A conservative think tank that has been laying the groundwork for a possible second #Trump administration has been targeted by an apparent cyber attack.

The America First Policy Institute says it ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผcontacted federal authorities for assistance๐Ÿ‘ˆ๐Ÿผ after its internal network was breached. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/11/afpi-cyber-attack-trump-00183540

@GottaLaff
All those old hacked Ashley Madison passwords still work apparently.
@GottaLaff
Hackers rule!!
I love hackers ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™
@GottaLaff
It probably was the same Federal Authorities
@GottaLaff The irony of them contacting the Federal Government for forensic assistance is astounding.
@Atticus1956 Exactly why I pointed to it. You nailed it.
@GottaLaff Breached? You mean like the Capital was breached on Jan 6th? ๐Ÿ˜ณ
@jgobble @GottaLaff
Oh, come on. It wasn't so much a cyber "attack" as a friendly digital tour group doing a surprise network security review.
@mcpinson @jgobble @GottaLaff ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ†
@jgobble @GottaLaff And the Capitol, too!
@ottawasteph @GottaLaff Hey! Apple spell checker is to blame! I correct EVERYONE on that spelling! ๐Ÿ˜Š

@GottaLaff

too bad... tell em to FO....

@GottaLaff
Did they had the contacted federal authority on their "dismantling bingo card"?
@quixoticgeek

@GottaLaff
Irony is dead.

They ask the Federal Government for assistance with their problems from the very agencies they will eliminate if brought into power.

@schmubba Hence my emojis. Bingo!

@GottaLaff
I live for your emojiโ€™s!

They are bingo incarnate.

@schmubba Ooooo really?? Yay!!
@GottaLaff - so I'm wondering....... if they investigate and happen to look at all the secret stuff and find something naughty in there...... is that fair game discovery?
