Concerns about espionage have surged as former President Donald Trump and entrepreneur Elon Musk have initiated widespread layoffs, affecting thousands of federal workers. Intelligence experts are sounding alarms regarding the potential risks associated with the termination of these employees, many of whom were considered loyal patriots. Reports indicate that foreign entities, particularly from Russia and China, may seize this opportunity to hunt for informants within the U.S. Furthermore, the situation raises fears that former employees could become targets for espionage, posing increased risks to national security.
