A former government employee's TikTok about her strict dating protocols while working in a sensitive position in Washington has gone viral — and now she's sharing even more information about it. 

Brittany Butler, a mom of young children living in the South, is active today on social media, sharing insights and knowledge from her time working at the CIA as a "targeting officer."

Butler recently touched on a topic that’s turning heads on TikTok: dating.

The full-time author discussed in a video that currently has over 560,000 views what she could and couldn’t share with her boyfriends while working for the government. 

In the video, she said she had two serious boyfriends in her eight years of working at the CIA. 

The first boyfriend, she explained, was Mexican American and a Harvard Law student at the time.

"He and I dated for nine months, and I did have to tell the CIA that I had a serious relationship with him," she said in the TikTok video. 

She added, "The rule is when you have recurring contact with a foreign national, you do have to report it at the CIA."

Butler said she had to provide her then-employer with her boyfriend’s name, date of birth and a brief background. 

As for what she could share about her job with her boyfriend, Butler told Fox News Digital that she would tell men that she "was a consultant for the Department of Defense, making the work sound mundane to avoid further questions."

"In Washington, D.C., many people work in defense or government roles, so saying I was a ‘government consultant’ usually sufficed and people knew not to probe further," she told Fox News Digital. 

Butler began dating her husband while working at the CIA as well. 

She told Fox News Digital that the pair were dating for about four months before she shared her place of work.

"I could talk to him about work personalities and whether I had a good or bad day, but that was the extent of it," she said. 

She added, "I couldn’t discuss specifics about my operational activities due to the clandestine nature of my work."

Butler shared in her TikTok video that her husband was able to visit the CIA headquarters, after giving his Social Security number, where he saw most common areas.

Although she would go on to work for the CIA full-time, Butler told Fox News Digital that she started as an intern with the State Department at the American Embassy in Paris when she was a junior at Florida State University. 

"Encouraged by mentors there, I applied to the CIA and was recruited as a CIA case officer within the Directorate of Operations," she said.

Fox News Digital reached out to the CIA for comment. 

After a series of interviews, standardized tests, psychological assessments and polygraph exams, Butler said she became a targeting officer in the CIA’s Counterterrorism Center — first in the Iraq division and then in the Afghanistan-Pakistan department. 

"The pace of operations was intense and stressful," she said. "As a mother of two young sons, I found it challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance."

After Butler became a mom for the second time, she decided she didn’t want her "boys to suffer from having a mom who was always away," so she left the CIA in 2014 to focus on her family. Today she has three children.

Butler is the author of "The Syndicate Spy: A Juliet Arroway Novel," a mystery published last year. She told Fox News Digital aims to "change the false narratives about women in intelligence."

She is also working on another book. 

Three former advisers to President Obama took aim at President Biden Tuesday as longstanding rumors of tension between the two men's camps continue to linger.

Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett and Tommy Vietor, who were often referred to as the "Obama bros" during their tenure in the White House, dedicated the majority of their latest "Pod Save America" episode to ganging up on Biden following his poor performance in the first presidential debate, and in a subsequent interview.

"I thought it was bad, and, at times, very hard to watch," Vietor said, referencing Biden's sit-down interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos last week that came as part of an effort by the president to quell critics calling for him to exit the presidential race.

"In fairness to Biden, I don't think that interview could have solved the political problem that stemmed from the debate," he said, adding the interview made him "more concerned" because Biden "struggled to speak in a clear, coherent way."

Vietor argued Biden didn't articulate a compelling second-term agenda that would sway swing voters to support him over former President Trump, and that his explanations for his recent poor performance, such as travel and sickness, didn't fully answer for "how bad the debate was."

Lovett agreed and said the interview "was a hard setting for him to succeed, even at his absolute best, because it's hard to justify why it was more than a week after the debate, that it was so brief, and he was only doing one."

"The debate was just a bad night. We all saw it," he said. "The explanations are kind of vague… That doesn't do enough to assuage our concerns about what we saw that night. Right? So, the explanations don't offer anything."

"If you're going to raise the stakes on one interview, it can't be another example of you being hard to understand, not because he's soft, not because he's mumbling, but because his train of thought doesn't make sense," he said. "The stakes are incredibly high. Trump is an incredible threat, but either he will prosecute that case, or someone else will, and right now, we get neither."

Favreau said that although Biden's interview was "more coherent than the debate," he was "worried" Biden's lack of urgency and message meant he might not be able to make up for the debate going forward. He cited recent polling showing Biden trailing Trump in every key swing state.

"What are you going to do to win over voters who are undecided between Biden and Trump when you have that message with George Stephanopoulos?" he asked.

Vietor later said it "seems like a clear-cut choice that we'd have a better chance with someone else," while Lovett argued Biden wasn't "delivering the message effectively."

"That George Stephanopoulos interview was painful to watch," Lovett said. "It was a terrible interview. He did a terrible job articulating why he's in the race, what happened at the debate, and why he's the person to beat Trump. He's doing a terrible job."

The comments come just a day after former Obama adviser David Axelrod said during an appearance on CNN that Biden was "certain" to lose the race to Trump.

"There are certain immutable facts of life," Axelrod said while discussing Biden's age and leadership. "Those were painfully obvious on that debate stage. The president just… hasn't come to grips with it. He’s not winning this race."

Relationships between former and current advisers from the Biden and Obama administrations have reportedly been strained in recent years given the level of criticism aimed at the current president, as well as that he was passed over for the Democratic presidential nomination in favor of Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Obama has, however, spent time defending Biden following his debate performance.
