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.
Then would a check to everyone of an immigrant family be acceptable? Only people who’s family have never left the country are fit to protect it?
That feels like a violation of the 14th amendment, and ensures only redneck Republican hillbillies are the ones who ensure the safety of Americans.
Being a child of an immigrant isn’t kinda depends on where from and whether we are at war with them
I’m not sure the people making the jingoistic comments are aware of the implications of this way of thinking.
