Someone needs to post jokes about the Swastika Car to President Xelon, that will piss them both off. Also remind President Felon that xelon is pwning him so hard!!!
This is so embarassing. It can’t be the case that these idiots are actually in control of the united states.
What is “Things people have been saying for 10 years?” Alex?
Nah they have people helping them. At any second you could stop and they would have no power. But you continually support their project
It all seems to be rushed and it’s all an attack on political opposition. Doing it well isn’t important. Like a monkey throwing shit at another monkey, they don’t care that they have some shit on their hands, they threw shit at another monkey and that’s what counts. Unfortunately the shit throwing monkeys are the president of the USA and the wealthiest person in the world.
To be fair, healthcare.gov had a rocky rollout too. No gaping security holes AFAIK though, so this is a new low.
You can thank your compatriots for this horror show. Huh. There’s a double entendre there if you’re familiar with the Russian language, or if you’ve read A Clockwork Orange.
Probably because it “doesn’t” use SQL
What did you expect from a department named after a memecoin anyways
I still think it’s incredible he named his not yet an actual government department after a should-be-treated-as-a-security-by-the-SEC that he pumped and dumped
The meme came first. Then the coin. Then Elon. It used to be innocent.
Considering elon is also a joke, the history repeats itself

Is musk’s consort shitting out another kid?
Ah, I see. That’s the efficiency they’re looking for.
Crowd source your database, what could go wrong?
You understand the assignment people.
I do, but say I was… Let’s call it “clueless”, what would a simpleton like me do to exploit such a thing?
It looks like it’s been patched. I couldn’t find solid instructions anyway. But if I do, I’m sure someone will post an easy to use shell script.
I’m torn on this, on one hand I know there must be millions of dollars in contracts for pointless reports and a huge amount of government wasteful spending in general.
On the other hand, musk and trump are absolute morons. And they will cut shit just because they don’t know what the words mean.
Whoever dismantles the pre-existing structure will be the one who will have the chance to rebuild it. This is the entire reason they are doing it. Great if you share their vision. Not so much if you don’t.
At least someone is doing it.
What a shit take. Not all change is good change, and if you think this will be a good change, boy do I have some great ocean front property in Colorado to sell you.
Yeah, my preference for government is to not change. Enforce the laws we have efficiently, and don’t bother me too much. Big changes carry a lot of (usually) subtle carveouts for special interests.
will be the one who will have the chance to rebuild it
Assumingbthey have any intention of rebuilding it.
Waste is how you frame it.
Even literal poop has a benefit.
I do client work, sometimes it drives me mad how much time I “waste” making PPT slides that are just prettier BI dashboards, but then the client sees it, sends that one slide to his boss and everyone claps me on the back.
No you don’t know that. You are repeating a trope without substance. Sure there’s probably huge waste at the pentagon but that’s not on the chopping block here.
The wasteful spending is in defense and ain’t nobody looking into that…
Look at the bright side, the Evil Empire is over! America is done. Cooked. The next few years are gonna suck a lot but the deteriorating conditions will finally push Americans into a second revolution.
Sadly, the deteriorating conditions are exactly what some groups want. Those are also the ones who can affect change, either with guns or money.
0.001 ElonCoin says that absolutely nobody will revolt against anything.
70% of the country either wants this or was too lazy to do a single thing to stop it, and the other 30% is too busy yelling at each other about how they’re the most pure.
Ain’t shit gonna happen.
Your figures are reversed.
Not voting was a vote for Nazis, so yeah, the ~40% that did not vote are being clumped in with them.
If you are “torn” on whether it is a good thing to grant a wealthy campaign donor unfettered and unquestionably illegal access to government and bureaucratic infrastructure, with zero accountability or oversight, and who has displayed absolutely zero competence at managing any public institution (and in fact has a record of incompetence at managing private enterprises), then I honestly think you’re one of the millions of Americans who just needs to fuck off and stop contributing to adult decision-making. You’re simply not up to the task.
Fucking CyberTruck like fucking pile of shit website. What kills me the most is that the fucking things they’re screenshoting, those pages have literal “export to XML” buttons that they could fucking export, save the XML to some shared drive that gets swept, and the put it in some actually secure database.
This whole fucking thing reeks of some fucking weeb ass Roblox hackers whose last project consisted of Lua Script emulating some fucking redstone calculator they wrote in Minecraft. And the export fuction on the thing? It’s just one dimension SUM function CSV exports. Literally no other dimenstions of values to add, shit I would be fucking surprised if a single one of the people writing the goddamn have ever heard of OLAP.
And to top it off, we already have a fucking website that does what this fucking place does, but 846 decillion times better. And it doesn’t have a fucking Instagram esque reel of Tweets of people taking fucking screenshots of an open database.
I can’t wait till the next dumbass gets into the White House and turns this pile of grabage off. Paying these idiots millions to power and run the hardware this pitiful excuse of a website runs on. And all we got for that money is some shit that is about on par as the shit you get from some O’Reilly book called “Building a Government Website Crash Course” with a Bald Eagle dying of bird flu on the cover.
This fucking idiot maybe wants to fucking learn what the hell SQL is.
But the government does not use SQL per ELMO.
I am waiting for this idiot to come up with something like EIQL (Elmo’s idiotic query language).
Musk is wrong about literally everything. Must be nice to have enough money to make up for being a fucking moron.
I don’t know if there’s enough money in the world to make up for that horse’s ass. All his purchased government position does, beyond destroying the US government, is broadcast how he’s a feckless moron to anyone who isn’t just as stupid.
Unfortunately, Musk isn’t alone: many US citizens are that stupid.
many US citizens are that stupid
Most.
30% voted for this, 40% couldn’t be fucked to vote against this so we’ve got a base of 70% of this country being dumb as shit.
So, tell us how you really feel.

Thanks, I needed that. Poetic.
This pretty much proves that the US government is experiencing its worst cybersecurity breach ever.

Is it really a breach if they’ll just hand it over to anyone who pays and/or stroke’s Mango Mussolini’s ego?
This has also been the narrative on recent techdirt.com posts, e.g. https://www.techdirt.com/2025/02/13/at-last-doge-and-musk-are-finally-named-in-a-lawsuit-albeit-officially/ - I (not being American) do not know or care enough about the topic to have an opinion about it.
The United States has been glory holed by anyone who paid admission.
Also a pretty brilliant feat of social engineering on Musk’s part. (And I don’t say that to be flattering, it just kind of is.)
Musk is proof of that, in and of himself. And it’s not just cyber, it’s national security. We are in grave danger.
Maybe it’s intentional
I can’t believe people don’t get that. They are trying to delegitimize the parts of our government that help us.
Maybe it’s more sinister than that.
It is far more sinister. They are trying to delegitimize them and then replace them with private corporations that they control. It is a long term plan.
Two of the key ultra conservative goals of P25 are to consolidate power of the executive branch and benefit corporate interests by rolling back regulatory oversight. They are doing a great job of their goal.
3-5% of the population general striking and protesting wildly could turn the tide. People say they can’t afford time off work. They won’t have work, if they don’t. At least not paid work.
Current economic indicators aren’t looking good. If the largest employer in the country performs mass layoffs there’ll be a loooot of people out of work and likely not enough jobs to go around
