Hackers target all Tesla owners in the US releasing names and addresses

DOGEQUEST Interactive Map

Important Takeaways:

  • Elon Musk-hating hackers have doxxed Tesla owners in the United States, releasing an interactive map showing their names, addresses, phone numbers and emails.
  • The disturbing website, called DOGEQUEST, also provides the locations of every Tesla showroom, charging station and the known residences of Department of Government Efficiency employees.
  • It even lists FBI Director Kash Patel’s home and uses a symbol of a Molotov cocktail as its cursor.
  • The site’s operators said they will only remove identifying information about Tesla drivers if they provide proof that they sold their electric vehicle amid a national boycott of the car maker.
  • It is unclear where the hacker got the information about the Tesla owners, but it has caused a lot of concern – with Musk labeling it ‘extreme domestic terrorism.’
  • ‘Encouraging destruction of Teslas throughout the country is extreme domestic terrorism!!’ he wrote on X Tuesday night.
  • Some online have called for FBI Director Patel to act to take down the website and go after the cyber group behind it after President Donald Trump declared anyone enacting violence against Teslas and its dealerships would be labeled ‘domestic terrorists.’
  • The president’s remarks last week came amid fiery mass protests at showrooms across the world as leftists hit out at Musk for his efforts to slash government spending.
  • Five protesters were arrested for disorderly conduct at the Manhattan demonstration and one was taken into custody for resisting arrest, obstruction and violation of local law, The New York Daily News reported.
  • There have also been more than a dozen acts of vandalism against Tesla vehicles, dealerships and charging stations since Donald Trump’s inauguration, according to police and local reports.

FBI investigates organized attacks against Tesla as domestic terror spree

Tesla cars on fire-Las Vegas Review-Journal

Important Takeaways:

  • While the FBI investigates far-left terrorist attacks against Tesla service centers, showrooms, Supercharging networks, and vehicles, the radical Soros-funded non-profit Indivisible is preparing to launch a multi-city offensive against the American company in the coming days.
  • Anti-DEI crusader Robby Starbuck explained more about the rogue non-profit with dirty Soros monies:
    • Over the next few days you’re going to see an organized progressional protest effort at Tesla stores put together by a group called Indivisible.
    • George Soros foundation has given Indivisible nearly $8 million dollars for their “activism”.
    • They’re calling these “Tesla takedown” events and they’re doing it in the midst of a domestic terror spree targeting Tesla and Tesla owners. They have these planned across the entire country. These images are just six examples.
    • How can this not be seen as encouraging more violence and terrorism? I personally think that any violence occurring near locations they’ve chosen should result in Soros, his foundation, Indivisible and their founders being held criminally accountable as co-conspirators.
    • The indivisible founders are Ezra Levin and his wife Leah Greenberg. They became “resistance” figures during Trump’s first term and their work is celebrated by elected Democrats. So yeah, it’s clear to me that the Democrats and their typical thugs are organizing this insanity.
    • There’s reportedly even a form protest leaders can fill out to receive “reimbursement” payments for their protests.
    • There has been a series of domestic terrorism incidents nationwide by far-left Democrats targeting Tesla showrooms, service centers, Superchargers, and vehicles. The latest occurred on Tuesday in Las Vegas.
    • On Wednesday night, FBI deputy director Dan Bongino said the agency is investigating attacks targeting Tesla.
    • One day earlier, Attorney General Pam Bondi threatened “severe consequences on those involved in these attacks, including those operating behind the scenes to coordinate and fund these crimes.”
    • Elon Musk previously wrote on X that an investigation found five ActBlue-funded groups have fueled Tesla protests in recent weeks, including Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise & Resist, Indivisible Project, and Democratic Socialists of America (AoC’s party).
    • Meanwhile, the failed 2024 Democratic vice-presidential nominee [Tim Walz] wished death on the American company.

