The US policy change has also been established behind closed doors.
A recent memo at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa) set out new priorities for the agency, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security and monitors cyber threats against US critical infrastructure. The new directive set out priorities that included China and protecting local systems. It did not mention Russia.
A person familiar with the matter who spoke to the Guardian on the condition of anonymity said analysts at the agency were verbally informed that they were not to follow or report on Russian threats, even though this had previously been a main focus for the agency.
The person said work that was being done on something “Russia-related” was in effect “nixed”
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the U.S. Cyber Command to halt “all planning against Russia,” The Record reported today.
The cybersecurity publication cited three sources as saying that Hegseth issued the directive last week. It reportedly affects, among other activities, the planning of offensive cybersecurity operations.

That slight Earth tremor you just felt was a change in the planet’s axial precession caused by Reagan spinning in his grave…

I am sure it would be more than that what ever we think his here for the foreseeable future. Just wondering if he is friend or enemy
He's definitely a friend of the enemy

J D Vance got quite the ‘welcome’ to Vermont, where he headed for a ski holiday after that little contra temps in the Oval Office.
Watch at least as far as the first vox pop, on the 55 second mark.
I saw someone online point out the contrast between Zelenskyy, who stayed in Kyiv when it was being bombed and the Russians were trying to kill him and Vance, who ran away like a little coward to a different location because he had to face protesters.
How a snide little rat like him thinks he can lecture someone like Zelenskyy is beyond me.

He's a deliberate stirrer too. When Starmer visited Trump he tried it with him by saying that the Online Safety Act was an attack on free speech, thankfully our PM didn't rise to the bait (i'm not criticising Zelenskyy for trying to respond to the outrageous comments made to him though, as there is so much at stake and he'has seen his country destroyed along with the deaths of many of the population).
