We won’t telegraph our moves to the ENEMY.

We will however light a FIRE to flush them out.

"I'll be terminating it within a relatively short period of time. We get rid of NAFTA. It's been a disaster for the United States. It's caused us tremendous amounts of unemployment and loss and company loss and everything else," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One. "That'll be terminated. And so Congress will have a choice of the USMCA or pre-NAFTA, which worked very well."

Trump formally signed the USMCA alongside Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and outgoing Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto at the G20 summit on Friday. In the wake of ceremonial signing, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle expressed some misgivings about the USMCA.

"I think President Trump's goal here was to light a fire under Congress," Larry Kudlow, Trump's chief economic adviser, told reporters on Monday.

You see that USB stick in your hand?

The one that has been wiped and contains no files, that your anti-virus software claims is squeaky-clean and free of any malicious code?

Well, maybe it’s not quite as simple as that.

Because a pair of security researchers are planning to demonstrate next week how they managed to reprogram the firmware on removable USB drives to contain malware capable of compromising computer systems.

And, because the malware never touches the flash memory of the USB device (where you files would normally reside) but in the firmware that controls the stick’s basic functions instead, the malicious code is entirely invisible to conventional security tools and your computer’s operating system.

Once reprogrammed, claim the researchers, there are a number of ways in which the once harmless USB drive can act maliciously:

A device can emulate a keyboard and issue commands on behalf of the logged-in user, for example to exfiltrate files or install malware. Such malware, in turn, can infect the controller chips of other USB devices connected to the computer.

The device can also spoof a network card and change the computer’s DNS setting to redirect traffic.

A modified thumb drive or external hard disk can – when it detects that the computer is starting up – boot a small virus, which infects the computer’s operating system prior to boot.

To prove the concept, security researchers Karsten Nohl and Jakob Lell have created some code that they have dubbed “BadUSB”, which they claim can turn a benign device “evil”.
