The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) aide known as “Big Balls” has officially resigned.
Edward Coristine, who utilized the nickname “Big Balls” for his coding work, is no longer working with the department, according to The Hill.
“Coristine, a 19-year-old high school graduate, was privy to high-level meetings involving DOGE, the Treasury Department, Commerce Department, and military operations throughout his tenure at the newly formed digital agency,” the outlet reported.
A report from WIRED indicates Coristine just received full-time work at the General Services Administration (GSA) last month, but this month, “his Google Workspace account with the General Services Administration (GSA) was no longer active, according to a source with direct knowledge. His name also no longer appears on a White House contact list of current DOGE employees on the federal payroll maintained by a senior administration official, the official says.”
Despite his short government career, “Big Balls” had a major impact on the news cycle shortly after President Donald Trump was elected. In February, CNN was forced to report on the 19-year-old “government expert” live after his presence at DOGE made headlines.
“So this is a 19-year-old high school graduate who has used the unfortunate nickname, uh, ‘Big Balls’ online. So that would be one way that we could refer to him,” reported WIRED Global Editorial Director Katie Drummond to CNN’s Erin Burnett.
“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, Erin. One of which is that this individual has founded multiple companies, including one with another unfortunate name, uh, ‘Tesla Dot Sexy LLC,’ which he established in 2021. He would have been around 16 years old,” she added.

It is unclear where Coristine plans to go, or if he plans to go back to school following his stint at DOGE.
