Computer hackers affiliated with Russia breached sensitive parts of the White House digital system, CNN reported Tuesday, citing U.S. officials aware of an ongoing investigation.

These hackers accessed “sensitive information such as real-time non-public details of the president’s schedule,” according to CNN. And although this information is not strictly classified, it is still valuable to foreign agencies, the report said.  

Ben Rhodes, deputy national security advisor to President Barack Obama, told CNN that the White House is “increasingly concerned” about cyber threats, but said it did not believe its classified systems were compromised.

  1. “These hackers accessed “sensitive information such as real-time non-public details of the president’s schedule,” according to CNN.”

    His bath house schedule?

  2. His dates with Reggy Love? Or as #1 said his schedule with Rahm Emannuel at the Chicago bath house membership they share?

  3. Bahahahahaha!! Russian hackers. Boy, what will they think of next?

    No wait! It was Tsarnev. He did this because he’s Russian or Ukrainian or who cares, it doesn’t matter what he is. We have no proof of anything, but he just fits the profile and the propaganda for this. Yea, that’s it. His trial happened today so that makes him a prime suspect. It’s a retaliatory strike for convicting him. Yea, that’s it. 🙄

    Hey, I can write fake stories all day, too. 😉
