A whistleblower complaint alleges John Solly claimed to have stored highly sensitive Social Security data on a thumb drive. Solly and Leidos, his current employer, strongly deny the allegations. Read the full story: [https://www.wired.com/story/john-solly-doge-operative-accu...
Current employer? Didn't he start that business?
Fun fact. Leidos is a major government contractor. Also, they spent millions on a marketing firm to come up with the name Leidos. Which means absolutely nothing. It is just the word kaleidoscope with the first and last part of the word carved off. Ka- Leidos - cope. Learn...
I think 25 years to life should fit the crime tbh.
Please support wired! They have been all over this DOGE nonsense from the beginning.
Why are you hiding your post history?
Wired is amazing! These people have the data too: "Coristine, Moghaddassi, and Russo did not immediately respond to requests for comment prior to publication." "Dudek says that the DOGE team at SSA never directly told him that they were working on EDEN and that he did not i...
I mean, our current training videos are pretty clear regarding these activities and the penalties for them. Of course, rules thee not for me for those favored by the regime.
lol Dudek knew what was happening. He himself was caught up doing almost exactly that same thing for Trump before he was even sworn in to give Project 2025 a head start. Trump rewarded him by making him head of the agency and canceling the investigation into his actions.
Oh look, it's the usual suspects: *Other DOGE members, including Edward Coristine, Aram Moghaddassi, and Michael Russo were alleged in Borges’ complaint to have taken part in the discussions to move NUMIDENT data. Before joining DOGE at 19 years old, Coristine worked for a st...
They should prosecute and fine the new employer if they used the info. Criminally.
Disbar Leidos.
So can we file a civil lawsuit against him (and other DOGE members) for identity theft?
I worked for that company as a contractor, albeit briefly. They completely lied to me about what my actual job was.
Go on…
About to be John Sorry
Take? He means STEAL. It is no different than stuffing gold bars in his bag as he exits the door. It is property owned by the government and by the taxpayers. It is not his to take. He should be put in prison the same as a bank robber.
I hope Elon musk is eventually held accountable for all these goons he recruited. As bad as they are, none of them would have even been in a position to do all of this damage if it were not for him.
We are so behind on dispensing consequences
Decades of experts and complicated projects protecting the American people. Decades. And a wave of anti intellectualism meets misinformation fueled by Zuc and Moscow and the whole fucking thing needs to be torn down to studs. Dear God, please let Congress and the justice syst...
Will the In-justice Department investigate him and indict him? Don’t hold your breath. Pam is ugly bad.
He'll probably abscond to a Russian or Chinese embassy here shortly.
The contractor I used to work for had their contract cancelled at SSA and it was given to Leidos. All makes sense now.
So with the social security information of hundreds of millions of people in hand, he takes a job at Leidos where he “[leads] digital modernization for federal health and benefits agencies.” That’s not a coincidence considering it’s in line with the Administration’s efforts t...
DOGE was the biggest cybercrime in history.
The coward took down his online footprint. He was bragging about his actions until this broke. Cute how they cut and run so fast.
1 day sentence for each count consecutively Each count being each person's SSN he accessed Also conspiracy charges so everybody associated get a sentence And don't forget the forfeit of seizure of all their possessions to be auctioned off
I almost took a job with Leidos. Now I'm glad I didn't.
Oh man someone beat me to posting this! Updates on cases associated with my whistleblowing efforts help me sleep at night :)
It pleases me that his shirt and jacket are such stupidly discordant colors in his official fed photo.
Lawyers among us, what sort of trouble is Leidos in here?
Literally zero unless there's a new Dem administration that actually has a spine.
The great thing is even if he didn’t do it, they’re all so blatantly incompetent and corrupt as is that it’s entirely believable that they in fact did it. Like how JD fucks couches. True? Maybe. Believable? Absolutely.
Is this the guy making the rounds in deposition admitting to copying data to his phone and sending it over signal?
No, that’s Nate Cavanaugh.
Maybe these kids weren't vetted enough?
I think they were vetted thoroughly and confirmed to be utterly without integrity or honesty.
They were vetted, just not to the standards you are thinking of
Stealing data. He has no right or authority to take said data.
Who has more reason to lie - the whistleblower who is literally taking their life in their hands by finking on The Regime, or the wannabe Nazi who has committed a massive PII breach? Well, there ya go.
He needs to be jailed for a long time. Same with a Swordfish ban.
Put him in jail now!!! No compromising on this.
The phishing attempts from the "Social Security Administration" have skyrocketed over the last year. This is most probably the work of current or former DOGE employees, and may represent the largest data breach of the US Government systems to date.
If Leidos actually received the data is a red herring. The concern is that sensitive data was placed on a device that prevents the further efforts to enforce custodianship. If not to Leidos, it could be ANYWHERE.... or nowhere. We simply cannot tell anymore. That we had pe...
John Solly is such a spider!
JOHN SOLLY. Say his name.
What’s his social security number? (Just kidding don’t actually say)
Anything going to happen? What's for dinner?
We all know this is what they were doing. They certainly didn’t do anything to improve efficiency.
Incredibly illegal and they should see prison time. But will they?
