Key federal agencies such as the FBI, State Department and Pentagon have instructed their employees not to comply with Elon Musk’s latest demand that they explain what they accomplished last week or risk losing their job.

Summary

Key U.S. agencies, including the FBI, State Department, and Pentagon, are refusing to comply with Elon Musk’s demand that federal employees report their weekly accomplishments to him or risk termination.

The directive, backed by Trump, has sparked chaos, legal concerns, and union threats of lawsuits. Some agencies issued conflicting guidance, while lawmakers from both parties questioned the move’s legality.

Musk falsely claims widespread fraud in government payrolls and has provided no evidence.

Unions demand the request’s withdrawal and an apology.
