Jen Psaki

officials have had their personal data hacked before.

The hack is the story here precisely because of how unsurprising it is.

I mean, U.S.

officials have been warning about Iran's cyber capabilities for years now.

And after the U.S.

struck Iran last year back in June, Trump was repeatedly warned by his own agencies that one of the primary ways Iran could strike back against the U.S.

was through a cyber attack.

Trump's Department of Homeland Security warned about it, as did CISA, the NSA, the Department of Defense, and the FBI.

And nearly a year ago, all five of those agencies warned Trump about the danger of cyber attacks from Iran.

But despite those warnings, Trump cut more than 1,000 jobs at CISA, our country's top cybersecurity agency.

Well, guess what the Trump administration started doing this week after they cut 1,000 CISA jobs and started a war with a country known for cyber attacks?

Well, they announced plans to hire 300 more people at CISA.

Oh, you need those guys after all?

Who could have predicted that one?

Maybe anyone.

Tomorrow marks one month of Trump's war with Iran.

And one of the defining features of this war so far has been the combination of how predictable Iran's responses have been and also how seemingly unprepared the Trump administration has been in handling those responses.

I mean, just take, for example, a few of the warnings that Trump's top military advisor, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dan Kaine, reportedly gave Trump before he attacked Iran.

The Wall Street Journal reported that before the U.S.

went to war, General Kaine told Trump that an American attack could prompt Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz.
