One Roberts clerk, one former Gorsuch clerk, and one future Gorsuch clerk. All working for DOGE to help Musk usurp the government.

Like I wrote earlier today, the courts are not going to stop this.
NEW: ProPublica has identified three lawyers with elite establishment credentials who’ve joined the DOGE effort. Two of their names haven’t been previously reported as working for the Elon Musk-led initiative.

Here’s what we know about them:
The Elite Lawyers Working for Elon Musk’s DOGE Include Former Supreme Court Clerks
Much attention has been paid to the young Silicon Valley engineers working for Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, but the group has also hired high-powered legal talent.

⚠️ DOGE staffer Edward Coristine was fired for leaking info from a data-security firm. He later bragged he retained access to the firm’s system.

He was also on law enforcement radar for communicating in an online chat room with an alleged hacker under investigation.

President Xi didn’t even bother to fake giving him something. Trump just quietly surrendered in the dead of night.

Mother jones actually broke this story. The Washington Post failed to mention that, and in fact, took credit for the scoop.
SCOOP: Kash Patel took $25,000 from a production company with ties to Russia propaganda activity to appear in an anti-FBI docuseries. He did not respond to questions about this.

No vetting at all, no background checks, and then blanket security clearances for all.

Agencies holding national security sensitive material are presumably thinking very hard right now about what material they're going to leave behind in the files on Jan 20...

Thank you to @maddow.bsky.social for covering the bill that would give Trump unchecked power to shut down any organization that stands in his way. Will Democrats make it easier for Trump to pursue his authoritarian agenda or fight back? Call your representative ASAP: indivisible.org/resource/tel...

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...”

...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

The point of bringing in Hegseth, Gaetz and Gabbard is to burn it all to the ground. Senate: You must recognize this and stop it.
