It was gutted because CISA was obviously an agent of the Biden administration to embarrass Trump. Or did Biden do that too...somehow after his term ended

"The hacking campaign is also a warning to many US critical infrastructure operators who have struggled to secure their systems despite years of federal exhortations."
