Hunter got $5 million for getting that removed and 10% went to the big. There is your answer.

500k seems pretty weak to super screw. But also probably doesn't take much for Joe to get confused with all the zeros. Plus he hates us so we have that going for us.

Joe is hoping that 500k is enough to bribe the Doctor to ignore the Do Not Resuscitate Order, he accidently signed.

White House can't answer because it's already got bribe money coming out of it's eyes, bribe money coming out if it's wherever

Perhaps there's money to be made by 'someone' closely tied to CHY-NA...

Translation: We don't any of us have a clue...we just started at the top of the pile of Trumps EO's and started cancelling them...it's really fun.

Scary part is, it’s been 28 hours and the “white house” has yet to give a response.

Fucking ridiculous

I recommend watching the few seconds after Ptaski finishes her dodge. She is very rattled. At 35.45 mark: https://youtu.be/7tpHT1fKQaU

Don't forget to indicate to the WH what you think!

ObamakilledJoan 6 points ago +6 / -0

You are correct. Very rattled, not sure that I’ve seen her make those weird ass face movements before.

It's all about this administration publicly calling to question EVERYTHING touched by the Trump administration. It's petty showboating.

She needs to keep asking that question at the press briefings. Every time.

Remember how Kayleigh always was prepared with answers, facts, and details to any questions fired her way? This is NO Kayleigh.

Trying to play catch up from losing 2016.

Plus more distraction from the Stolen Election.

Now the Rinos can feign outrage while dems go on a rampage destroying our rights and our Economy.

Good job, Biden voters and anyone else not having the balls to stand against the fraudulent election.

Just keep living in pretend world, where a strong border and American economy take second fiddle to your oh-so important feefees.

Won't last much longer at the rate that CCP JOE and the hoe are pulling the strings.

"President Donald Trump signed an executive order on May 1 last year prohibiting bulk power system equipment from foreign companies in the U.S. grid,"

Ahem.

Industrial Control Systems (ICS), such as those which control energy management currently have no certifications nor requirements to meet before being placed in Federal facilities...and those are US-owned!!! That is, unless they are vendor-supplied from overseas to locations that are overseas..like say, a military base in Italy using Italian HVAC/ICS/SCADA, which for logistics, makes sense. Now add China back into the mix? Bruh...

"Analysts believe this means that the United States will set up a whitelist for the procurement of such equipment."

That would be Common Criteria or an ICS spinoff of Common Criteria (https://www.commoncriteriaportal.org/). Perhaps not focusing solely on IA-enabled ICS because some of those are rather "dumb" and do not perform actions such as passing credentials/storing passwords/enacting authentication. If that effort gets stood up, they build labs to test equipment which handles IA-enabled operations and overall security functionality of the systems they purchase. Along with that, they'd need to standardize a LOT of ICS. When I say a lot, I mean .. let's say there were 50 Navy bases, the chance that all 50 use the same energy management is 0. There will be 10+ different vendors and that doesnt account for releases/versions of hardware and software at each location from the same vendor. You could have Johnson Controls System v4 at one base, and v8 at another, and they'd be wildly different. Now hypothetically I will hazard a guess that there could be as many as 840 ICS over say.. 60 federal locations, and 700 of them are all different... I totally made that up. Now take that math and extrapolate that for every federal building/military location... get a number yet? I cant.. that's high.

So what this EO is doing is introducing more unknowns in a place we already have a ton of unknowns and doing so from a country we already cannot purchase IA-enabled products from, being that China-supplied products are outright forbidden. I dont care how good your DMZ platform is.. if the energy supplied it goes down, and your generator goes down too.. because there are backdoors galore in it. That's assuming you have cybersecurity measures in place for your ICS in the first place. Yep.

That's about all I can - TOTALLY GUESS ON - regarding Federal ICS and issues we could possibly have with allowing China in a already fragile ecosystem with little to no cyber oversight.

  • I totally guessed on all this. yep

I’m surprised someone asked a good question. Shit I just lost power.

Why did Chairman Biden roll back the EO to protect our critical infrastructure, Comrade Ptaski? uh uh uh uh

Shes going to circle back. How did I know she was going to say that?

At least America is saved from... Trump and the... vehement negativity the propaganda machine has cranked out for 5 years. At least the media that holds the minds of people hostage has finally calmed down and transitioned to sing songs of appraisal to Chairman Sniffy and his cabinet of thugs and criminals.
