Daniel Berulis appeared on Rachel Maddow's news show with his attorney Andrew Bakaj

Note: I don’t usually post from sites I don’t know, but I can’t find this segment on Rachel Maddow’s site (this is normal behavior for MSNBC). He has the video included and I can’t go directly to the video.

Following up on his startling revelations today about how DOGE engineers accessed MLRB databases without authority, and that Russian IP addresses were used with recently created user IDs and passwords to access them, Daniel Berulis— speaking through his lawyer—followed up with a new bombshell that DOGE systems “were also connected to Starlink”.

    Why has there not been more noise about this? I’m honestly a bit confused it looks pretty obvious from the outside but everyone in the US just seems to accept that it was a legitimate election? Idk

        • obvious grifting scoundrels obviously grift, obviously.
        • for example Elon musk has pumped the shit out of Tesla stock, and recently sold x to xai - this isn’t just cooking the books this is big time money laundering now. Can you trust these guys not to drive over the rule book if there’s a whisker’s chance in hell they’ll get away with it? Absolutely fucking not and you need your head examined if you think you can. It’s pretty fucking obvious.
        • established history of republican politicians literally cheating their way to victory via crooked voting machines (bush / gore - this is not conspiracy, this is established fact)
        • massive obvious projection from republicans / maga types makes it pretty obvious what they’re doing or about to do, eg ‘Hillary’s emails’ = guess who is using personal email accounts for everything / ‘pedophile ring out of a pizza restaurant’ = guess who is literally running a sex trafficking network oh look no way fucking etc etc etc etc and including stolen election bullshit blah blah blah
        • obviously shading comments ‘we have a plan’ ‘good at computers’ ‘I literally rigged the election otherwise I would have lost, but I rigged it so I won’ - Donald j trump
        • it’s not fucking rocket science to be honest I’d say it’s pretty fucking obvious

        Trump admitting it twice? We know he’s senile, but still, why would he say that if there wasn’t some truth to it?

          If that had actually happened, it would be all over the news and everybody would be talking about it.

      Because the Republicans have done an excellent job of looking like lunatics claiming election fraud and vote fixing. The left and progressives would look like the lunatics and be put in the same categories as the conspiracy theory loving right.

      Also, I think having “fair” elections is the only thing that keeps us going. If we don’t have the hope of voting someone out next time, we’re really going to give up.

        No offense but you all need to dig deep down and get some of the anger that the MAGA group has.

        we’re really going to give up.

        You would never hear them say this in response to elections becoming unfair. They’d be burning down the house. Turns out they got everything they wanted from doing this, so why is the left absolutely collapsing and instead focusing on demonstrations akin to whatever happened on the 4th. Time to put on your vagina hats and go for a walk.

          No offense taken. I know you’re right, but anger is hard to pull up after we got him out once and he’s back in. Don’t get me wrong, he cheated, but how was that even fucking possible? A LOT of fellow American traitors helped him. It’s disheartening.
