Maybe it's just the recipients of the intel that suck. NSA or CIA did have people inside the hack, right? We knew all of this waaaaaay back when, right? So good on whoever that was.
But really. Huge outlays, overwhelming tides of cash, and we got beat. Beat like a drum. Whole country crumbling in slow-motion, starting to pull down the world. 'The Russians hacked our election,' tick tick tick.
All that cash and all those Beautiful Minds and Good Will Huntings couldn't foresee all of this and move to prepare for it.
'Cause we were not prepared. I read that Steele Dossier on Buzzfeed, and suddenly realized a bunch of low-life gangsters and bumbling hatchethead villains managed to pry the hinges of the Whole Thing and bust in. And they're still in, looting and smashing every goddamned day.
'Procedure'. 'Process.' 'National Security Protocols.'
It's all so much bullshit if they don't break back into the cockpit and pull up. 'Cause we're diving.
All that cash. All those brains. 'Uhhhhhhhh...'
Fuck.
