The United States Department of Health and Human Services suffered a cyberattack that, those familiar with the matter told the press, intended to slow down the agency’s response to the coronavirus pandemic. Data was not stolen, according to three officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

The hack, which involved overloading the HHS servers with millions of hits over several hours, could have been the work of “hostile foreign actors,” but the Trump administration has not yet confirmed any of its suspicions.

Neither the White House nor the National Security Council (NSC) could be reached for comment.

NSC, upon learning about the hacking and release of disinformation, tweeted a message debunking claims of a national lockdown due to the coronavirus that circulated via text message.

1. They're emboldened to attack

because Trump is a pathetically weak President. He's made every US citizen more vulnerable in every regard.

2. Yes. And there is another attack when America is weak in that McConnell

is going around to veteran judges and asking them to retire. That is an attack from within.
