I&#x27;ve noticed that many .gov email addresses just relay to gmail. I assume <i>or hope</i> it&#x27;s at least business accounts and <i>I hope</i> they require 2FA at least. This has mostly been state .gov addresses that I have experienced gmail bounces, errors and such but there probably needs to be an extensive audit done for all .gov email addresses to see what is being relayed or routed where and which of those emails are encrypted and have the correct government classification headers for gov-to-gov emails. That should give DOGE something to do.

Really raises the question if any of it is fit for purpose in the organisation when someone like that can rise national security adviser

&gt; Waltz had “potentially exploitable information” sent to his Gmail, such as his schedule and other work documents<p>Says nothing about him sending information from the account<p>Goes on to say one of his aides &quot;used Gmail for more sensitive material, such as discussing military positions and weapons systems&quot; which is pretty vague as far as accusations go