Michael Snyder: Trump and Musk ruthlessly gut corrupt government agencies

Important Takeaways:

  • When I decided to write this article, I was feeling quite overwhelmed, because there is just so much going on right now. This is going to be a very long article, and I will take it one step at a time.  With all that being said, let’s take a look at some of the highlights…
  • [And I, not the author of this article highlighted the highlights so you have to go to the website for more information]
  • The U.S. Treasury
    • If you want to understand what is really going on in any organization, you need to follow the flow of money.
    • So Elon Musk has been wanting access to the U.S. Treasury’s payment system, and U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent granted him that access on Friday…
    • After getting in, Musk discovered that payment approval officers at the U.S. Treasury were simply rubber-stamping all payment requests that were submitted to them…
    • Every single year, more than 6 trillion dollars is disbursed through the U.S. Treasury’s payment system…
    • In a typical year, over one billion payments are made by the U.S. Treasury, and not a single one was ever being denied.
  • OPM
    • The Office of Personnel Management is the largest HR department on the entire globe.
    • “A team including current and former employees of Musk assumed command of OPM on Jan. 20, the day Trump took office. They have moved sofa beds onto the fifth floor of the agency’s headquarters, which contains the director’s office and can only be accessed with a security badge or a security escort, one of the OPM employees said…. The sofa beds have been installed so the team can work around the clock, the employee said.”
    • Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.
    • … During an internal meeting Friday morning, Trump administration officials directed OPM senior career staff to begin making plans to cut the agency’s workforce and programs by 70%. Multiple sources with direct knowledge of the meeting confirmed the details of the meeting to Federal News Network…
  • USAID
    • When officials from Musk’s team went over to USAID headquarters, they were physically prevented from entering.
    • In response, the representatives from Musk’s team “threatened to call US Marshals to be allowed access”…
      • Two top security officials at the US Agency for International Development were put on administrative leave Saturday night after attempting to refuse officials from Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency access systems at the agency, even after DOGE personnel threatened to call law enforcement, multiple sources familiar told CNN.
      • According to sources, personnel from the Musk-created office physically tried to access the USAID headquarters in Washington, DC, and were stopped. The DOGE personnel demanded to be let in and threatened to call US Marshals to be allowed access, two of the sources said.
      • The DOGE personnel wanted to gain access to USAID security systems and personnel files, three sources said. Two of those sources also said the DOGE personnel wanted access to classified information, which only those with security clearances and a specific need to know are able to access.
    • If you go to USAID’s website now, you will find that it has been shut down…
  • On his Twitter account, Robby Starbuck detailed how this works…
    • USAID essentially functions as one of many money laundering machines for Democrats in DC. Here’s how it works:
    • Activists create obscure NGO
    • Dems fund it lavishly
    • NGO does bare minimum (or actively hurts the United States)
    • Activists get paid and donate to Dems
    • Not only that but USAID helped spread their gender ideology nonsense and brought millions of illegals into our country.
    • That’s why Democrats are freaking out about the possibility that USAID’s being shut down by President Trump. It needs to be done.
  • The EPA
    • It appears that the EPA could soon be getting a lot smaller.
    • Last week, over 1,000 EPA employees were notified that “they were deemed to be on probationary status” and could soon be fired…
    • …The same message will be sent to other agency workforces, a White House official said. Across the US government, the latest data shows there are more than 220,000 employees on probation.
  • The FBI
    • Last week, the Washington Post reported that “at least eight senior FBI executives” were being terminated…
    • A top Justice Department official on Friday ordered the firing of at least eight senior FBI executives and a sweeping examination of the work of thousands of other bureau employees, including all those who worked on investigations tied to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to a memo obtained by The Washington Post.
    • The directive from Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove said those field agents and FBI support staff could face “additional personnel action,” suggesting that the number of firings could swell in the coming weeks.
    • Ken Dilanian with NBC News reported that a number of the FBI’s “top executives” were told they would be out of a job by Monday. Friday, Dilanian reported a “purge” was underway that could see the heads of up to 20 of the FBI’s 55 field offices relieved.
    • Dilanian reported, “The purge is bigger than first understood, we are told, and includes more than 20 heads of FBI field offices, including the ones in Miami and Washington, DC.”
    • Vast numbers of federal workers that have been working at home since the pandemic began are going to have to start showing up at the office each day.
  • If they choose not to report, they will gladly be given their walking papers…
  • President Trump on Wednesday warned that federal workers will have to show up to the office “or be terminated,” framing his administration’s so-called buyout offers to 2 million employees as an effort to shrink the government.
  • “We’re requiring them to show up to work or be terminated,” Trump said in remarks from the East Room before signing an immigration bill into law.
  • “We think a very substantial number of people will not show up to work, and therefore our government will get smaller and more efficient,” Trump added. “And that’s what we’ve been looking to do for many, many decades, frankly.”
  • In the entire history of the United States, we have never seen anything quite like this, and there is widespread panic among federal employees right now…

