I was a communications officer (Signal) in the army and can confirm with 100% certainty that the military has been in charge of WH IT since at least 2016 as I had a soldier selected for an assignment there which required some engagement from me as his commander. I can't tell you much beyond that because I just don't know, but the military has been in charge of WH digital comms since before Trump.
I will verify this with a friend who was both DOD and WHCA. I think MIL has always controlled WH IT. Will advise.
Verification would be great!
I don't think so, but even if it turns out that it was always controlled by the WH, then the question would be: Why??

Very cool. I️ was Signal corp, too. Enlisted. Miss those days.
Former Signal here. Ft. Gordon all day.
