Elon Musk, the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), issued a warning to federal workers regarding their return to the office. Musk stated that those who fail to comply with President Trump's executive order to return to work will be placed on administrative leave after receiving over a month's notice. Employees were instructed to report their accomplishments from the previous week or face potential job loss.
There was confusion among federal agencies as some resisted Musk's directive while others encouraged compliance. Key agencies like the FBI, State Department, Homeland Security, and the Pentagon advised their employees not to comply. The Department of Health and Human Services initially instructed its employees to comply but later paused activities related to the request.
