Trump’s unsecured phone use may leave him vulnerable. Analysis finds West Jordan closed a portion of 93% of its meetings. Hatch was considered for Australian ambassadorship.

President Donald Trump uses two phones, one for calls and another to reach his millions of Twitter followers, but neither are secured in a way to thwart hackers intent on eavesdropping. The president has gone as long as five months without having the phone checked by security experts. It is unclear how often Trump’s call-capable phones, which are essentially used as burner phones, are swapped out. [Politico]
