The cybersecurity agency CISA is calling attention to a vulnerability discovered in TeleMessage, a messaging application that was recently used by Trump’s former national security advisor, Mike Waltz. Waltz’s short tenure as national security advisor was marked by two incidents related to the use of messaging applications. First, in what became known as ‘Signalgate’, he erroneously added a journalist to a Signal group chat where national security leaders discussed an upcoming military operation in Yemen.  Waltz was later seen using an application called TeleMessage Signal on his phone, which again raised security concerns.

Postecoglou is in the strange position of leading the club to their worst ever Premier League campaign yet being one win away from ending the a 17-year trophy drought. The Australian’s future has been the source of constant speculation this season and Sunday’s 2-0 home defeat by Crystal Palace was their 20th league loss, leaving them in 17th place. Next Wednesday in Bilbao, however, victory…
