Elon Musk has initiated a controversial email campaign directed at federal employees, demanding they report their weekly accomplishments. This request, framed as a directive from President Trump, has incited considerable turmoil within the federal workforce already grappling with layoffs. Many agency leaders, including the FBI Director, have urged employees to disregard the email until further clarification is provided. The situation illustrates the power struggles and uncertainty inherent in this new directive, with employees feeling pressured yet confused about how to respond.
The emails to federal government employees have begun to hit in-boxes, per sources.
Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week.
Basically every fed employee I've talked to tonight has said their agency head has encouraged them not to respond to the musk email.
The power struggles begin. FBI Director Kash Patel tonight has instructed his employees to ignore @elonmusk's productivity inquiry.
