Are Dems really in a panic over what DOGE will uncover with USAID?

"Talked to a friend who has connections within the Democratic Party and he said the level of panic over Trump and Elon shutting down USAID is unlike anything he’s ever seen.

By following the money DOGE has struck a killing blow to the heart of the Democrat deep state machine."

Is this all hyperbole or is there any truth to this? Elon retweeted this BTW.
