Will GOP Cut Social Security?

Submitted by ub on

The Republicans partied too hard when they gave all those tax cuts to the rich, despite warning this would definitely happen to US.

Corporate welfare mastermind and Republican Senator Mitch McConnell rejects abolition of unpaid for subsidies, handouts, giveaways and bailouts to big businesses, including his Koch brother paymasters. He is calling for desperately needed Social Security and Medicare "entitlements" and the American public has to stop the GOP from doing this to you and me.

WH Security Clearance

Submitted by ub on

Starting today, White House employees who have had access to classified information under temporary security clearances will have them revoked.

A security clearance is a US Government determination for access to classified information. The term “eligibility for access” means the same thing as security clearance and is used in record systems and by personnel security specialists.

This move s part of a security overhaul in the wake of the Rob Porter domestic abuse allegations, which applies to employees for whom background investigations have been pending since June.

Why does our national security appear to be in danger? How come are our nation's secrets are being shared with people who have not been vetted and issued a permanent security clearance? It is a national disgrace.

A security clearance is a status granted to individuals allowing them access to classified information, whether it be state or organizational secrets or to restricted areas, after completion of a thorough FBI background check.

PRIVACY vs SECURITY

Submitted by ub on

Encryption might enable absolute privacy but national security must be allowed to prevail. The problem lies in our government's definition of national security. However, access to private information is essential to keeping citizens safe.

In fact, there are cases where the authorities should be able to access encrypted data, like the California case which developed between Apple and the FBI over the San Bernardino shooting suspect's smartphone messages.
