And the security breech (Courts transcription service outsourced to Indian company) gets even bigger… how did they not see this coming? A: Poor or non-existant contract and operations oversight. A typical result from the #Privatisation of what ought to be a publically owned and operated service.

“Earlier this year, embattled transcription company VIQ Solutions breached its Commonwealth contract with the Federal Court by allowing highly sensitive court files to be accessed offshore in India.

The company is now being wound down and was removed from AusTender as an approved supplier by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) on March 19.

However, 13 government agencies have used VIQ Solutions since 2019, including the Department of Defence, Services Australia, the ATO and even the Attorney-General's Department, broadening the risk of potential breaches.”

Senate Must Reject Todd Blanche for Attorney General

Attorney General is our nation’s top law enforcement position. The person in that role leads a Department of Justice, including the FBI, that is supposed to be an independent force for upholding the rule of law.

Todd Blanche is down on all fours and slobbering at the chance to be a “good boy.” Do not confirm Blanche for Attorney General.

#MS_Now confirms #Trump will formally nominate his former personal lawyer #ToddBlanche to be his next #AttorneyGeneral.

Todd Blanche mishandled the #Epstein files, supported the controversial #SlushFund to give to #insurrectionists, and targeted Trump's perceived enemies.
