But before breaking up the band, the politically motivated and self-described "gay furry hackers" published a bunch of furious messages that SiegedSec claims were sent to them by Mike Howell, the executive director of the Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project.The feud began on July 9 after SiegedSec said it obtained usernames, passwords, logs and "other juicy info" belonging to the Heritage Foundation, and then leaked that private data online in response to the org producing and promoting Project 2025.
Project 2025 is a lengthy and fairly detailed blueprint that outlines how a future conservative president – such as, say, Donald Trump should he win the election again – could overhaul the federal government and public policy to enact a far-Right agenda and give huge powers to the executive branch.
And ultimately, it seeks to expand the executive branch's power, ensure that federal agencies and their leaders and rank-and-file fall heavily in line with the president's agenda and "push back against woke policies in corporate America" [PDF].
SiegedSec, whose previous targets have included America's biggest nuclear power lab's computer systems and NATO (on multiple occasions), said it took issue with Project 2025's "authoritarian Christian nationalist plan to reform the United States government."
From there the messages said to have been sent from Howell become increasingly dark, lecturing the crew on beastiality and how it's a "weird sin," calling them perverts," and then telling vio "you won't be able to wear a furry tiger costume when you're getting pounded in the ass in the federal prison I put you in next year."
