$491M Budget Cut: The White House Move That Could Reshape CISA
Manage episode 480963183 series 3645080
In this episode, we unpack the rising tensions surrounding the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) as it faces proposed budget cuts, looming layoffs, and growing criticism over alleged mission overreach. While CISA continues to champion its role in defending national infrastructure and guiding cyber resilience, reports of domestic speech monitoring—particularly around elections and COVID-19—have ignited political backlash and civil liberties concerns. We explore the facts behind the funding crisis, examine the claims of censorship, and consider what’s at stake for U.S. cyber defense as trust in the agency erodes. Is CISA evolving beyond its mandate, or being strategically undermined? Tune in for a deep dive into one of the most polarizing issues in national cybersecurity today.
