The National Infrastructure Advisory Council is made up of presidential appointees from the private sector, academia and government, and was originally founded in 2001 under then-President George W. Bush. It advises the president on security, including cybersecurity, for critical infrastructure like water systems. There are now only 20 members listed on the council’s website, down from 27 earlier today.
The Trump administration has not shown itself to be “adequately attentive to the pressing national security matters within the NIAC’s purview, or responsive to sound advice,” the resigning council members wrote.
They also said the president has “given insufficient attention to the growing threats to the cybersecurity of the critical systems upon which all Americans depend, including those impacting the systems supporting our democratic election process.”
This is only the latest White House council to lose members in the wake of Trump’s Charlottesville response. Multiple high-profile business leaders on two White House advisory boards resigned to protest his remarks, prompting Trump to officially disband the councils. Every member of the White House arts committee resigned. Trump ended plans for another advisory council on infrastructure last week.
A science envoy for the State Department also sent a resignation letter to Trump on Wednesday that contained a not-so-subtle secret message: “IMPEACH.”

Nothing we can really do about it now I guess. Hope Mueller turns up with something soon, not that Pence will be any less of an asshole but at least he knows how to do his job.

Oh you liberals and your fake news. The election wasn't hacked, ok?

It's like Socialism is the way Christianity used to be - if you weren't Christian, then first, they killed you. When they lost more and more power, they called you crazy.
Same in the former USSR. If you went against the Kremlin, they just said you were crazy and threw you in a gulag.
I keep wondering if the people in LA, NYC, San Fran, and Seattle will ever realize they they are just tiny little islands of brainwashed Kool-Aid drinkers in an ocean of people who are not fooled by this tired ass bullshit - that you can get something from nothing.
