Federal workers received a midnight deadline to comply with Elon Musk's second demand for reports on their work accomplishments, a request that has become a flashpoint within the government workforce70bet, reported AP.

Elon Musk and President Donald Trump have suggested that workers who don’t comply could be fired.

Haaland, who has been nominated for the Ballon d'Or award for the best soccer player in the world this year, has been in outstanding form this season with his latest goal taking his total for the campaign to 10 in all competitions.

But Diego Simeone's side found themselves a goal down in the 35th minute when Isi Palazon turned home Raul de Tomas' cross after good work from Jorge de Frutos.

According to a report by AP, they've also described the requirement—a list of five things that each person did last week—as an unobjectionable way to increase accountability within a sprawling bureaucracy.

But for many workers, the request has been a source of anxiety and confusion as the new administration tightens its grip on the federal government. Some agencies are still telling their workforces not to respond or to limit what they say in response, just as they did after Musk's first request last month.

Employees were told to write back with “a high level of generality" and not include any sensitive data, discuss specific grants,betef or identify colleagues that they're working with.

Similar guidance was provided at the Department of Energy, which plays a key role in managing the nation’s nuclear arsenal.

"Do not include any sensitive or classified information, and do not send any links or attachments. If all your activities are sensitive, please reply. All of my activities are sensitive," wrote Energy Secretary Chris Wright, as quoted by AP.

Meanwhile, the State Department on Saturday told its workforce that department leadership would respond on their behalf. And the Federal Bureau of Prisons said, "Employees could respond that disclosure of my duties may compromise institution security or operations."

The FBI workforce was told that Director Kash Patel's previous guidance instructing employees to hold off on responding “remains in effect until further notice.".

The initial demand for lists of five accomplishments came last month. The Office of Personnel Management eventually told agencies that it was optional despite Musk's threat of layoffs for noncompliance.

Musk described the requirement as a “pulse check" during Trump's first Cabinet meeting of his second term.

"Do you have a pulse and two neurones?. So if you have a pulse and two neurones, you can reply to an email, " he said.
