Your solution then is to have 38% of the staff work? Seems pretty dumb to leave the agency to 888 people. Plus the funding for CISA didn’t cut the budget by that 17% and provided millions in funding to address critical position openings.

Executive orders don’t override everything. This reauthorized CISA again a with that it will have five programs (Threat Hunting; Vulnerability Management; Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation; Security Programs; and Security Advisors) that won’t change because of an EO. Executive orders do not have all this power you are acting like they do.

I assume you used AI to generate your list because of all the errors in what you listed.

I didn't put forward a solution, I simply pointed out your faux outrage is clearly partisan. You place the blame for the agency's issues at the feet of the democrats because they fight against the administration's use of DHS to murder American citizens in the street while completely ignoring the damage done by the Republican administration directly to CISA. The Democrats are attempting to reign in ICE and CISA gets caught in the crossfire because a massive amount of government agencies have been rolled up under DHS. You have a big problem with that but when CISA is directly neutered by the Republicans you are cool with it. Your take is bullshit.

Uhhh this isn’t even close to being accurate as the Republicans have clearly been just as damming of how ICE has handled things as Democrats in these hearings. The increase of ICE has a direct response to state and local governments not cooperating with immigration laws. Minnesota’s draw down coincided with the state and local governments working with immigration authorities to deport people who have orders to be deported.

Any loss of life is terrible no matter what but if Minnesota cooperated people would be alive and even more wouldn’t have gotten injured. Democrats have been huge in paving the way for the Federal Government to force itself on states and local governments. This is the result of making those policy choices.

Congressional Republicans clearly pushed back on the Admin across the government for funding cuts. It’s grossly inaccurate to say they didn’t because look how how much more funding ALL these departments got.

My take is a take of someone who actually is on the ground actually working for Congress.
