I was pressured by government officials to say and do things that would harm others. They even hacked my phone and sent me a tracking notification. They offered me money and tried to persuade me to lie. They also mentioned an AI hacker who could manipulate media to their advantage, paid by the National Congress. I left the country out of fear for my safety. I don't want to blame others, but I'm scared something might happen to me. I want to share this with you, just like I did in the statement they wrote for me.

I believe the people of this country are being violated. Our privacy is being taken from us by figures like Elon Musk and Donald Trump. We are unaware of the extent of the information they possess about us, and this lack of knowledge is deeply concerning.

There's support for clearing government waste on both sides, but also concern about the access Musk and Doge staffers have to sensitive data, especially given Musk's investments with China. As a congressman, I can say that the IRS has been a nightmare. When I write letters of concern for my constituents, it takes up to six months to get a response. The IRS has hundreds of groups with access to sensitive information, yet there were no complaints. Now that Elon Musk is involved and potentially making changes, suddenly everyone is upset. If you have nothing to hide, you have no reason to be asking questions. Congressmen will be in trouble when this paper trail leads back to them.

As a policy advisor for the Treasury, I work on national security risks, monitoring investments into the US. Recently, Doge gained access to the Treasury to cut waste. I think we're an easy target, and there are people here who don't do much. My colleagues and I are worried about Doge and potential firings. What Elon is doing feels like government-sanctioned harassment. People here think it's not going to fire the right people, it's going to fire the wrong people. Many of us in my office are worried about being fired, especially the new hires. Some people care more about money than the country. I also feel that Doge shouldn't have access to the Treasury due to national security risks. No one knows what they want to do with the system. Giving people access to information creates vulnerabilities.

As a former 18-year veteran of the Department of Justice, I now lead a group called Justice Connection, aiding current DOJ employees facing demotions, firings, and threats from various sources, including January 6th rioters and those believing in the "deep state" narrative. These individuals are terrified for their careers and personal safety due to increased doxxing and harassment. The current environment within the FBI and DOJ is destabilized, impacting morale and daily functions, making it harder to focus on critical tasks like counterterrorism. While the administration defends personnel moves as aligning with its priorities, the safety and security of dedicated DOJ employees is at risk, especially with doxxing and harassment being criminal offenses.

It's been two weeks since everything changed. I lost my job last night – a devastating blow after seven years as a shift lead on a project studying the wheels on the bus. Elon Musk's actions with USAID have had real consequences for me and my family. I'm unemployed, and I don't know what to tell my kids. This isn't a joke; it's affecting real people. The worst part? We may never know if the wheels on the bus go round and round, and nobody seems to care. This situation is incredibly serious and deeply upsetting.

I was pressured by government officials to say and do things that would harm others. They even hacked my phone and sent me a tracking notification. They offered me money and tried to persuade me to lie. They also mentioned an AI hacker that could manipulate media to their advantage, paid by the National Congress.

Elon Musk and his team have imposed a gag order on AID employees, disconnecting them from email and jeopardizing lives globally. We are entering the building to gather firsthand accounts from those at AID or witnesses regarding Musk's attempted takeover, which we will not allow to succeed. We will prevail.

There's support for clearing government waste on both sides of the aisle, but also concern about the access Musk and Doge staffers have to sensitive data, especially given Musk's investments with China and billions from the government. When PayPal was owned by Elon Musk, there were no security breaches. The IRS is a nightmare, with folks not back to work years after COVID. As a Congressman, it takes me up to six months to get a response regarding constituent concerns. The IRS has hundreds of groups with access to sensitive data. People are only complaining now that Elon Musk is involved. The only reason to ask questions is if you're doing something crooked. Congressmen will have red faces when this paper trail leads back to them. People are pitching a fit because Musk is making needed changes.

This past week has been incredibly difficult, both personally and professionally. Since the new administration began, a climate of fear has permeated my workplace. We're unsure who to trust, and the constant uncertainty is terrifying. My information, including personal details and contacts, has been compromised. I'm worried about my family's safety, and that's why I'm remaining anonymous. The methods used to achieve supposed efficiency are dangerous, illegal, and cruel. They haven't been approved by the President or Secretary Rubio, and they're the actions of a rogue few. Being vilified by a billionaire who's cutting aid to the world's poorest is horrifying. I'm angry, sad, and devastated for my colleagues, my family, and the American people.

People are really scared because overnight, many lost their next paycheck and ability to pay for childcare and medical bills. Christina Drey and Adam Dubard were fired this month amidst the chaotic shutdown of foreign aid distributed by USAID. Over 8,000 USAID employees were sent home, not based on competency but on loyalty tests. These are people with decades of public service across administrations, and they had to leave the building immediately. As far as I know, they received an email, and if they didn't leave, they were escorted out. There was no process or explanation given to them.

Elon Musk and his team have imposed a gag order on AID employees, cutting off their email access and potentially endangering lives globally. We are entering the building to gather firsthand accounts from anyone present at AID or who has witnessed the situation regarding Musk's attempted takeover. We are determined to stand against this and will prevail.

I discussed some of the concerning individuals surrounding Musk. Does this surprise you? Sadly, no. It's a familiar pattern. Experienced professionals aren't drawn to such chaotic and toxic environments. This approach appeals to a specific type of person, as we saw at Twitter. Inexperienced engineers evaluated our code, and we endured loyalty exercises like printing code and justifying our work—a demoralizing and insulting process. I'm hearing similar accounts of long-tenured federal employees facing similar humiliating situations. This is insulting to the dedicated federal employees who work hard daily. It's truly unacceptable.

