouillette issued a prohibition order designed to reduce the risks that entities associated with the People’s Republic of China pose to the Nation’s bulk-power system (BPS). The order invokes the authority delegated to the Secretary by Executive Order 13920, Securing the United States Bulk-Power System (EO 13920), and takes effect January 16, 2021. The order prohibits utilities that supply critical defense facilities (CDF) from procuring from the People’s Republic of China, specific BPS electric equipment that poses an undue risk to the BPS, the security or resilience of critical infrastructure, the economy, national security, or safety and security of Americans.
Is this another fuck china signal since he included Pompeo and Ratcliffe? All 3 of them mentioned china in basically 24 hrs. China is fucked.
Is he saying the media is making the hack story out to be worse that it really is?

Chy-na strikes again?
Why is Pompeo saying it was Russia??
The usual suspects? China, Russia, Iran?

Because the exploit used has been used used by Russia in the past.
According to Crowdstrike...
An exploit that was used in the past? An exploit that was NOT fixed since RUSSIA USED IT IN THE PAST???? WTF. LOL.
