Managers at various NASA groups are telling employees to hold off on responding to an email sent on Elon Musk’s orders asking people to describe what they had accomplished the previous week.

An email from a manager sent to engineers at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston instructed employees to “PAUSE on any response to the subject email” and cautioned people to be vigilant “to not disclose proprietary or pre-decisional information to unknown recipients without a need to know.”

The Office of Personnel Management told workers replying to billionaire Elon Musk's questions about their job accomplishments was 'voluntary.'

The president’s special commission now has an unprecedented ability to view and manipulate information at many federal agencies.

A federal judge said the unprecedented access DOGE employees have been given at federal agencies likely violates the Privacy Act.
