Yes, there is great fraud and incompetency in  MN  --  but I believe the attacks are coming from Iran or terrorists already inside this country.

Trump rejects Iran blame for Minnesota cyberattack, points finger at 'corrupt' political foe[/size]

President Donald Trump dismissed speculation that Iran was behind a cyberattack targeting dozens of water systems in Minnesota, blaming instead the state’s "corrupt governor," Tim Walz, and the state he runs.

"I just want to mention that we heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack, and they blame it on Iran," he said at the start of a Cabinet meeting Friday at Camp David, Maryland.

"I don't think so. I think I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent," Trump said. "There was a cyberattack of 30 water plants, and I would blame it on Minnesota and the governor, the corrupt governor of Minnesota. They like to say, oh, is Iran? Iran should be so lucky. Iran's got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota."

Trump’s dismissal puts him at odds with a preliminary assessment reportedly shared by U.S. and state officials and comes days after federal agencies warned that Iranian-affiliated hackers were targeting the same kinds of systems. Iranian involvement and poor cybersecurity are not mutually exclusive: previous Iranian-linked attacks on U.S. water facilities exploited internet-connected equipment protected by default or nonexistent passwords.

And he's right yet again! Misusing and absconding with tax money is the central occupation of almost every member of government bodies anywhere on this earth!

Scientists, like all discoverers of truth, have always asked, "What?” “How?” “Why?” “What if?” and “Why not?” Questioning science is science.
