Summary
Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old DOGE staffer recently promoted to a senior adviser role in the State Department, is reportedly the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov.
Martynov was executed in the Soviet Union after being exposed as an FBI informant. Coristine, an alleged former cybercriminal, previously worked in the General Services Administration and now has potential access to sensitive diplomatic data.
Concerns have been raised over his background and apparent lack of a security check.
The situation fuels fears about foreign influence in U.S. government operations.
It’s pretty clear that japanese internment camps were illegal and morally reprehensible. There is a vast difference between not allowing someone to take a tiny number of highly secure jobs with the government entirely legally and imprisoning people and herding them into a camp like animals contravening their rights and the law. It’s not a slippery slope its standing on the edge of the grand canyon and jumping in.
“It’s a matter of national security that your kind isn’t allowed to work here.”
Wherein your kind is literally ideologically AND the grandchild of our literal enemy as opposed to a certain skin color
Slavic people are an ethnicity. Not one as “readable” as east asians or african americans, but they are.
Again, their actions define them as shitheads who enable Trump’s bullshit, not some tainted DNA shit. If they were German or Japanese or Chinese that matters equally as much here. Someone isn’t an enemy to America and the lives of our citizens because they are related to a Russian agency that hasn’t existed in 30 years.
oh no somebody think of all the POK (People of KGB)!! What are you smoking? Non-Americans have more often than not some ties to some foreign secret police? Your take sounds unironically more racist then whatever the fuck you’re against.
“I don’t think someone’s family defines them, their actions do.”
“YOU’RE THE RACIST HERE!”
again point to the sentence where I claim the thing you are mad about
