Deadline for Musk's ultimatum to federal workers hits, but consequences remain vague
Fox News
Billionaire Elon Musk says federal employees will get a second chance to respond to work accountability requests after Monday night's deadline passed.
Several government agencies, including those led by loyalists to President Donald Trump, told their employees not to respond to the original request from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). While Musk himself suggested on social media that refusing to respond to the email would be "taken as a resignation," the actual email from OPM made no mention of such consequences.

"Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager," the OPM request read, making no threats of termination.
