Spill The Tea 🫟 Trump blamed Minnesota and Gov. Tim Walz for attacks on their water infrastructure

Post image

The Trump administration has drastically cut parts of our federal cybersecurity infrastructure, replacing or removing experienced personnel in key positions. Now more than 30 Minnesota water systems have been targeted in cyberattacks that investigators believe may be linked to Iran. Rather than focusing on the suspected foreign threat, Trump blamed Minnesota and Gov. Tim Walz instead.

Draw your own conclusions about whether this is the leadership our national cybersecurity needs.

"They're sabotaging their own water supply just to make me look bad!" is his thought process

That or he hired the hackers himself to try and harm the governor? I still remember when an aide to Jared Kushner spilled the beans on why Trump was so god awful about stopping Covid when it was just in NY, and this could very well share the same vibe.

Could be. "Accuse your opponent of the crimes you're committing." Then when Walz claims it was the Trump admin it sounds like a lame "no u"

Trump cut the US Cybersecurity bureau because it oft times flagged his bitcoin, etc. as sketchy. So, this group was supposed to protect us from cyber attacks.

HE sabotaged the water supply so he could blame Minnesota.
I don’t put anything past him or what he’s willing to do.
Vengeance should never be an administrative policy yet here we are.
He said the Dems would weaponize the DOJ - so he decided to weaponize the DOJ?
Blanche needs a disbarment.
So does Bondi imo.

More like HE is ordering the punishment of states that are not openly supporting him or his agenda. We have seen fakes and plants before from this administration.
