DOGE Derangement Syndrome: Woman Arrested After Allegedly Promising to ‘Blow Everything up’ at Federal Building
A new incident has emerged involving a former employee of Freddie Mac, Maria Del Carmen Lozano, who was arrested after allegedly livestreaming threats to blow up the federal housing office in virginia. Reportedly inspired by her feelings of injustice after mass layoffs at the agency, she claimed to have “hacked the brain using artificial intelligence.” Despite being apprehended during a traffic stop for bomb threats and trespassing, lozano was released and continued to express her delusional thoughts online. The Fairfax County Police are monitoring the situation, as the FBI has also gotten involved due to the alarming nature of her threats. Her actions appear to be part of a broader societal issue termed “DOGE Derangement Syndrome,” referencing the recent influence of cryptocurrencies on individuals’ behaviors. this incident raises concerns about workplace mental health and the consequences of excessive job cuts in government agencies.
A new variant of Trump Derangement Syndrome has emerged — DOGE Derangement Syndrome.
On Thursday, the U.K.’s Daily Mail reported on an exclusive video allegedly taken by Maria Del Carmen Lozano, a fired technology worker from Freddie Mac who allegedly livestreamed herself driving to the federal housing loan services building outside Washington D.C.
The footage was taken Tuesday as the person the news outlet identified as Lozano was headed to the offices located in McLean, Virginia. Although she was not seen in the video, a voice could be heard saying, “I’m about to blow everything up in Freddie Mac right now,” adding, “This is real, not fake.”
After repeating her plans, she told viewers, “We have hacked the brain using artificial intelligence.”

The speaker continued her bizarre rant, appearing to talk to specific people in a manner that may have indicated she was having a schizophrenic episode.
“Freddie Mac as an investor has hacked the brain,” she said, adding that she helped them do this and was not paid for it.
Fairfax County Police arrested her during a traffic stop after warrants were issued for bomb threats and trespassing.
Shockingly, the Mail reported, Lozano was released Thursday and continued her delusions via live stream.
After his confirmation two weeks ago, Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte — who was in the building at the time of the threat — has fired 200 people, but the Mail said Lozano was not part of those firings.
An unnamed source told the British news outlet that after Lozano was released from custody, she called the offices, demanding to speak with Pulte.
Before she was apprehended Tuesday, she reportedly went to the Freddie Mac offices Tuesday and drove around, but never entered the building or left her car.
The FBI is reportedly “monitoring the situation.”
Lozano appears misguided, delusional, and dangerous, but she was not even one of those fired as part of ongoing efforts to reduce spending.
On Thursday, the Washington Post reported it had obtained a White House document detailing future cuts.
Twenty-two agencies are targeted for reductions, with some being downsized by as much as one-half of their current staff.
The Department of Government Efficiency is at the center of this work. Is Lozano showing us what DOGE Derangement Syndrome will look like in the coming months?
It’s bad enough that Tesla owners have their cars keyed and dealerships and charging stations have been targeted, but bomb threats are on another level of terror.
The Trump administration needs to work with DOGE and help keep Americans safe as it completes its work.
