SCOOP: 'Big Balls' has officially left the building. 19-year-old technologist Edward Coristine, a key operative in Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) who's gone by the name "Big Balls" online, has resigned, the White House tells WIRED.

As of Tuesday, his Google Suite account with the General Services Administration (GSA) was no longer active, according to a source with direct knowledge. His name also no longer appears on a White House contact list of current DOGE employees on the federal payroll, an official says.

Let's rewind. Remember in February when WIRED learned the teen owned ‘Tesla.Sexy LLC’ and worked at startup that has hired convicted hackers? At the time, experts questioned if he would pass the background check typically required for access to sensitive US government systems.

Also in February, we learned that Coristine—the 19-year-old known online as “Big Balls”—and Kyle Schutt were listed as staff at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

Coristine received full-time employment status at the GSA late last month, as reported by WIRED. Earlier in May, he appeared to be attending regular meetings with departments and agencies, including a May 5 meeting with the Commerce Department to discuss Trump’s golden Visa.

In a few months, Musk’s loyalists at DOGE have infiltrated dozens of federal agencies, pushed out tens of thousands of workers, and siphoned millions of people’s most sensitive data. The next step was to unleash the AI. A reminder of what has happened:

Time for his CAPITAL SENTENCE

Or would that be CAPITOL? LOL
