Howell initially responded by accusing Thalen of somehow being involved with the hackers: “I’m aware of your participation in the sexually deviant ‘Furry’ group’s hack,” he tweeted. Just for that?

vio: yes. The Daily Dot initially reported on the leak, which vio says was conducted via the chat app Signal and was subsequently made public through a web-accessible text file.

The hacker group published usernames, IP addresses and personal email addresses belonging to users that interacted with the Daily Signal, the think tank's media outlet which its website describes as offering conservative news, commentary and analysis.

Although President Donald Trump has previously denied knowing about Project 2025, his cabinet is filled with leaders who were instrumental in its development, including Russ Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget, Border Czar Tom Homan and Brendan Carr, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) chair.

The FBI declined to comment to the Daily Dot about the alleged raid.

.

An organized group stumbled upon a two-year-old archive of The Daily Signal website that was available on a public-facing website owned by a contractor.

That missive continues:

And while disavowing a life of crime, SiegedSec will remain "hackers and always fighting for the rights of others." 

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.

After Thalen ignored this provocation, Howell ultimately said that the conversation was real: “send me a link and I’ll confirm if correct,” he said, and then added, “Yah that’s me. The information dump has now been taken offline.

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.

we’re strongly against Project 2025 and everything the heritage foundation stands for.

Mike Howell: That’s why you hacked us? Earlier this week, the unconventional threat actor claimed that it had pilfered data from the conservative organization and would be releasing two gigabytes of it on its Telegram page.

However, the Heritage Foundation has disputed the notion that it was hacked.

we dont want anything more than that, not money and not fame. ®

Heritage Foundation Denies That It Was Penetrated by ‘Gay Furry Hackers’ After Bizarre Chat Logs Leak

SiegedSec, a known hacktivist group composed of self-described “gay furry hackers,” recently took credit for breaching a number of organizations, including The Heritage Foundation, the rightwing think-tank behind the controversial Project 2025 initiative.

The data at issue has been taken down, and additional security steps have since been taken as a precaution.”

The leader of SiegedSec, a disbanded group of self-stylized "gay furry hackers," was raided this week, months after attacking the creators of Project 2025.

"I regret to inform you that vio's location was raided earlier today," @mewmrrpmeow, a former SiegedSec member, shared in an X post on Wednesday.

Trump has claimed he knows "nothing" about it all though there clear links between Project 2025's advisory board, Team Trump, and the Republican National Committee.

The Christo-fascist wishlist includes, among many, many, many things, rolling back environmental protection rules [PDF], eliminating energy efficacy standards and programs, and ending the US government's "focus on climate change and green subsidies" [PDF].

so of course, we won't stand for that! Vio’s response is recorded as follows:

vio: we want to make a message and shine light on who exactly supports the heritage foundation. The plan would also reverse the approval of morning-after pills, and cut federal funding to abortion providers and those providing gender-affirming care [PDF].

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, Atlassian, and NATO (on multiple occasions) – said it took issue with Project 2025's "authoritarian Christian nationalist plan to reform the United States government." 

In a July 9 post on its Telegram channel, the cat-fanatics-slash-hacktivists noted: "Project 2025 threatens the rights of abortion healthcare and LGBTQ+ communities in particular.

^-^"

The Heritage Foundation did not respond to The Register's inquiries about the alleged data security breach nor about a chat exchange purported to be between SiegedSec's "vio" and the conservative group's Mike Howell.

We'd like to point out Howell retweetedparts of the purported conversation without denying he said the things he's quoted as saying.

The Signal exchange, according to SiegedSec, started with Howell asking what the hacktivists were "seeking or threatening." Here's how the conversation then apparently played out:

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."

Overall, not a good look for an organization touting Christian values, not that we're judging or anything.

Weinrich told The Intercept: “The story of a ‘hack’ is a false narrative and exaggeration by a group of criminal trolls trying to get attention.”

To make matters worse for the think-tank, an alleged conversation between a SiegedSec hacker calling themself “vio” and Mike Howell, a top executive at the Heritage Foundation, was leaked to the internet earlier this week.

The leak purports to show Howell and the hacker aggressively trading barbs with one another, as Howell attempts to negotiate a “meeting” with the hacker group.

The conversation initially starts off with Howell asking vio what the hackers want. I'm available to address any inquiries you may have."

SiegedSec demobilized in July 2024 after publishing data related to The Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank behind Project 2025.

It calls for privatizing many public healthcare services and reducing the scope of programs including Medicare and Medicaid.

After claiming to break into a database belonging to The Heritage Foundation, and then leaking 2GB of files belonging to the ultra-conservative think tank, the hacktivist crew SiegedSec says it has disbanded. I hope the word spreads as fast as the STDs do in your degenerate furry community.”

At other points in the conversation, Howell is purported to have told the hacker that their “people turned against nature” and are “degenerate perverts.”

Howell seems to have confirmed, multiple times, that the conversation is real.

The information obtained was limited to usernames, names, email addresses, and incomplete password information of both Heritage and non-Heritage content contributors, as well as article comments and the IP address of the commenter. Daily Dot journalist Mikael Thalen reached out to Howell via X to ask him if he could “confirm the authenticity” of the leaked chat.
