Summary

Federal agencies, including FEMA, IRS, NOAA, CDC, DOE, and the Pentagon, were surprised by an OPM email, directed by Elon Musk, demanding employees list weekly accomplishments.

Agencies are advising staff to delay responding, pending further guidance. Some, like the FBI, have instructed a “pause.” NOAA recommended waiting until Monday for potential clarification.

Musk stated non-compliance would be considered resignation. Agencies are now seeking clarity from Treasury and other departments on how to proceed with the unprecedented request.

    Oh, stop trying to make sense of nonsense…

    Occam’s razor suggests this is simply a “see how many don’t respond by the deadline so I can say they resigned and are off the books adding to my already bogus count of cost savings”.

    Just a schoolyard level ploy…

    Come on. 🤷‍♂️
