"Despite only briefly working at Musk's brain implant company Neuralink before joining Doge, Coristine parachuted into major government agencies. Last month, Reuters reported that Coristine was one of two Doge associates promoting the use of AI across the federal bureaucracy.

Coristine, like other Doge members, was followed by a shady online history. Media outlets, including Wired which first reported his departure, revealed that Coristine had been active in a chatroom popular with hackers and previously had been fired from a job following an alleged data leak.

In March, Reuters reported that Coristine had provided tech support to a cybercrime gang that had bragged about trafficking in stolen data and harassing an FBI agent. Coristine was also fired from a previous internship at a cybersecurity firm for leaking secrets, Bloomberg reported.

Among the agencies that Coristine worked at were Health and Human Services, the General Services Administration, the Social Security Administration, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency.

Doge's cuts during this time gutted public services and targeted tens of thousands of government workers with terminations."
