Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) stressed the importance of the United States properly responding to cyberattacks, contending that the nation’s foreign adversaries are not “getting the message.”

The Florida congressman, whom President-elect Donald Trump named his national security adviser, warned that the cyberattack could open the door to other parts of the U.S. government being hacked and said the U.S. cannot “keep playing 100% defense.”
