They Want Blood: How Leftist Activists Are Targeting the DOGE Developers

Vittoria Elliott - Author of the Wired hit piece

It’s the same playbook every time. Some journalist from an activist rag publishes a hit piece, conveniently packed with personal details of their target, and within minutes, the digital mob is unleashed. The latest victims? The DOGE developers, who were doxxed and are now facing a coordinated harassment campaign from the usual corners of the internet.

The goal of these “investigations” is never just to inform—it’s to incite. The moment the names went public, leftist keyboard warriors from Reddit, Bluesky, and beyond sprang into action. Calls for violence, doxxing of family members, and outright threats flooded social media.

This is not just predictable—it’s intentional.

Activist journalists know exactly what they’re doing when they expose individuals in this manner. It’s not journalism; it’s a digital bounty. They may feign ignorance, but the results are always the same. Their readers, ideologically aligned and rabid with self-righteous anger, take over where the journalist leaves off.

And where did this all start? With a @WIRED journalist irresponsibly publishing names. As if on cue, high-profile activist accounts joined in, boosting the effort to publicly expose and endanger private citizens.

If this were the other way around—if a conservative journalist had doxxed a left-wing activist—the outrage machine would be in full gear. Big Tech would be deplatforming, the media would be crying “harassment,” and politicians would be calling for hearings.

But since it’s the left doing the targeting? Silence.

But...with the new US Attorney things may be changing:
