She's wrong to imply that if only SolarWinds had followed her iPad password policy, the attack would have been stopped. And she's mistaken about Orion's use case, which has nothing to do with email security.

And while Russia conducted this attack, I'm tired of the Russian scarecrow: SolarWinds' job here has nothing to do with Russia.

But mostly I'm jaded by ambitious SoCal pols neglecting their districts to score easy points on national issues.

I don't think she was implying that at all. She was highlighting that if they couldn't even do a basic thing like employing stronger, more complex passwords - how could they defend against Russians reading DoD emails.
