I can't believe Elon Musk and the DOGE team got CNN to keep saying "balls." Now, Dana Bash calls him "Harry Balls," and Erin Burnett and Katie Drummond even explored "Big Balls." Kara Swisher joked that Musk hired him for that very reason!

Video Transcript AI Summary
Elon Musk, using the social media handle "Harry Balls," tweeted that America's democracy is being destroyed by a judicial coup. A 19-year-old, nicknamed "Big Balls" online, now works for Musk at Doge. This individual, who founded multiple companies including Tesla dot sexy LLC at age 16, controls dozens of web domains. This raises concerns about the vetting process for young employees handling sensitive data on potentially hundreds of millions of Americans. Many of these employees are in their early twenties. The lack of vetting might be considered a "feature, not a bug" in the tech world. We are unsure how well Musk knows these individuals.
Speaker 0: Now the disruptor in chief, Elon Musk, who apparently has adopted the alias, at least he changed his social media handle to Harry balls, tweeted this morning, democracy in America is being destroyed by judicial coup. Judicial coup. So this is a 19 year old high school graduate, who has used, the unfortunate nickname, Big Balls online. So that would be one way that we could refer to him. He is now working at Musk's behest, inside Doge, and we looked into his background.
And so we found, you know, several notable things, Aaron. One of which, is that this individual has founded multiple companies, including one, with another unfortunate name, Tesla dot sexy LLC, which he established in 2021. He would have been around 16 years old. Now this LLC controls dozens of web domains.
Speaker 1: So, Kara, you know, you hear this and you have known Elon Musk for years. So now you look at these young men who are now in data and in the private information about maybe hundreds of millions of American citizens as young as 19, the the big balls here, that Katie's talking about. Most of them are in their early twenties. There's an exception I'm gonna get to in a minute. I'm curious though, Cara.
How well does even Musk know these young men, do you think?
Speaker 2: I have no idea. I think there's no vetting whatsoever. As you can see, that's taken place, it took Katie and the really great team. Wired has done an astonishing job here. You know, I could make a joke that's probably why he was hired for all this ridiculous nonsense and and other nefarious things.
But, you know, there's an expressions in in technology that's not a it's it's a feature, not a bug.
