Crux of the matter:

>A serious breach at a healthcare administrator serving the U.S. House of Representatives has potentially exposed the personal data of hundreds of lawmakers and their staff, top representatives and a senior Congressional official said in letters circulated on Wednesday.

>One of the letters, which the House's Chief Administrative Officer Catherine Szpindor (CAO) sent to members of Congress and which Reuters saw, said a "significant data breach" at DC Health Link had potentially exposed the personal information of thousands of enrollees.

Entirely missing the point that there is a significant amount of anti LGBT and especially anti-trans plotting revealed among these 'top officials'. Literal troves of right wing filth. But it isn't going to be reported :)

I know what’ll fix this. More corporate tax cuts and increased taxes on the middle and lower classes. Also, cutting the IT budget further will correct the issues.

Well judging that most lawmakers within the five miles radius of the DC area looked up terms like divorce, massage, balding, and midlife crisis and within that demographic clicked on a ad that mentioned a ted cruz erotic fan fiction.