More warnings from FBI’s Chris Wray as he resigns: China has penetrated US cyber and infrastructure

Chris Wray FBI

Important Takeaways:

  • Outgoing FBI Director Christopher Wray revealed during an interview on Sunday, a week before he steps down, that China has penetrated America’s water treatment plants, electric grid, and other critical civilian infrastructure, and is lying “in wait” for an opportunity to cyberattack at a time and place of its choosing.
  • Asked on CBS’s 60 Minutes about Chinese penetration of U.S. cyber and infrastructure, Wray said China’s cyber program is the largest in the world and has stolen more of Americans’ personal and corporate data than every nation combined. Then, he added:
    • But even beyond the cyber theft. There’s another part of the Chinese cyber threat that I think has not gotten the attention publicly that it I think desperately deserves. And that is Chinese government’s pre-positioning on American civilian critical infrastructure. To lie in wait on those networks to be in a position to wreak havoc and can inflict real-world harm at a time and place of their choosing.
  • Wray said China has already infiltrated malware into critical American infrastructure.
  • “Things like water treatment plants. We’re talking about transportation systems. We’re talking about targeting of our energy sector, the electric grid, natural gas pipelines. And recently we’ve seen targeting of our telecommunications systems,” he said.
  • Wray said China has also been listening into Americans’ calls.
  • Joshua Steinman, former National Security Council senior director for cyber security during the Trump administration, posted on X:
    • This enrages me. I left them with the tools they needed to confront this. And it appears those tools went unused for four years. Total mismanagement.
  • Wray called stepping down “one of the hardest decisions” he has ever made, but said he had little choice after President-Elect Donald Trump made it clear he would be replaced.
  • Trump has nominated Kash Patel, former deputy Director of National Intelligence and Pentagon chief of staff for the role.

Historic number of explosive devices found in Virginia home

FBI van in Texas

Important Takeaways:

  • The FBI seized more than 150 homemade explosives from a Virginia man’s home, ABC News reported on Wednesday.
  • Federal investigators made this discovery in December while searching the home of Norfolk, Virginia, resident Brad Spafford.
  • According to court documents, it is believed to be “the largest seizure by number of finished explosive devices in FBI history,” ABC News reported.
  • The court documents added that most of the bombs, material for building explosives, and tools were found in a garage next to Spafford’s home.
  • “Several additional apparent pipe bombs were found in a backpack in the home’s bedroom, completely unsecured,” said prosecutors.
  • Spafford’s defense attorneys argued in a motion Tuesday that he never planned anything violent.
  • The prosecution responded, “While he is not known to have engaged in any apparent violence, he has certainly expressed interest in the same, through his manufacture of pipe bombs marked ‘lethal,’ his possession of riot gear and a vest loaded with pipe bombs, his support for political assassinations and use of the pictures of the President for target practice,” ABC News reported.
  • According to the court documents, “this investigation began in early 2023 when the defendant’s neighbor and friend reported that the defendant disfigured his hand in 2021 while working with a homemade explosive device and was stockpiling weapons and homemade ammunition.”

Big move for Trump’s incoming team, picking Kash Patel to lead the FBI

Kash Patel, former chief of staff to Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller, speaks at a rally in Minden,

Important Takeaways:

  • More than any other personnel decision former President Donald Trump, the president-elect now, has made for his incoming administration, his decision to pick attorney Kash Patel to lead the FBI as the bureau’s next director has electrified Trump’s most ardent supporters.
  • The raw energy with this selection may be because Patel is viewed as one of the movement’s most aggressive fighters–he was critical in the effort to undercut in Trump’s first term the Russia hoax against the then-president and then later led counterterrorism efforts in the White House–but it’s perhaps even more because of the distrust American conservatives have in the FBI over the past several years that finding someone who just will not appease the world’s preeminent law enforcement agency’s bad actors and will aim to steer the bureau back towards actually enforcing the law and away from political witch hunting.
  • Senators may disagree with Patel on one thing or another, but they cannot legitimately argue that the person who led counterterrorism activities for the Trump White House including overseeing the raid that killed ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, serving as a senior adviser to the Director of National Intelligence, as chief of staff at the Pentagon, and as a top attorney for the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), as well as a long and illustrious career both as a prosecutor and as a public defender, is not qualified for the job. So see, this move by Trump puts these forces that his base has long distrusted and sought to counter in check–if not checkmate–and that’s why his base is so excited.
