The billionaire, owner of companies such as Tesla or Spacex, received a sound applause from all those responsible for government departments.
US President Donald Trump began the first government meeting on Tuesday, in which he gave the word to the Mogan Elon Musk, stating that those who do not agree with their cuts and control plans “can leave.”
Trump again supported the initiatives of Doge (Department of Government Efficiency that Musk idealized) and considered that there is no resistance among his executive members regarding musk heterodox practices regarding civil servants.
“Is there anyone who is unhappy with Elon? If so, let’s expel him from here,” Trump has granted to the vice president, Jd Vance, and the secretaries of all departments that make up the Federal Government of the United States.
Musk, who was the first to speak, although he did not formally play a role in the executive, has been a sonorous applause from all those responsible for government departments.
The Personnel Management Office sent on Friday, following musk instructions, an email message to all federal officials demanding them to list, by the end of Monday, February 24, five tasks that had completed the previous week, otherwise they would be dismissed, but several departments warned their employees that they were not required to respond.
“Musk is sacrificing a lot”
According to the US media, several members of the Trump team are beginning to face the presence of Musk and his work on budget cuts and dismissals such as an inconvenience and interference, which has increased tension within the Republican executive.
“[Musk] It is sacrificing a lot. And it is receiving many compliments, but it is also receiving a lot of criticism, “said Trump.
Elon Musk said his work is only “technical assistance” and that if the doge fails to do his work and the cuts are not done, “the United States go bankrupt.”
About three million email
Tesla Automobile, co-founder, said the ’email’ sent to about three million federal civil servants does not intend to be a performance assessment, but a “pulse” verification or proof that these federal workers actually exist, which Trump repeated.
“There are fictional people who are receiving a salary check” or who have other jobs and, therefore, “these millions [de funcionários] who did not respond are at risk. Maybe, let’s put them on the street, “Trump reiterated.
According to Musk, about half of the federal employees responded to ’email’.
Musk, the richest man on the planet, assured that he does what the president commands him and rejected that there is opposition to his initiatives within the government, considering that the current executive is the most talented and the best “in history.”
