Patel tells the FBI’s employees to stop any responses to DOGE e -mail

Cash Patel, director of the FBI, requested to stop answering an email, which was sent in the direction of the billionaire technology, Elon Musk, and asked federal workers to include their achievements during the previous week.

In a note obtained by NewSnation, Patel said that the office will deal with future responses to the OPM Affairs Office (OPM).

Patel wrote in his letter: “The FBI’s employees may have received an OPM e -mail requesting information,” Patel wrote in his letter. “The FBI, through the manager’s office, is responsible for all our reviews, and will conduct reviews according to the procedures of the FBI.”

“When more information is needed and if we will coordinate the responses,” Patel continued. “Currently, please stop any responses.”

Musk – who led the White House effort to cut the federal government – on Saturday afternoon on its social platform X that federal employees will soon get an email message “asking them to understand what they did last week.”

“The failure to respond will be considered a resignation,” he added.

“Please reply to this email with approximately 5 bullet points for what it completed last week,” their manager’s copy, by 11:59 pm EST on Monday.

The FBI is not alone in directing its employees not to respond to the email, at least at the present time.

NBC News stated that the Foreign Ministry also ordered its employees not to respond.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will respond on behalf of the administration. There is no employee obligated to report his activities outside their section leadership series,” read a notification from Tibor Nagy, who behaves in the administration management system in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The hill continues to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to comment.
