Say what now?

NEW — 19-year-old DOGE engineer Edward Coristine turns out to be the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov, who played a role in a sprawling 1980s espionage saga.

Oh deary me.

lepetersseattle.bsky.social•89 days ago

Click bait. His grandfather was a mole inside the KGB. Turning over in his grave about his stupid, naive grandkid no doubt.

insidiouslygrim.bsky.social•90 days ago

It’s like living in an absurdist movie directed by surkov.

lindaliveyourlife.bsky.social•89 days ago

The movie script is writing itself.

lisa4g4g.bsky.social•90 days ago

The fact that nothing surprises me anymore is becoming bothersome to me. I feel like it signals that I'm being worn down.

pjmeow.bsky.social•87 days ago

This is what an ignorant ass president will get you.

pjmeow.bsky.social•88 days ago

WTF...

fluffyyellowdog.bsky.social•89 days ago

This hollywood script would never make it past 1st reading for being so unbelievable and preposterously stupid!

seahorse61.bsky.social•89 days ago

Someone grab that fire extinguisher and put this fire out! 🔥

wellhellno.bsky.social•89 days ago

OMG. He’s gone full RUSSIAN. This is insane, and the judges won’t halt it!!!

alreadydidthis.bsky.social•89 days ago

His grandfather was executed in Russia for being a double agent (KGB agent working FOR the USA). This is still concerning because they felt the need to hide it.

kmh40.bsky.social•89 days ago

That tracks.

toxictrips19.bsky.social•89 days ago

Totally.. not surprised at all

hay-for-tttt.bsky.social•90 days ago

this article upset me. because the title is really misleading. you read the article and it seems like this dude's grandfather was a soviet spy but then turned on the soviets and was a 'good guy' So by the you get done, you really don't have the sense that the headline is accurate and then it

hay-for-tttt.bsky.social•90 days ago

keeps getting shared and people are not reading the article. Sure it's salacious in the fact that he's connected. but no one cares a bit about Elon's REAL and tangible connection to his family grandparents AND parents who are all proven traitorous racists. they certainly won't care about this.

Sherrilyn I just heard you on Katie Phang and my thought is, Your voice is ever a solid steady and necessary bell ringing out to preserve, protect and defend all of our democracy. I honor you.

Family Business?

jones1949.bsky.social•89 days ago

How much of our personal data has he exploited already?? Commie punk!!

vruprightman.bsky.social•88 days ago

The number of these TechBro/Oligarch/Dark Enlightenment guys with unusual connections to both Russia and Epstein is frightening!
One big circle!

cynlawless.bsky.social•89 days ago

wonder if Martynov knew Krasnov

jefiner68.bsky.social•89 days ago

Okay, that's out there.

mrwilson007.bsky.social•90 days ago

dutchtreat.bsky.social•90 days ago

This season's writing is getting preposterous.

plunderdog903.bsky.social•90 days ago

Sure... why not?

lovesaloophole.bsky.social•90 days ago

Shake any tree in this admin and a Russian falls out

krisve.bsky.social•89 days ago

There are zero plot holes in this story. If you ask why is a kid with no accounting skills doing “audits”? There’s an answer: It’s a KGB son’s grandson, of course.

bingemovies.bsky.social•89 days ago

Krasnov

Wouldn’t be surprised if, as with Trump, Musk is getting staffing referrals from Putin’s team.

patriotclyde.bsky.social•87 days ago

Did Putin pick Musk's gang of thieves? It wouldn't surprise me. Musk has been pretty chummy w/Putin lately!

Trump has invited Putin's trolls to collect USA classified info! I guess Trump doesn't have to steal classified info to sell to highest bidder anymore!

imaginaryerika.bsky.social•89 days ago

Only the best russian assets.

soundsgoodtome.bsky.social•89 days ago

NOTE:

His grandfather spied FOR the us and was excecut by the soviets

(it’s written shortly after the headline)

2theinfinitepower.bsky.social•90 days ago

Nice! Ole broccoli hair has a pedigree in being a traitor.

tlsimm1.bsky.social•89 days ago

get him out of there until he can be properly vetted......

valgothere.bsky.social•87 days ago

I would fact check this one — I can’t believe these DOGE nerds don’t need college degrees. Elon seems like an enormous school snob.

rocinante1.bsky.social•89 days ago

I don't like saying it, but there's a lot of evidence that evilness is genetic.

marisaartista.bsky.social•90 days ago

Oh the chronicles of “Bigballs”!

gaylechrist.bsky.social•89 days ago

Small World!!!!

packergal.bsky.social•89 days ago

Holy Hannah... this kids' unfettered access will not stop terrorizing us.

lauraleeb.bsky.social•89 days ago

This is why Musk didn’t want them doxxed. It’s not over concern for their safety, he doesn’t want everyone to find out his “DOGE” bros have STRONG Russian ties.

sarahskiles.bsky.social•90 days ago

This reboot of The Americans sucks

vruprightman.bsky.social•88 days ago

The reboot goes back at least 12 years, and was called RAGE before it was DOGE. Here is the guy that came up with this, about 14:50, you'll see what Elon is doing right now! Musk is his buddy! https://youtu.be/ZluMysK2B1E?si=Wbemns-Qhe6x33B2

peachncrnomicoblr.bsky.social•89 days ago

Right? At least those characters had their reasons for doing what they did and honestly thought they were acting in good faith, even if they did some stupid things along the way.

sarahskiles.bsky.social•88 days ago

Thread muted. Too many notifications :)

ginasmithrodriguez.bsky.social•89 days ago

And I learned from the comments section, he may be the author of this post, which was promptly erased.

minpinmom.bsky.social•90 days ago

His family must be so proud

d-times-3.bsky.social•90 days ago

So it’s kinda like the show The Americans, if the girl grew up to become a coder and hitch on to a narcissistic, ketamine loving, South African billionaire with a lust for power.

hinebd.bsky.social•89 days ago

Although his grandfather was executed in 1987. More details needed, for sure, like: is he a fluent Russian speaker?

gigiwrites.bsky.social•90 days ago

Well, I'm sure this is just a coincidence, totally innocent, nothing to see here

pixiesherry.bsky.social•90 days ago

This is my shocked face 🙄

aleksnotx.bsky.social•89 days ago

If someone wrote this as a novel, the editor would yell at them for making it too ridiculous.

bulldogmom.bsky.social•89 days ago

I hope this young man understands that Elon and Trump will let him take the fall when the shit hits the fan.
