https://www.cisa.gov/safecom/NCSWIC This agency is in charge of securing the elections. NCSWIC means National Council of Statewide Interoperability Coordinators. NCSWIC also refers to Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming. The probability that two 6 letters acronyms to be the same is 1/26^6 (26 letters of the alphabet in 6 positions). This is 1/308 915 776. It's still possible this is a coincidence but I would not bet one penny on it. Is it enough to convince you already ?

But lets get serious ...the op's math makes no sense and the agency was not started by Trump.....and SURELY does not PROVE a sting operation because NCSWIC is a match....dont get mad and downvote me for talking logic...lol
I hate to let real info get in the way of this discussion but......
Established by the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in July 2010, the National Council of Statewide Interoperability Coordinators (NCSWIC) supports Statewide Interoperability Coordinators (SWIC) from the 56 states and territories, by developing products and services to assist them with leveraging their relationships, professional knowledge, and experience with public safety partners involved in interoperable communications at all levels of government.
You're right, my bad, just corrected it.
It's n factorial:
The number of ways of arranging n unlike objects in a line is n! (pronounced ‘n factorial’). n! = n × (n – 1) × (n – 2) ×…× 3 × 2 × 1
That would be correct with cards for instance, because if you place a queen of heart, you cannot do it twice, but letters are differents. You could repeat the letter C three times, so I still think my calculations are correct. But now that I think about it the probability that these letters would be in that order, I think, would be (1/(26626526426326226*1)), which would amount to 1/ 222 419 358 720. Tell me if I am wrong.
You’re right that it’s not factorial.
Also in calculating probability we could (just toying around with this statistics problem now) include the chance of two acronyms having identical lengths. Most of these would be length 3 to 6, so that’s a factor four you could include. One in 26^6 x 4 = 1.2 billion.
