Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) leader Elon Musk slammed podcast hosts and frequent CNN "experts" Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway via X Saturday, claiming the pair are "cruel, mean and deceitful human beings" who are "threatening" young DOGE professionals.
Tech journalist Kara Swisher and NYU professor Scott Galloway, who host the podcast "Pivot," said in a recent episode they want to see Democratic governors arrest DOGE employees, claiming the team is attempting a coup.
While acknowledging DOGE has the authority to conduct actions ordered by President Donald Trump, Swisher said she didn't like that the team included many young professionals, whom she called "children" and "arrogant little pr---s."
"These idiots, these children, these arrogant little pr---s - come in and say, 'We're going to call the federal marshals, or the President has ordered you to step aside," Swisher said of DOGE sweeping into more than a dozen federal agencies.
DOGE was launched to root out wasteful spending in the government and has nearly closed the entire U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Galloway added he wanted to know the names of the employees so Democratic governors could do "everything in [their] power" to "put them in prison."
