🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

in fairness to the market no one could have guessed that a nearly 80 year-old ex-President with a messianic self-certainty and the hyperfixation of a toddler would enact a policy he spent each and every day of a two-year campaign promising to enact!
CNBC reacts right after Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff announcement: "And the market reaction after hours -- I’ve never seen anything like it. This -- I think, fair to say -- is worse than the worst-case scenario of the tariffs that many in the market expected the president to impose."

Thanks to everyone who has newly reached out in response to the below. So many criminal acts, so much wreckage. So many attacks on those the who fight for the well-being and safety of the American people. And even one DOGEr, who knew? What have you seen? What do the people need to know?
Are you that discontented DOGE staffer? It might be time. You can reach out to me on Signal at joshtpm.99 (I'm not like Mike Waltz; I know how to use it.) You can also get me at joshtpm at protonmail dot com. Are you a federal worker with information I need to hear? I want to hear from you too.

I will mortgage my house to support the first politician who promised to rain hellfire on white collar crime the way we do on weed dealers and undocumented workers.
Elon Musk has been a walking SEC violation for a decade and no one cared. The entire Trump era could have been avoided if the US took white collar crime anywhere near as seriously as it does low level drug crime.
wired.com WIRED @wired.com · Mar 29
On a 2023 earnings call, Elon Musk boasted that Tesla had bagged “over 1 million” Cybertruck reservations and that “demand is off the charts.”

So why has the company still sold less than 50,000 trucks since customer deliveries began 14 months ago?

These are the lies billionaires tell us so they can become trillionaires.
If you think companies will give us a 2 day work week instead of forcing us to more than double our output over 5 days, or pay us a lot less, then you don’t understand capitalism.

Israel just committed *the largest child massacre in its history*, according to Haaretz. Two hundred Palestinian children murdered in a single day, with direct support from the US and UK, and zero outrage from Western media. What stage of barbarism is this...

This is what private equity did to Red Lobster. They sold the land the franchises sat on to a holding company, then started charging each restaurant rent. Unsurprisingly Red Lobster went bankrupt.

if I were writing stories about the gov "firing thousands of probationary workers" I would probably rewrite as "firing thousands of new hires -- who are often on a status called "probation" --" because I think the general understanding of "probation" is "in trouble for something they did"

I mean I think the obvious answer is that no, Americans have no idea what this means for their lives

the "oh shit what have we done" turn we're all hoping for is simply not going to happen until the material ramifications become clear

we are going to have to touch the stove
Really strange watching the American government become hostile to Canada, western Europe, and Mexico in order to cozy up to the dictatorships of eastern Europe.

Do Americans even know this is happening? Do they have any idea what this means for their lives?
