I concur with Jill Thach’s comments that contrary to the Mueller report, President Donald Trump claims that foreign interference in the 2016 elections is a hoax and refuses to do anything about it (“Russia’s interference needs to be challenged,” Star-Advertiser, Letters, May 31).
According to The Washington Post, the U.S military is developing a tough new doctrine to counter cyberattacks by Russia and other rivals with a strategy of “persistent engagement.” The central theme of the strategy, led by U.S. Cyber Command, is that military “cyberwarriors” would take the fight into enemy networks (and gray zones in between).
Let’s urge the administration to give the Cyber Command strategy its full support and for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to stop blocking bipartisan election-security bills. Let our cyberwarriors deploy a robust offensive and help restore a high level of trust in our election system.
