CBS Democrat activist Margaret Brennan conducted an interview with a USAID employee whose identity is concealed. While legacy media is actively investigating and doxxing DOGE employees, they respect the USAID employee’s wish not to be publicly named. In this three-minute excerpt (edits are marked with white flashes), the employee claims: - An atmosphere of “massive insecurity" - A fear of being doxxed - Their personal data is compromised - DOGE actions have not been approved by President Trump and are the actions of a “few rogue individuals" - DOGE actions are dangerous and illegal - DOGE actions are not serving President Trump’s mandate - Elon is unilaterally making decisions that take help away from the poorest people in the world Many of these claims are clearly untrue on their face, yet no pushback from Brennan was offered. Legacy media is working to undermine DOGE efforts to cut government waste and expose fraud, because legacy media is part of the waste and fraud. The full transcript of this excerpt is provided below, and the full interview is linked in threaded post. --- BRENNAN: Why in our conversation do you think you need to remain anonymous? EMPLOYEE: It has been a very hard, a very hard week. Personally. Professionally, as I said, I live in Washington, D.C. Many of my colleagues work in this field. Starting from January 21st, so the first day of the new administration, things started to go sideways very quickly. The atmosphere of fear that was in the USAID building, which we're no longer in, the atmosphere of fear, in terms of not knowing who was in the building, not knowing what their motivations were, not knowing if our emails or channels were safe, not knowing how to interpret these executive orders right around DEIA or administration priorities. EMPLOYEE: All of that created an atmosphere of massive insecurity. And so people have, I think, lost the ability to know what's true for what's not. At this point, everyone is really scared. EMPLOYEE: And so, you know, I have a daughter, I have a family, like most Americans. And I want to be brave. I think it's really important to share our personal stories at this time, but I am afraid, and I just don't want to put them at any more risk than we have to. BRENNAN: When you say doxxed, there is fear of public sharing of your name and possibly targeting? EMPLOYEE: Absolutely. BRENNAN: By who? EMPLOYEE: Well, I mean, at this point, those members, including Elon Musk, have access to not just the data within the USAID world. Right. And the USAID system, which includes my personal email address, my Social Security number, my entire security file in that security file is every contact I've ever known, every country I've traveled to, every home address I've had. EMPLOYEE: So no matter which way I look at it, my information is entirely compromised and it's in hands that I don't know and don't trust. EMPLOYEE: And yes, the government can be slow. It can be inefficient. It can cost taxpayers money. I do not doubt that at all. What is absolutely clear to me is that methods being used to achieve this so-called efficiency, not only do they not seem to be vetted and approved by the president of the United States or our Secretary, Marco Rubio. EMPLOYEE: They are entirely the actions of a rogue few individuals. They're dangerous. They're illegal. They're cruel more than anything. And so, no, I don't think this is serving American interests or answering to the president's mandates. EMPLOYEE: And so to have this sort of, to be vilified by a billionaire who has decided that he's unilaterally going to take help away from the poorest people in the world, and he's doing it on behalf of the American people is particularly gross and horrifying. And I am angry. I am sad, I am devastated for my colleagues, for myself, for my family, and for the American people.
