    Every day more of their corrupt illegal treasonous crimes come out and nothing happens. There’s nothing “shocking” about it anymore.

    Yes, this is happening. Meanwhile also this is happening: US office that counters foreign disinformation is being eliminated, say officials - a coincidence?


    Aside:

    “around ten gigabytes of data are, quote, the equivalent of a full stack of encyclopedias worth if someone printed these files as hard copy documents.”

    On one hand I hate dumb comparisons like that, on the other hand it’s really important for people to understand how little storage actual information, i.e. text/numbers, requires. The whole Bible is less than 5 megabytes - each and every picture you snap on your phone fits it twice! Google’s daily dose of your personal user surveillance is probably just a few kilobytes, and is gone around the world and back while your video is still loading. In an internet dominated by high throughput video streaming people need to understand how little storage is required to get perfect data sets. 10GB just might fit all social security records of all US citizens (excl. media of course).

      That comparison is way off. Plain text works out to about 677,000 pages per gigabyte and regular printer paper is alot 0.1 mm thick, so 10 GB of data - 6.7 million pages - would make a stack of paper two thirds of a kilometre high.

      Even if we’re talking image files of scanned text, you’re in the neighborhood of 15,000 pages per gigabyte which is probably in the neighborhood of an encyclopedia set, making 10 GB roughly equal to ten encyclopedia sets…

    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.

    The second the Treasury was compromised it was 100% over. The government is basically compromised beyond repair. The entire digital infrastructure is infected it should be considered compromised.

    Secure erase and full reinstall.

    “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.

    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.”

      Threatening him directly. “Talk about this or else.”

      I love Dan. A true IT nerd hero! His explanations are plausible. And, his lawyer:

      “There are others in other agencies who have witnessed things similar to this.”

      Let that sink in.

    There’s nothing I can do about it, so it looks like no one will do anything with this.
