Summary
A vulnerability in the new OPM email server allowed anyone to send mass messages to federal employees, exposing poor cybersecurity.
Over 13,000 NOAA staff received spam and vulgar messages, including crude jokes about Trump and bizarre newsletters, causing widespread outrage.
The breach resulted from an overhaul led by Elon Musk that installed underqualified personnel and an insecure in-house system, sparking a class-action lawsuit for cybersecurity failures.
The unsecured system also inadvertently revealed ties to Project 2025 and a plan to gather government employee data as Trump’s loyalists reshape federal operations.
And true to form, our boy Klip exposed the malignant incompetence while taking the opportunity to advertise his substack 😄
They’re firing Inspector Generals? Damn, thats like, expediting the destruction of the federal government.
Edit: for those who don’t know, IGs are independent officials within fed and state agencies that conduct investigations, audits or inspections to employees or agencies.
They can’t even do a coup without fucking half of it up.
Because they don’t have to worry about fuck ups. Americans are gonna do jack shit about it. Otherwise something would have already been done.
Not true. The Democrats will form a committee to discuss language to be placed in a letter to the administration, they may even call a news conference to state that they are disappointed in what is happening and if it continues they may have to do more drastic measures like actually sending the letter that the committee put together.
That’s the frightening part … either they are idiots that are completely messing everything up including their own plans … or they are following a well orchestrated plan of disruption and chaos to gain control of everything and everyone
Either way, they are undoing a lot of things that will take years or decades to bring back

It’s much easier to fight a enemy that is confused, disorganized, and fighting amongst itself. This is by design.

Incompetence is one of the hallmark qualities of a fascist government.
Hey, people think Hitler’s Germany was a success story until he started to loose the war but it was actually a clusterfuck right from the beginning and doomed to fail from the start.
I mean, he loosed war pretty early, so it wasn’t that long according to what you say.
Now now… incompetence is the hallmark of any government
I’m betting on stage 1 underpants gnomes.
“Flood the zone with shit” strategy.

This is what the accelerationists didn’t account for.

And y’all let him have access to government.
The world will burn from climate and war because of American stupidity.
They rigged the vote and Trump threw him in there. How did WE do this exactly?
Unless you are suggesting that actual election fraud took place, these guys got democratically elected.
From the outside it seems like this is what the majority of your voting public wanted, and the majority of your adult population were fine with it and chose not to vote. If it were the first time I would consider it as revealing a major flaw in your political system, but this is the second time, non consecutively, that this has happened. That just looks like this is representative of your people. Sorry.
It is. Im tired of people making excuses for the idiots in this country. Idgaf if you thought the Democrats were terrible- theyre clearly far better than these fascists. But enough people decided it wasn’t worth their time anyhow.
Fuck them and fuck all of us because this is who we are.
You’re not wrong.
Imagine if the Dems won and we never experienced this timeline, and it was another boring and mediocre administration.
Then it would have just postponed the inevitable.
It’s the “what have you done for me lately, Eddy?”. The last election was “super duper important guys trust us”. And it absolutely was. And it was a remarkably average presidency. And that’s a good thing.
The majority of the people either have absolutely no understanding of how our government actually functions in the real world (and this includes both the people saying “why aren’t the Dems doing anything” and the people who said “vote third party”), or actually want to watch the world burn.
Basically, they FAFO’d. They had their fun in the first half, and now they’ve got us all trapped in the second half.
There is no way within the system as it stands now to even begin to turn towards normalcy for at least two years.
Buckle up, kids.
And I hope nobody tries to off Trump. As bad as it is, that would definitely just make things worse. Just check out the order of succession.
How far down would they have to go before things start to look better? Best we can do is to just hope some other global power pities us enough to send a mercy nuke to DC.
They rigged the vote
sigh
bro fuck off
You sound like a trump supporter. No, really, exactly like them. And you’re no different.
Thanks for grouping all Americans together into the same monolith.
How transparently closed minded can you be ffs
Do you care who the Russian soldier in Ukraine voted for?
America is a monolith. This is what it chose to be. You can’t expect the rest of the world to act as nations yet only consider some of the population when one of them attacks.
On the world stage where economies are tanked and people die - this is Americas choice. Your sports team politics is an internal problem that we all have to suffer.
But her emails!?
Just to clarify, i’m talking about Musk. :)
Stop misgendering Elon!
The correct exclamation in this case is Butt Tizzy Males, not Buttery Males
The Eo about gender made everyone a female.
I wonder how much of the intended damage he wants us to suffer is going to be mitigated as a result of their incompetence, and then I wonder how long can we count on them to continue making these mistakes before people begin to get seriously hurt…
People have already died from their actions. 2 plane crashes and counting.
It’s been 4 days.
How did people get these email addresses?
I mean, the domain is known.
But was the system that president musk broke really holding back this torrent of abuse and garbage?
Feels like actual email addresses were leaked.
Unless it was a mailing list that was suddenly exposed.Still seems strange that an email that simply says “yo” suddenly came through as part of the spam.
Feels like email addresses were posted somewhere, and someone jumped on for the lulz. Along with the wall of trolls and abusers jumping on.I mean, as soon as I link a domain to an IP, I see all sorts of “security” scans turn up. Till then, firewall is pretty quiet.
And if I wildcard direct a domain to an ip, the root gets scanned but any sub domains don’t.
I feel email addresses would follow a similar pattern.It’s worse than you think. Last week we got an email that looked like strait up fishing spam demanding that we were to email back “yes” confirming that we got the email. So many people even reported it as spam that we had supervisors have to directly tell us that it was legit. Then they sent out a second email with a warning that is was in fact legit and to respond to that email with “yes” if we got that one.
On the back end at OPM: Musk forced his way in and demanded to redo the email servers. The IT told him it wasn’t possible for what he was asking. So he brought in his own goons to install a non government server with unknown software and unknown security configurations and they plugged it into the OPM network to spoof it as an official OPM server, then sent out those emails.
And sure enough, the idiot didn’t didn’t configure the security correctly or let official government IT people touch it, it ended up backdooring into the entire government HR system, and it had every active government email that responded “yes” to his stupid email that we were required to. And now we know it was compromised. There is no telling what foreign governments now have all of that info as well as what other backdoors they have installed.
Holy shit.
That’s some shit that contravenes every security briefing, every security best practice.
Then they go and spoof a legit government installation with their own bullshit?!
Fucking Hilary and her email servers. But like times 10. Legitimately compromising the US government communications.
Why is this lawsuits, why isn’t this treason?!This is way worse than Hillary’s email servers.
Hillary occasionally conducted government business on an email servers owned by her, but also on her (not .gov) domain.
I never knew the details. But I wouldn’t doubt that for simplicity sake they probably had multiple accounts configured on the same phone. At that point, it’s incredibly easy to accidentally respond or start a chain from the wrong address. Who among us hasn’t done that, we actually grew up with this stuff.
What Musk did was set up his own separate infrastructure to send and receive emails, on a .gov domain, and use that server, as a private contractor to the president, to circumvent tons of critical processes and security practices, in order to push his clients agenda.
The point of that agenda is to nip checks-and-balances in the balls so the president can unilaterally enact “his” (or the highest bidders…Heritage, Musk, Thiel, Federalists, Illuminati, Skull and Bones, whatever, at this point it’s all the same) agenda.
It. Is. Actual. Treason.
By an illegal immigrant, no less.
why isn’t this treason?!
Because Musk bought the election for Trump, and now Musk do whatever he wants.
But her emails…
