Karoline Leavitt – the White House Press Secretary – has revealed she fired off an email listing everything she’d achieved last week, as per a controversial request made by Elon Musk.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0tech<\/a>\u00a0boss sparked backlash by sending an ultimatum to\u00a0federal workers<\/a>\u00a0in several departments threatening people’s jobs.<\/p>\n

Staff from the likes of the State Department, the FBI, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Veterans Affairs Department all received an email on Sunday , ordering them to\u00a0comply within 48 hours or risk being let go<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The cryptic message was titled ‘HR’ and the subject line read: “What did you do last week?”<\/p>\n

Musk<\/a>‘s email then continued: “Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager.”<\/p>\n

Staff were asked not to include links, attachments or classified information, and given a deadline to send over the information by 11.59pm on Monday.<\/p>\n

Writing on X, the Tesla CEO explained: “Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump\u2019s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week.<\/p>\n

“Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”<\/p>\n

The request comes following Musk’s appointment as one of 78-year-old Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) co-leads, after which he described cuts to government\u00a0funding<\/a>\u00a0as ‘common sense’ measures\u00a0in a White House speech<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Though a handful of agency heads reportedly\u00a0warned their employees not to reply to Musk’s email<\/a>, Trump’s press secretary Karoline Leavitt has emphasised the opposite message.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old revealed on Tuesday that she’d abided by Musk’s request, and her fired off an email to Taylor Budowich – a political consultant and the current White House Deputy Chief of Staff. A screengrab of the email was subsequently shared online.<\/p>\n

“Hello Taylor,” Leavitt begins in the message. “In an effort of transparency and accountability, I am pleased to inform you of 5 tasks that I completed last week, though the list of everything that I completed is much longer.<\/p>\n

“See below.”<\/p>\n

She then includes a bullet point run-down of her weekly duties:<\/p>\n
