For anyone else confused, "Krebs" in this context refers to Chris Krebs[0, 1], former Director of the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

Chris Krebs is unrelated to Brian Krebs of Krebs on Security.

And still there is ample support for the administration, also here. I am curious how much of it is through cognitive dissonance and how much not thinking too hard about the stuff a particular supporter don't like, and how much of it is with eyes open, embracing the crazy and the incompetence for some "higher goal" whatever that may be.

(It also probably is very different, all from "own the libs" through "escalate the second coming of Christ" or any combination thereof.)

You DO realize that TeleMessage was put in place and procured before Trump took office right?
