  • The Trump administration's offer to extend deferred resignations to the intelligence community poses a grave threat to U.S. national security interests, ex-officials say.

The article from MSN discusses concerns raised by former U.S. officials about the national security implications of federal government buyouts. They argue that these buyouts, particularly in sectors critical to national security like technology and infrastructure, could lead to foreign entities gaining control over vital U.S. assets. The officials highlight that while the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) reviews transactions for national security risks, the process might not be stringent enough to prevent strategic sectors from falling into potentially adversarial hands. They suggest that the government needs to enhance its oversight and possibly reform the CFIUS process to better safeguard national interests, especially in light of increasing geopolitical tensions and economic competition.
