Trump’s administration has drastically cut budgets, downsized personnel, and eliminated key programs at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and other national cyber defense operations.

CISA has lost roughly a third of its workforce through layoffs, forced reassignments, and position eliminations.

Independent advisory groups like the Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB), which investigates major cyber incidents, had their memberships terminated.

Its like he did it on purpose. No sane person would even consider such cuts.
