Senator Calls Elon Musk a Dick Over Federal Employee Mandate
Senator Tina Smith (D-Minn.) criticized Elon Musk’s demand that federal employees justify their positions or face termination, deeming it an abusive power move. This mandate, delivered via a Saturday night email requesting weekly accomplishments, followed President Trump’s urging for Musk to be more aggressive in his role at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk defended the email as a “trivial task,” while Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.) countered that Musk lacks understanding of government spending and accountability. The DOJ has clarified that Musk is only a White House advisor, despite Trump’s assertion to the contrary.
