Hours after President Trump called on DOGE chief Elon Musk to \u201cget more aggressive,\u201d Musk announced on Saturday afternoon that an email would be going out soon to federal employees asking them to explain what they had done last week.<\/p>\n

Musk ominously stated, \u201cFailure to respond will be taken as a resignation\u201d However, there is some doubt as to whether federal rules for resignations cover the failure to respond to an email.<\/p>\n

American Federation of Government Employees union (AFGE) President Everett Kelley slammed Musk\u2019s email questionnaire in a statement issued Saturday<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cOnce again, Elon Musk and the Trump Administration have shown their utter disdain for federal employees and the critical services they provide to the American people.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is cruel and disrespectful to hundreds of thousands of veterans who are wearing their second uniform in the civil service to be forced to justify their job duties to this out-of-touch, privileged, unelected billionaire who has never performed one single hour of honest public service in his life.<\/p>\n

\u201cAFGE will challenge any unlawful terminations of our members and federal employees across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Politico reported<\/a> the email has been received by workers across the government, \u201cThe email appears to have been sent broadly across the government. Employees in the State Department, the National Institute of Health, the General Services Administration, Veteran Affairs, the Food and Drug Administration and other agencies all received a copy.\u201d<\/p>\n
