It would be funny if the future of America didn't depend on it.

The people at the top over there are not the sharpest elevators in the basket.  But hey, "lesser of two evil morons" right?

Freedom password, as it was the first password I ever made in computer lab in 2nd grade, IIRC. Definitely sad, though, for Podest to do that.

He should've taken the same class.

For about two decades during the cold war, the code for all US minuteman silos was set at "00000000". I'm glad to see the upper echelons of the US have advanced basically not all in regards to security.

Christ, I'm more careful with emails than freaking former White House Chief of Staff.

With that level of carelessness, I'm surprised their bank accounts haven't been emptied and their credit cards maxed yet.

While there is some truth to the zeroes thing, there was never a time when a rogue person (or even small group) could by him/themselves launch a nuke from a Minutemen silo.  There were (and are) several layers of security.  The leaving the nukes on a B52 then flying it from Minot ND to Barksdale LA without telling, you know, the pilots or Barksdale!.....a couple of years ago was a bigger breach of security.

I love these weird stories about nukes. the best near one was the time the Air Force once dropped nukes on North Carolina by mistake, and if one switch had been facing the other way, I imagine the entire 20th century would have been vastly different.

Is that the one they never found?  In a bay or something?

I think that was because noted crazy person Curtis LeMay was at the peak of his influence, so SAC had loads of airborne alert planes that made the risk of accidents higher.

Indeed.

I walk past a lovely plaque for the man and through a building named after him every work day.  We're moving buildings in a couple of years and I'm sure the new one will not be named after him.

Isn't a nuclear warhead or bomb able to detonate only if you follow the precise procedure or arming it, etc.?
