Billionaire Elon Musk has mandated that all federal employees report their weekly accomplishments by Monday, threatening resignation for non-compliance. This directive, criticized by unions, follows mass layoffs affecting hundreds of thousands of workers across various government departments under the Trump administration. Many agencies reported confusion over the authenticity of the email request, and some have advised employees not to respond. Musk, serving as a cost-cutting advisor, celebrated this effort to cut federal waste, but labor leaders condemned the initiative as disrespectful and swift in coming during ongoing workforce reductions.
