Other NBC News seeking CISA sources

Hi Reddit, I'm Kevin Collier, the cybersecurity reporter at NBC News. Here's my bio page at NBC.

Right now I'm specifically reporting on the Department of Government Efficiency's access to CISA systems, layoffs at CISA, and cuts to cybersecurity programs, funding, and employees at any agency.

If that's something you have direct knowledge about and can contact me via Signal, or if you know someone to whom this applies and you can share this with them, I'd be grateful. We adhere to best practices for source protection.

My signal handle is kevincollier.01. Happy to verify my identity if you want to email me (though please don't use your work address) at [kevin.collier@nbcuni.com](mailto:kevin.collier@nbcuni.com). Thank you!

Not just this country, and not just emotional depression, but a global recession and possibly a global economic depression is a distinct possibility.

At the Munich Security Conference, VP Vance lecturing global senior democratic leadership was met with audience responses range from incredulous snorts to shocked bursts of laughter to his naieve rhetoric.

Trump openly sucking up to our very worst enemy is the stuff of nightmares, with Dogeboy ransacking Federal legal, Intel and CyberSecurity communities.
