The most famous of all of Trump’s DOGE-boys is known as “Big Balls” to his friends. It’s easy to see how he got that name and it has nothing to do with his anatomy:
Past reporting had focused on his youth – he is 19 – and his chosen nickname of “bigballs,” which became a pop culture punchline. Musk has championed the teen on his social media site X, telling his followers last month that “Big Balls is awesome.”
Beginning around 2022, while still in high school, Coristine ran a company called DiamondCDN that provided network services, according to corporate and digital records reviewed by Reuters and interviews with half a dozen former associates. Among its users was a website run by a ring of cybercriminals operating under the name “EGodly,” according to digital records preserved by the internet intelligence firm DomainTools and the online cybersecurity tool Any.Run.
The details of Coristine’s connection to EGodly have not been previously reported.
On Feb. 15, 2023, EGodly thanked Coristine’s company for its assistance in a post on the Telegram messaging app. “We extend our gratitude to our valued partners DiamondCDN for generously providing us with their amazing DDoS protection and caching systems, which allow us to securely host and safeguard our website,” the message said.
The digital records reviewed by Reuters showed the EGodly website, dataleak.fun, was tied to internet protocol addresses registered to DiamondCDN and other Coristine-owned entities between October 2022 and June 2023, and that some users attempting to access the site around that time would hit a DiamondCDN “Security check.”
This is one of the people digging around in your personal information all across the U.S. Government.
He is listed as a “senior adviser” at the State Department and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, according to one official at each agency who told Reuters they had seen his name in their respective agencies’ staff directory.
On LinkedIn, Coristine describes himself as a “Volunteer (Intern) Plumber” with the U.S. government.
The entire Trump administration is a criminal enterprise.
