'That's a Serious Crime': Musk Accuses Top Trump Aide of 'Breaking the Law' - Maybe Being Russian Spy

Just weeks after the public and very messy split between President Donald Trump and former DOGE chief Elon Musk, the tech CEO took things up yet another notch again in his feuds with members of the administration, trashing Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office Sergio Gor.
Musk blasted Gor earlier in the week as a snake when responding to a New York Post article which described Gor as one of the most powerful men in the Trump administration and said that despite his being tasked with vetting thousands of staffers, the top Trump aide hasnt been fully vetted himself.
Gor featured prominently in many media stories about the rift that lead to the split between Trump and Musk, and it was reported that the two clashed repeatedly. The New York Post reported that Gor went on a revenge tour against the tech CEO, who blames Gor for the torpedoed NASA nomination of a close ally to a top NASA job.
An X user shared the New York Post article on Friday, putting Gors name in scare quotes and saying that the Trump aide claims to have been born in Malta but the Maltese government has no such birth record. People who knew him in Malta called him the Russian boy,' said the post, to which Musk replied: He deliberately lied about where he was born on Federal forms. Thats a serious crime.

House Democrats are teeing up a caucus election on June 24 to fill the partys top job on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee, vacated by the late Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia, according to two people granted anonymity to speak freely.
The contest to serve as the panels ranking member and as a prominent foil to President Donald Trumps administration is shaping up to be a competitive four-way race that could test Democrats adherence to their seniority system for committee leadership and appetite to elevate younger members.
Reps. Jasmine Crockett of Texas, Stephen Lynch of Massachusetts, Kweisi Mfume of Maryland and Robert Garcia of California are all expected to run for the position.
Lawmakers have until this point generally avoided publicly campaigning for the position out of respect for Connolly, whose funeral was held Tuesday. But quiet maneuvering had already begun.

Stephen Lynch has been "Acting" at the moment.

Gerry Connolly died May 21st and his funeral was May 27th - 'Bigger than life'; Mourners remember Rep. Gerry Connolly at public viewing in Fairfax
So the supposed "election" is scheduled for a little less than a month after that. Stephen Lynch (MA-8) has been "Acting" (I expect as one of the most senior members) after Connolly stepped down due to his illness near the end of April, so it's not like no one is there in that capacity.

WTF If you dont wanna enforce laws and you dont wanna protect Citizens, then quit. Go home and hide under your fucking bed.

You could try a CT to say that Musk was feeding information back to the Russians but Ukrainian successes in the first year suggest otherwise.

(420 posts)From Times Now World: "A claim has gone viral on Sergio Gor, the Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office, which says that he could be a Russian spy. Internet personality Brian Krebs made the claim in a social media post, which went viral despite there being no official confirmation or concrete evidence. The post said that Sergio Gor's real name is Sergey Goryachev from Saratov, Russia and he could be a spy from Russia operating in the White House.
However, in a message to this journalist, Krebs said on record that he has since retracted the findings because a "critical error" was made in it."
Of course, the "critical error" could have been his reporting the Russian spy info. and then being "told" to retract the info.

(446 posts)Donald Trump. He threatens Iran but won't threaten Putin or tell him to get out of Ukraine. Every day he does things to harm America, like shutting the Voice of America, attacking institutions the Government actually has no control over, firing air traffic controllers when America hasn't had enough air traffic controllers for years, going back to when Reagan fired them all. He shut down USAID, which was established 60 years ago and which has enhanced America's reputation around the world. Donald Trump is a menace to America.

(49,201 posts)For a president who started his career bloviating about President Obama's birth certificate, you'd think he'd want Sergio Gor's birth certificate checked out.
I'm sure most of them including Melon Husk and Taco Don himself are all Russian agents or at least useful idiots. JD Vance is a useless idiot.

(74,490 posts)Elon Musk himself hinted at the stakes: he faced the real possibility of a prison sentence if Trump lost. He launched his bid for Twitterat $20 billion over market valuejust 49 days after Putin invaded Ukraine. That alone should have raised every red flag. But when the ROI is $15 trillion in mineral rights tied to Ukraine losing the war and geopolitical deals Trump could green light, it wasnt a lossit was leverage.
Its no secret Musk was in communication with Putin for over two years. He even granted Starlink access to Russian forces.

That signal came on October 30, 2024just days before the election, Musk activated 265 brand new low Earth orbit (LEO) V2 Mini satellites, each equipped with Direct-to-Cell (DTC) technology capable of processing, routing, and manipulating real-time data, including voting data, through his satellite network.
DTC doesnt require routers, towers, or a traditional SIM. It connects directly from satellite to any compatible deviceincluding embedded modems in air-gapped voting systems, smart UPS units, or unsecured auxiliary hardware.

(74,490 posts)His sacking of USAID has led to the deaths of > 300,000 people. Trump and Musk let the
food that already had been bought rot and the anti diarrhea medicines go to waste rather
than send those supplies to black people in Africa. Musk grow up and still believes in Afrikaner
Apartheid S. Africa that sees the native black peoples of Africa as the enemy.
So rigging the election in order to install a racist mentally ill criminal is good by him.

The "story" is about a continuation of the "feud", since Muskrat took to social media to reply in the affirmative, and confirm who pissed him off.
