Between nominating a leader, getting them confirmed by the Senate, and hiring 50 new employees, it'll take a while to fill out the new bureau even after it formally launches. And as I said, that's just the beginning of actually upgrading US cyber diplomacy work. Long road ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

I've been following the long saga of this bureau ever since @C_Painter left State in 2017 and rumors swirled that Rex Tillerson was closing his office. When Tillerson confirmed this, bipartisan Hill backlash forced him to not only back down but propose *elevating* cyber @ State. — PolitiTweet.org
