Insurrectionists and Militia Members and Big Balls - Oh MY! Meet Some New Musk/Trump Underlings [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2025-02-03

It seems that Musk acolytes weren’t enough for the President Musk and figurehead Fanta Fuhrer regime. Now, it is truly time to release the dregs of society and put them in positions of authority.

It is a matter of putting the foxes in charge of the hen house now. The more unqualified the person, the better odds that person has of landing a position in the junta.

We truly live in scary times, and every minute brings more bad news. Let’s see the type of people they are recruiting below the fold.

The “DOGE” Braintrust

Let’s start with the young men that are accessing government systems on the behalf of President Musk. These man babies are between the ages of 19 and 24. They are 100% loyal to President Musk and are almost all linked to his companies.

x The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

x Contrary to some info I've seen, 19-yr-old Doge staffer "BigBalls" Edward Coristine did not delete his X account, it's just renamed and is private. Wired reported that govt tech workers had to defend their work to the Neuralink intern in an Office Space-esque scene. / more for Canadians

These people seem to be immune from lawbreaking and in fact are being protected in DC by a rogue prosecutor. People resisting this hostile takeover risk arrest and imprisonment assuming they aren’t shitcanned first.

x Interim US attorney Ed Martin, whose office just fired a bunch of J6 prosecutors, is now telling Elon Musk they will prosecute anyone who "targets" DOGE employees. Presumably this is in response to a Wired article naming some, and a protest at OPM that occurred yesterday.

Militia Adjacent Joe Kent

I’ve written about Joe Kent a couple of times. He faced off against Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in the last two elections — losing narrowly both times.

Tonight, figurehead Cheeto Caligula nominated him to be the Director of the National Counter Terrorism Center. That’s right — a man with militia domestic terrorist ties is now running the counter terrorism division.

x Joe Kent, the guy Trump is nominating to lead his counterterrorism division, employed Proud Boys and Patriot Front members, met with Nick Fuentes and sat down with a neo-Nazi YouTuber for an interview.

I’m sure he will do a great job looking the other way when his Proud Boys friends and other far-right thugs are unleashed on the resisters. That is if resisting isn’t classified as counter terrorism itself!

What a truly horrific nomination!

The January 6th Participant Pete Marocco

To rub salt in the wounds of everyone standing up for USAID today, Secretary of State Marco Rubio decided to tap Pete Marocco to lead what is left of the agency. This man participated in the 1/6 insurrection and even illegally entered the US Capitol building through a broken window.

Maybe we shouldn’t have confirmed Rubio 99-0? He’s still the most sane pick so far out of all of the cabinet nominees, but that bar can be found in Hell right now.

I don’t know why Rubio bothered to appoint him other than to wind down what is left of this once proud organization.

The Conspiracy Theorist Darren Beattie

A top State Department post went to a wholly unqualified person who spouts January 6th conspiracies and other white supremacist theories. Darren Beatie is a piece of work! He has especially targeted Black people through praising a modern eugenicist and claiming that they should “bend the knee” to the Tangerine Terror because their origins are from “shithole countries”.

x Beattie has “praised Dr. James Watson, the founder of modern genetics who later suggested Black people were less intelligent than White people, as the ‘greatest living American scientist.’” www.cnn.com/2025/02/03/p...

He’ll be great on the diplomatic front. Believe me!

Sean Parnell the Wife Beater

The person now in charge of communications from the Pentagon is a known wife beater and lost custody of his children for being abusive. He’s run for public office (PA-17, PA-SEN) a couple of times but his political career was cut short when the truth was found out.

It seems that being a creep towards women is an absolute requirement for a position in the President Musk/Figurehead Trump regime.

x Trump just announced a guy for chief Pentagon spokesman whose wife testified that he abused and choked her. He lost custody of his kids.

Nothing says communication failure like this nomination.

The nominees for the underling positions are likely to get worse as time rolls on. Given how we’ve rolled over so far and had Democrats vote for every nominee except for Hegseth and Vought I have no faith that this people will be stopped.

We truly are screwed.
