In this episode, we dive into Elon Musk’s controversial directive that demanded every federal employee report their weekly accomplishments in just five bullet points—or risk being deemed resigned. We break down how this oversimplification of complex federal operations not only exposes a fundamental misunderstanding of government work but also raises serious legal and ethical questions about authority and due process. With insights from experts, reactions from Trump loyalists, and a look at the broader impact on morale and public service, we explore how this reactionary power play is turning established bureaucracy into a battleground of chaos.
