>no security checks for Congress members.
WTF?
A part of me understands. Such requirements could be abused by the deepstate or other bad actors to keep elected champions of the people out of the information loop.
But another part of me says, come on man. You can't just be giving state secrets to anyone. I guess the best solution is to have an educated electorate, one who goes over the candidates with a fine toothed comb, in order to avoid electing traitors. Seems like this board is the beginning of such an electorate.
Still, can't believe we are giving state secrets to any Johnny come lately(pic related).
