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.

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

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

The movie script is writing itself.

White southern conservatives have not changed their ideology in 200 years. They are still anti-government, anti-civil rights, anti-immigration, anti-woman, and very pro gun. The problem in America has always been white, southern conservatives.

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

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

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

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.

Totally.. not surprised at all

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•11 hours 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.

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.

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

NOTE:

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

(it’s written shortly after the headline)

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

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

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.

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•10 hours ago

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

gigiwrites.bsky.social•11 hours ago

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

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

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