'Big Balls' DOGE Goon Hired Full-Time on Top Government Salary
This idiot is not qualified for any government job
https://www.thedailybeast.com/big-balls-doge-goon-hired-full-time-on-top-government-salary/
They were meant to be gone after 130 days—but three Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffers hired as restricted special government employees (SGEs) are now full time.
Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, and Ethan Shaotran were brought on board in early February and have been made full time in the last two months, Wired reported.
Shaotran was made full time on April 10 and Coristine, who has been known as “Big Balls,” and Farritor on May 31, all of them retaining their title as “senior advisor.”
Prior to being made full time none of the trio drew a government salary but they are now receiving some of the highest possible salaries for government employees, according to documents seen by Wired.
The trio all had connections to Musk’s companies before joining DOGE. Shaotran took part in an xAI hackathon, Coristine worked at Neuralink, and Farritor completed an internship at SpaceX.
