Acting CISA director failed a polygraph. Career staff are now under investigation.

The story is insane. The acting head of cyber security, a Noem crony, repeatedly demanded to see highly classified information he didnâ€™t need access to, and when staff set up a lie detector test as a condition to grant him access, he failed it. So DHS suspended the staffers.

The current DHS don't even have any real respect for national security, like, at all. Nor ANY for the experienced career government employees who've collectively kept our country impressively safe for many decades (besides 9/11 and a few other snafus).
