Mass Federal Layoffs Will Cripple U.S. Cybersecurity, Former NSA Official Warns

What Happened: Rob Joyce, former NSA cybersecurity director, warned Congress that Trump and Musk’s mass firings will devastate national security, eliminating critical cybersecurity talent needed to counter China’s cyber threats. Over 100,000 federal workers have been forced out, including 130+ from CISA.

Why It Matters: Cutting cybersecurity personnel weakens U.S. defenses against foreign cyberattacks, making critical infrastructure and federal networks more vulnerable. This reckless downsizing directly aids America’s adversaries—especially as the Pentagon orders a halt in offensive cyber operations against Russia.
