Lefist journalist Kara Swisher and author Scott Galloway discussed how Democrats need to “go gangster” against the Trump administration by targeting the engineers of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for arrest.
In an appearance on Swisher’s “Pivot” podcast on Friday, Galloway explained that Democrats need to start looking into arresting Musk’s DOGE programmers because they’re committing a “coup” against the establishment by investigating government budgets.
“I want to know who these young, highly intelligent, highly motivated zealots following him into these buildings and shutting off payments to schools and head starts, I want to know their names,” Galloway said.

“I want to know who their names are. I want to see Democrat governors saying, ‘I’m going to do everything in my power to use the full faith and to the letter of the law to put you folks in prison. I think what you’re doing is trespassing, I think this is a coup.'”
“And be clear, just because the new insurrectionist who was elected, you know, ‘I don’t believe this is legal, and I’m going to hold the people accountable, who are trespassing and are part of a coup, accountable,'” he continued.
Galloway demanded the Democrats expose the identities of all the young DOGE engineers and have them arrested by local law enforcement.
“To just sit back and say this is horrible and this is unlawful…we need to go gangster here. And say, look, we’re not negotiating around this stuff. This is illegal. This is a coup. This is the unlawful seizure of power. We’re not going to engage in these bullshit ridiculous arguments over Gaza and Greenland,” he said.
“We are going to hold the people accountable. Here are their names, here are their faces. And we have contacted the local authorities in where these kids live, these young adults, and we are going to hold them accountable,” Galloway added.
But Swisher pointed out to Galloway that little can be done because the “arrogant little pricks” at DOGE have the authority under President Donald Trump to investigate these agencies, like the USAID, Dept. of Treasury, and the Department of Education.
“The question is, a lot of them are literally asking me, ‘What do we do to stop him?’ Swisher said. “I was like, ‘You don’t. You actually don’t have the means to do so.'”
“Because these poor people are in these agencies, and when these idiots come in, these children, these arrogant little pricks, come in and say ‘we’re going to call these Federal Marshalls’ or ‘the president has ordered you to step aside,’ they kinda have to.”
“You have to be resistant, and be walked out by security. And then security doesn’t know which one to listen to, essentially,” she added.
Democrat lawmakers on Friday marched to the Department of Education building in Washington, D.C. on Friday to stop DOGE from conducting its audit of the agency but were stopped by federal security standing guard.
