'Big Balls' No Longer Works for the US Government

[demmiblue]

Edward “Big Balls” Coristine, one of the first technologists hired as part of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), is no longer working for the federal government, according to multiple sources.

“Edward Coristine resigned yesterday,” a White House official tells WIRED.

Coristine received full-time employment status at the GSA late last month, as reported by WIRED. As of Tuesday afternoon, his Google Suite account with the General Services Administration (GSA) was no longer active, according to a source with direct knowledge. His name also no longer appears on a White House contact list of current DOGE employees on the federal payroll maintained by a senior administration official, the official says.

In May, Coristine appeared to be attending regular meetings with departments and agencies, including a May 5 meeting with the Commerce Department to discuss Trump’s golden Visa, a May 15 meeting to discuss implementing the DOGE agenda at the military, and a May 22 meeting with the Treasury Department. He was listed on a report regarding the GSA workforce on June 10. That report comes out once a month.

I wonder what he’s going to do with all the personal data he probably squirreled away.

1. the only question is did he steal it for personal or musk/corporate use?????

a sane government might monitor his internet/dark web for a while.

2. Why do you think they installed Starlink at the White House?

Circumvent any eyes or restrictions.

While I’m glad he and Eloon are gone, this is some scary stuff because we have no idea what they have and where it went.

7. and we have no one on the payroll to catch them or to restore order

3. He stole enough from the US govt, he never has to work again.

He could have stolen millions of dollars worth of data.
And also signed up for one of every govt program and paycheck he could find.
Embedded in the US govt federal for the rest of his life.

anyone know who the "Gorilla" is?????

13. General Michael Kurilla, nicknamed The Gorilla, is a Trump humper who was in the

running for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff for Trump’s 2nd term. He is commander of Centcom.

On 10 June 2025, during the negotiations between the U.S. and Iran on its nuclear program, Kurilla said at a congressional hearing that he prepared a "wide range" of military options for President Donald Trump if negotiations fail. Kurilla has called for a military response against Iran following the Iran–Israel war; his role in the conflict was considered to be unusually significant, with U.S. defence secretary Pete Hegseth seen as deferring to Kurilla during the conflict.

As of November 2024, Kurilla was under investigation after shoving an airman upon being asked to take his seat and buckle up for his safety during a flight to Israel.

Maybe a class action lawsuit can be brought.
