'GREAT JOB' OR 'NO IDEA WHAT HE'S DOING'? ELON MUSK EMAIL SETS CAPITOL HILL ABLAZE
However, unlike the last email, this one reportedly instructed workers to give five bullet points describing their accomplishments each week, according to multiple reports. The weekly email will allegedly be due by Mondays at 11:59 p.m. EST.
Another key difference, according to CBS News, was an instruction to not send classified or sensitive information. Additionally, those whose work is entirely sensitive or classified were allegedly told to write "All of my activities are sensitive."

When asked about the previous email during Trump’s first full Cabinet meeting on Wednesday, Musk described it as a "pulse check."
"I think that email was perhaps interpreted as a performance review, but actually it was a pulse check review. Do you have a pulse?" Musk said. "And if you have a pulse and two neurons, you could reply to an email."
While meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron in the Oval Office, President Trump defended the email and said that those who don’t answer are at risk of being fired.
