Did I forget to mention this ? Not only was the system used by military staff to party hearty on the taxpayer dime . It was also used by Intel staff to chat about their perversions.

Tulsi Gabbard is on the case .

The chat program was administered by the National Security Agency and intended for discussions of sensitive security matters. But a group of employees used it for discussions that contained sexual themes, intelligence officials said this week. The chats also included explicit discussion of gender transition surgery, officials said.
Transcripts of the chat were first disclosed Monday by Christopher Rufo, a conservative activist who writes for City Journal.
Appearing Tuesday evening on Fox News, Ms. Gabbard said she had issued a directive to fire more than 100 people who participated in the discussions and to strip the officers of their security clearances. She said the chats were an “egregious violation of trust” that violated “basic rules and standards” of workplace professionalism.

Can't help but wonder what Wondergirl thinks about all of this. She seems to have gone permanently silent at AMHD.
