Maggie Hassan has asked for an urgent classified briefing from acting CISA director Nick Andersen after reports that an exposed private contractor GitHub repository contained internal CISA and DHS credentials, logs and keys.

Pentagon to review Kelly remarks on depleted US munitions after Hegseth claim

Sen. Mark Kelly’s comments about depleted U.S. munitions prompted Fox News’s Pete Hegseth to refer him to Pentagon lawyers for allegedly disclosing a classified briefing; Kelly says the remarks came from Hegseth’s own statements at an open Senate hearing, not a classified session. The episode is part of a broader feud over Kelly’s conduct, including past censure attempts and a DOJ probe into a video about refusing unlawful orders, while a court blocked parts of the retaliation and the Pentagon declined to comment on the current review.
