Fox News host Jesse Watters implored people to be “a little bit less callous” when speaking about the people facing job cuts at the Department of Government Efficiency as he sympathized with a friend working at the Pentagon anticipating being laid off.
Watters, who previously championed Musk’s task of cutting the federal workforce, deviated from his usual rhetoric blindly backing DOGE during Wednesday’s episode of The Five, saying, “I finally found one person I knew who got DOGE’d and hit me in the heart.”
