Summary
Elon Musk’s DOGE website mistakenly published classified intelligence data, including personnel and budget details for the National Reconnaissance Office.
The breach sent Defense Department officials scrambling, as the NRO’s headcount and budget are typically classified. Intelligence aides confirmed the leak is problematic under current security standards.
Concerns have also been raised about DOGE’s inexperienced staff. The White House has not commented, and the site was later hacked.
Develop heart attack gun and extensive ways to fabricate blackmail. Only use it against peaceful socialists like MLK.
Well yeah, because peaceful socialists don’t generally go around developing heart attack guns, their enemies do.
ARREST MUSK
How is this confusing?
Arrest his conspirators. Separate them. Get them to give up their international contact.
No one is as colossally stupid as these kids are. Unemployment is the least they need to worry about.
It’s not confusing at all, many of us agree. But who enforces that? The Justice Dept, led by Trump’s other stooge Pam Bondi.
Over half the country voted for this. Over half the country thinks he’s doing Lord’s work and is finally making America great again. He’s not getting arrested unless he does something way, way worse than this
Less than 2/3 of the country voted and less than half of them voted for Trump. Don’t give folks a mandate/credit they didn’t earn.
A non vote was a vote for fascism
You’re totally right. I shouldve said that the majority of voters voted for this circus and from what I can tell still very much support it.
He still came out under 50% of the popular vote. It was close, but they didn’t win a majority of voters.
But, yes. Lots of folks cheering for things getting worse.
Thank you for this correct framing.
This is the comment to read, people.
“We’re wringing our hands as hard as we can”
" problematic under current security standards."
Is there an understatement of the year award.
It’s slightly troublesome that not only were a bunch of 20ish year olds, at least one in his past was fired for posting company secrets on discord… not only are able to walk into any government agency and get classified information… but are also, notably posting them to the public. (and that’s just what we see them doing publicly… lord knows if anything is traveling through any hidden channels etc…
That’s “problematic” in the way 9/11 was a “troubling event”.
You know, when it’s a regular citizen doing this prosecutors will have a warrant for arrest signed, even if it has to be done in the middle of the night on a weekend, and have a strike team arrest and detain those responsible within literal (really, literal) hours. Why does this not happen NOW?? (I know the answer.)
Well you see, legally, it’s complicated.
The only people who can go after him…work for Trump.
The people who can go after Trump are Congress. A Congress that is controlled by the party that Trump is the head of, and that head is attached directly to its ass, with absolutely no spine in between. A truly majestic creature, really.
The people who can stop him on the meantime are the courts. Which he packed with loyalists. Not just the supreme court but also many lower federal courts as well.
That’s thanks to the duodenum of the congress-beast, Mitch McConnel, who held up so many federal judge appointments during Obama’s last years in office because it was “too close to an election”. But then shoved in a new judge when RBG died two months before the 2020 election before she was even cold.
This is what most sane countries would call a “constitutional crisis”.
WHY DO THEY HAVE CLASSIFIED DATA?
That’s not something you just give access to because someone says they want it and they’re high up in the command structure.
Because the people who objected to them not having the clearance to view the data were put on leave.
[Musk’s] comments come after the administration placed two top security chiefs at USAID on leave after they refused to turn over classified material in restricted areas to Musk’s government-inspection teams, a current and a former U.S. official told The Associated Press on Sunday
Jesus fucking Christ.
Does anybody else feel like we’re all nearing a collective psychotic break? Like, am I crazy, or is everything suddenly fucking crazy?
It’s not you, it’s fucking crazy.
Look, War Thunder isn’t going to develop itself.
Best comment.
These systems are typically air-gapped so to be able to acquire it is a particularly bad fuck-up.
That being said information from unclassed systems can become classified when put in a single place/file for easy consumption.
Either way someone really, REALLY fucked up here.
Either way someone really, REALLY fucked up here.
I wouldn’t say it’s someone as much as it’s something.
Neither of the Felonius Fuckheads have ever faced actual consequences for their actions. The entire judicial system has fucked up by teaching them that they’re above the systems of checks and balances designed to hold them accountable and prevent them from making unilateral changes to fundamental aspects of the government operates.
And so, Elon just casually walked in wherever he pleased, caused chaos and disruption with his cronies, and walked out leaving behind servers exfiltrating anything they could get their hands on.
Because trump works for Putin. It couldn’t be any clearer.
So they can feed it to their fellow Tech Bros and probably Russia while they are at it.
worrying officials who proceed to do nothing about it
Maybe now the intelligence community will do their thing and none of us will have to worry about these dipshits anymore.
Can we start a rumor that Musk wants to shut down Boeing? He won’t last a month.
Lockheed Martin. Half the US military runs on their products. They’re so integrated that the military basically can’t afford to change contractors for any of it.
Yeah but Boeing has more experience in offing people and making it look like a suicide.
I’m smashing the x button to doubt that
A Boeing whistleblower the day before he finally got his big day in court (something he worked towards for years) “committed suicide” in his car the day before he was going to testify.
Forget the Epstein conspiracy shit, guys going to prison for sex stuff involving minors kill themselves all the time since they know they’re going to have a bad time in prison. An engineer trying to expose his former employer for their unsafe practices the day before he’s going to finally get what he wanted? Wayyyyyy more suspicious than the Epstein stuff.
There was another Boeing whistleblower that also “committed suicide”.
But sure, maybe it’s all a weird coincidence that everyone that tries to blow the whistle on Boeing turns up dead before they can testify.
I probably should have been more clear what I was doubting, I don’t doubt for a second Boeing would pull this shit, I just doubt they’ve done it more than Lockheed. Lockheed has their fingers in way more pies.
While we can hope for that, you gotta remember, the intelligence agencies are inherently pro-authoritarian, and anti-egalitarian (probably spelled wrong).
The USSR wasn’t the actual enemy for the last century. Communism was the enemy. The entire defense industry was built up to fight the idea of communism. It just helped that the USSR called themselves communists.
I don’t think for a second that any really meaningful classified information can be leaked without immediate consequences. And that is usually troop movements or locations.
At this point I’ll believe anyone in the USA is worried when we see tanks at the Capitol.
Until then it’s impossible anymore to believe this isn’t approved by the nation.
Their Shock Doctrine approach (thank you Naomi Klein) has been incredibly successful. Reading about history in my youth, I now understand why evil prevailed then as it is now. I was looking back at times of immense tyranny and thinking “why didn’t everyone just rise up against them!?” Some are fully onboard, others partially, but many are detached, struggling to survive. The rest of us do what we can, when we can, but disjointed and unorganized.
It’s a whole lot of “please will somebody DO something!”, but the modern Democrats are not an opposition party, ever. The news media is complicit as well. There are a handful of judges and attorneys who are doing their damndest, but this is no longer a country of laws (for the rich and powerful).
The country is geographically massive and your average citizen is both poor and uneducated, both politically and otherwise, by Western standards. Now that large swaths of worker’s livelihoods are being devastated they may have more time on their hands.
I won’t hold my breath for “Occupy Washington”, but when the next movement comes it will be met with intense and violent opposition. Hopefully a silver lining may be a wake up call, far too late.
I shudder to think of what comes next as it has been festering and fomenting within this country my entire lifetime. The sophisticated propaganda machine and socioeconomic warfare has kept our citizens dumb, divided, and despondent, I pray something beneficial rises from the ashes.
There is no single answer to your question. My aim was to provide a contemporaneous snapshot of what I am experiencing. As I have been observing our descent into flagrant fascism, and telling anyone who would listen, for the better part of a century. And I hate it with every fiber of my being.
I’m so fucking tired of everyone blaming the Democrats.
Trump has a 46% approval rating. ** 46% of the American people support explicitly this. **
They don’t have the right to perform a coup without the consent of the people. And you, right now, are saying you don’t consent to their rule because they haven’t taken it by force. (What force?)
Are you aware of how unpopular any impeachment typically is? If his approval rating is 46%, impeachment won’t happen.
We’re going to have to wait for things to get bad enough that we all start to actually suffer in our lives, outside of just seeing it coming by reading the news.
Seeing the train isn’t enough. We have to wait for it to hit us.
Americans are resisting, for instance lot’s of people are quitting their jobs, I’ve heard about at least 3.
Sarcasm aside, I congratulate the people who refuse to aid Trump, and actually do resist. But it just doesn’t seem to be a lot.
Maybe it’s too early, but I sure hope that some real resistance will emerge, and resist and prevent MAGA in their attempt to destroy democracy completely.I mean I saw armored vehicles and armed guards at the Georgia Capitol building in Atlanta during the last few elections
So this means that every single bit of data they’ve already collected has been openly transmitted to Russia and our other geopolitical adversaries. Pack it up folks, we’re cooked
One South African immigrant has been allowed to destroy America
illegal immigrant
Isn’t his hiring dei?
What should worry you more is Elon that Nazi fuck has your data.
Fucking morons
wait, did they post the location and number of all of our spy satellites?
