The intelligence services of Russia, China, and other foreign adversaries are attempting to recruit U.S. federal workers who lost their jobs in the DOGE-directed massive layoffs, according to a report.

The countries appear to be attempting to take advantage of President Donald Trump’s plans to downsize the federal government, sources familiar with American intelligence on the matter told CNN.

    Scary thing is, these laid off employees may end up working for Russia or China and not even know it. Trump just eliminated many of the rules and regs that might’ve identified a company as a foreign state-owned entity.

      Probably that’s the way Elon and Trump circumvent the “I’m not a traitor, I didn’t sell any classified information”. Probably for a couple of billions, they do these unhinged action items, layoff key employees that Russia and China will hire, and the traitors are the disgruntled employees, not Elon Trump
