    But the most shocking allegations came from Bakaj, who not only claimed that accounts based in Russia were using newly created DOGE usernames and passwords to access sensitive data, but also directly tied the effort to Elon Musk and his Starlink concerns, which has a relationship with the Kremlin.

    “There are two data points that I wanna point out that should give everybody pause,” Bakaj said. “The first thing, what Dan witnessed was that within 15 minutes of DOGE employees creating user accounts, i.e. Usernames and passwords, within 15 minutes of those accounts being created, somebody or something from Russia tried to log in with the right username and right passwords — that is to say — the right credentials. And that happened over 20 times.”

    “The second data point, which is really critical, is that DOGE has also been using Starlink as a means to exfiltrate data,” he continued. “What that means is that, from our understanding, Russia has a direct pipeline of information through Starlink, which means that anything going through Starlink is going to Russia.”

    And he was going to help Ukraine with giving them Starlink transceivers. Right.

      Some will. I swear, if donvict comes out with a nice little Heaven’s Gate goodie bag for the base: with donnie-branded black Nikes, a self-castration kit, and a “special” cocktail to join donnie on the magical UFO in the sky, a non-zero amount of them would crash the servers buying it up, cut off their own nuts and pound that cocktail, just to “own the libs”.

      Not even being all that facetious here - we all saw how they behaved over Covid.

      What I find funny is that one of the favourite memes of the maggots is that painting of the fall of the Roman empire, you know that weak men create weak times bullshit. Meanwhile they’re clearly the ones making that meme come true.

    Anyone with 2 connected brain cells understands that:

    Trump = Russian asset = Russian infiltration into every aspect of U.S. gov’t.

    Only a matter of time before Russia and China take over and divvy up the U.S.

      Mine are not connected. I don’t understand the winning strategy of most billionaires. How do they maintain their wealth when Russia and China take over the USA? How can the people who own the media let Trump be elected if it means that they will lose their wealth?

      • Their greed makes them think they’re untouchable. When Trump and D.C. let Putin & China do whatever they want those that can flee certainly will with all those billions saved in banks around the world.

          The billions are not in banks but in shares of US companies. Even the money, if they start to sell billions of dollars the value of the dollar will collapse, taking their wealth with them.

        You have to stand up and fight the tyranny. Id like to tell you that peaceful things or court action would help, but I think you better start reading up on the second amendment.

      It is genuinely upsetting to watch from the outside as a cold war baby who has visited the states a heap of times and is really fond of the place but this about sums it up.
