Breakfast Club Caller Saying She’s Federal Worker Rips Fellow Gov Employees Complaining About Musk’s DOGE: ‘If You Don’t Like It, Resign!’
A caller into The Breakfast Club radio show tore into critics complaining about Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) during a segment where Charlamagne Tha God asked for federal workers to call on vent on Musk’s sweeping cuts.
The latest development to earn pushback from Musk’s critics was a DOGE email sent to federal government employees asking them to break down their jobs and justify them or resign. The email caused some concern as Musk’s DOGE is looking to make massive cuts in government spending and federal employees. The Department of Defense informed their employees to ignore the email.
On Tueday’s The Breakfast Club, callers mostly expressed concerns about Musk and the email — one woman even said she was terminated and then brought back amid the DOGE confusion — but one caller who chose to remain anonymous blasted her fellow federal employees. The Florida woman claimed she worked for the Department of Health and Human Services.
“I got the email and I honestly feel like this is a great opportunity to outline what you as an employee bring to the company — you know, bring to the federal government, and if it’s really good what you outline they can give you an opportunity to get a promotion or something,” she said.
Such emails would be normal at another job, the caller added.
“God forbid they ask you what you’ve done. Any other job, they’ll ask you at the end of the week, at the end of the month,” she said.
The woman also claimed that remote workers are using a device to make it appear as if they are working as many government remote jobs will track the progress and activity status of employees’ computers.
“People are actually buying it and using it and not working. And this is our taxpayers’ money, and you have to work,” she said. “You don’t like it, get another job.”
The woman also took a shot at Democrats despite saying she didn’t want to “bring the parties” into the talk.
“It’s this Democratic thing. It’s like, I don’t want to get the parties into it, but they don’t want to go to work. They want to work from home. People are not working from home,” she said.
“I like talking to people who are in it, because everybody sees things a different way,” Charlamagne said after the call.
The radio host explained during the show that he’s not against the overall mission of DOGE to cut government waste, but he objects to the way they’ve gone about it.
“I’m not against what DOGE is doing, I’m against how they’re doing it. That’s the thing,” he said. “There’s a constitutional, lawful way to do what they want to do.”
