As an ex-fed, I think a good part of the problem with the security breaches is who was working for the government. We need ethical standards and security clearance requirements that cannot be waived by the president nor are enforced by him. We need job descriptions with relevant experience requirements for every federal political appointment and if people don't meet them, they are ineligible for appointment without exception. That would keep us from ending up with the character and quality of people Trump appointed. Once you have ignorant and unethical people in the government, you really can't expect them to keep its secrets or do its work faithfully.... the other thing is what is antifa? A generic insult the way commie used to be. It means exactly nothing in most of the political contexts in which it is used. When O talks about "infilitrating" antifa, he's obviously lying since no such group exists. If he were infiltrating some anti-Trump or generally anti-facist group(s), he could name it (them) and identify it's influence. Instead he uses it as a straw man to justify his own illegal, insurrectionary activities/recommendations.
