This is a once in a lifetime opportunity - Expose the fraud, expose the illegality, expose the truth!
Looks like “accountability” is the dirtiest word in the lexicon of the federal workforce. Let’s briefly review what set off this particular firestorm.
At 2:46 pm on Saturday, February 22, 2025, Elon Musk posted on X:
Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump’s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.
Later in the day, this email was sent from OPM to employees:
Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager. Please do not send any classified information, links, or attachments. Deadline was this past Monday at 11:59 pm EST.
The Genius Behind the Strategy:
President Trump responded Monday revealing perhaps the main reason for these emails:
We have people that don’t show up to work and nobody even knows if they work for the government so by asking the question ‘tell us what you did this week,’ what he’s doing is saying are you actually working. And then, if you don’t answer, like, you’re sort of semi-fired or you're fired … a lot of people are not answering because they don't even exist. [Emphasis added.]
So there really is a touch of genius in this strategy — as it will expose employees who may have died, or moved to another country, or never even existed.
