Elon Musk has issued a controversial directive affecting federal employees, including air traffic controllers, demanding they submit weekly accomplishment reports or face forced resignation. In an email sent Saturday by the Office of Personnel Management—now dominated by Musk loyalists—controllers and other federal staff were ordered to list five tasks they completed last week and copy their manager.

“Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation,” Musk posted on X, escalating tensions within key government agencies. The directive raises concerns about operational stability in air traffic control, a field where staffing shortages can have serious safety implications.

The move follows former President Trump’s call for Musk to take a more aggressive stance in his federal oversight role, emphasizing his commitment to reshaping government operations.

  1. “former President Trump”? What the crap is this? Have you leftist degenerates lost your mind?

  2. Why don’t they all go on strike. See how the economy does without air travel for a couple days.

    Who’s gonna fill in for them? Musk? X-D

  3. So President Musk is running the country. Trump is Just a partner in this relationship.
    Disaster is coming to the US

  4. Musk wants to replace them by AI eventually… He can’t get FSD to work, but no reason he can’t get this…. Right?

  5. Bruh, it’s a bullet list of five items, it’s the equivalent to a third-grade weekly report.

  6. This MAGA ( make America great again) is going beyond the imagination and capability of one or two current Presidents, but not at all entertaining!!!!

  7. The work load of these people must be really high. All their work is logged rigorously. So I could imagine that information Elon wants can be easily extracted from the shift and flight planning databases.

  8. Musk is not an American, he and Putin are going to destroy the west. That is their goal. And that idiot we have in the white House is under their control.

  9. Maybe if Tesla (Musk) paid tax on the 2.1 BILLION {2024} and the previous years the USA might be in a better place

  10. I have a great idea… Instead of making sure planes don’t fall from the sky, hit each other, ensure they have directives as to weather conditions, other nearby aircraft, or let them know where an airplane having an emergency can land immediately… Drop whatever you’re doing, and provide a list of your accomplishments from the last week. How bout starting with: ensured 1,000 (or whatever they handle) airplanes took off and landed safely with tens of thousands of passengers aboard?

  11. The adjective ‘former’ doesn’t apply to ‘President Trump’, but to ‘call’. Thus you should read ‘President Trump’s former call…’. On a side note, we are not leftist degenerates but simply Europeans who still have their full mind and find it sometimes difficult to follow recent American politics.