I work at the Treasury, reviewing investments into the US for national security risks. Recently, Doge gained access to the Treasury to cut waste, but I think we're an easy target. People I know have worked for the government for years and don't do much. Doge shouldn't have access to the Treasury due to national security risks. It's weird because no one knows what they want to do with the system or why they need access to random people's tax information. Giving people this kind of access creates vulnerabilities. They could misuse the information or give it to another country. Elon's actions feel like government-sanctioned harassment. Everyone in my office is worried about getting fired. Some people care more about money than the country.

I'm declining to be named in your story. I haven't given any quotes. My name is James O'Keefe. We have you on hidden camera talking about Elon Musk, Doge, and unlawful activities at Treasury. I encourage you to speak on the record. We have you on video saying government colleagues don't do much, and Doge targets us because it's easy. I'm a reporter. People deserve to know what you've said. Why did you share this with a stranger but not me? You specialize in foreign policy at the Treasury. What are you afraid of? It'll look bad when you won't speak to me, but you told a stranger everything. This is a major public policy issue. I'm running this story with or without you. I think the people need to know what's happening inside the government, including risks to national security.

I lost my job last night, just two weeks after the recent changes initiated by Elon Musk regarding USAID. I've been a shift lead on a project for seven years, and now I'm unemployed. This situation has serious consequences for real people like me. I’m left wondering how to explain this to my family and kids. The impact of these decisions is not just theoretical; it affects lives. What if we never find out if the wheels on the bus go round and round? Does anyone care about the real implications of these changes?

Elon Musk's influence is increasingly felt within the administration. Recently, the Doge team visited USAID offices in Washington, demanding access. An employee described the tense atmosphere: they removed pride flags and any potentially incriminating materials. There was silence among staff, and it was reported that transcripts of Google Meets were being recorded automatically. They unplugged the news in the kitchen areas, creating an unsettling environment. By Saturday, all websites were down, and the employee lost complete access to their computer.

If we didn't have our current protections, there would be a lot of problems. We'd essentially be a sanctuary program. I oversee a team that develops professional development for teachers in adult education programs, including ESL and citizenship classes. Luckily, we've strategically managed to keep status questions out of our federal statute by maneuvering around problematic bill additions. Conversations now have to be taken offline due to increased surveillance. We've moved to using Signal, an encrypted messaging app, for secure communications. Elon Musk's "Doge team" has taken over the secretary's floor, monitoring our computers and calls. People are leaving in droves and getting paid to do nothing, so if you find me in Mexico, that's why.

I want to show you something. I was going to let this go, but I can't. Hello. I don't know how to do this, but I want to tell you all that I have been pressured by government officials to do and say things to harm others. They even hacked my phone and I received a tracking notification. This happened after meeting with government officials who, besides that, offered me everything and a large sum of money. They also tried to persuade me to lie and arrange a meeting with the president if I caused harm.

I work for the Treasury, reviewing investments into the US for national security risks. Recently, Doge gained access to the Treasury to cut waste, but people are resisting. They're an easy target because there are people who don't do much, and we should be getting rid of them. What Elon is doing feels like government-sanctioned harassment, and everyone in my office is worried about being fired. No one knows what Doge wants to do with the system or why they need access to certain information. When you give people access, it creates vulnerabilities. They could take that information and give it to someone they shouldn't. There's a class of people in this country who care more about money, and Elon is showing that what he cares about is money.

I've noticed some concerning activity from Elon Musk. He's now claiming that democracy in America is being destroyed by a judicial coup. Further, he's hired a 19-year-old, who goes by Big Balls online, to work inside Doge. My team and I investigated this individual's background and found he founded multiple companies, including Tesla dot sexy LLC when he was around 16. These young men, some as young as 19, now have access to private information about potentially hundreds of millions of Americans. I seriously doubt that Musk has properly vetted any of these individuals, especially given some of the names of these companies. This seems to be a feature and not a bug.

Elon Musk has targeted the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), removing two top leaders who resisted him. Employees were abruptly told not to come to the office and many were locked out of their accounts. Similar actions are occurring in the Treasury Department, where Musk and his associates now have access to sensitive federal payment systems and personal information of federal employees. There's been a lack of a clear and united response from leading Democrats to these developments, with some voices emerging during confirmation hearings but overall responses being slow and often vague. It's unclear what actions are being taken to counter this takeover.

Let's be clear: Elon Musk, the world's wealthiest man, contributed heavily to Donald Trump's election. Since then, his wealth has skyrocketed, and he's now targeting USAID, a vital program aiding the world's poorest. This is unacceptable. His next targets will likely be programs impacting families directly—Medicaid, Medicare, education, affordable housing, and more. We must fight back. This country is a democracy; our government should work for everyone, not just billionaires. Let's organize and tell Trump that this isn't right. We can stop this. We can protect these essential programs and ensure a government that serves all its citizens. Let's stand together and fight for what's right. Thank you.

I work for the Treasury, reviewing investments into the U.S. for national security risks, like we initially did with TikTok. My team monitors agreements with companies to ensure they address identified problems. Recently, Doge gained access to the Treasury to cut waste, and I admit we're an easy target. Some colleagues don't do much, and we should get rid of them. What Elon is doing feels like government-sanctioned harassment. Everyone in my office is worried about being fired. There's a class of people who care more about money than the country. Doge shouldn't have access to the Treasury due to national security risks. It's weird; no one knows what they want to do with the system or why they need access to sensitive information. Someone with access could give that information away, even if they're American.

Good afternoon. We're here today to evict Doge and Elon Musk from the Office of Personnel Management and declare that Doge is done. We're fighting to protect the merit-based civil service and the rights, resources, and protections it provides. DEI, or diversity, equity, and inclusion, is under attack, but it truly stands for civil rights. This is an illegal operation, dismantling services important to every American family. Elon Musk spent millions to elect Donald Trump, and now Trump is giving Musk control of federal agencies. We need to expose this corrupt bargain and fight back against this betrayal.
