and there are many mistakes in the systems.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So we are actually tech support,&#8221; Musk said. &#8220;It&#8217;s ironic, but it&#8217;s true.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/here-agencies-followed-musks-doge-productivity-email-verdict-ones-didnt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>HERE ARE THE AGENCIES THAT FOLLOWED MUSK&#8217;S DOGE PRODUCTIVITY EMAIL VERDICT \u2014 AND THE ONES THAT DIDN&#8217;T<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/343\/192\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/686\/384\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/672\/378\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1344\/756\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/931\/523\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1862\/1046\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/720\/405\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1440\/810\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1200\/675\/gettyimages-2201501800.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1\" alt=\"Musk stands during Cabinet meeting\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" \/><\/picture><\/div>\n<div class=\"info\">\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p>Elon Musk speaks during a cabinet meeting at the White House in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.\u00a0(Al Drago\/Bloomberg via Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>He also defended last week&#8217;s productivity email to federal employees.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/executive\/white-house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">White House<\/a>\u00a0press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday in a press briefing that more than 1 million federal workers participated in the Musk and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) directive to provide a bullet-point list of their work accomplishments from the previous week.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that email was perhaps interpreted as a performance review, but actually it was a pulse check review. Do you have a pulse?&#8221; Musk said. &#8220;And if you have a pulse and two neurons, you could reply to an email.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Musk said the task was &#8220;not a high bar&#8221; and should be something &#8220;anyone could accomplish.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But what we are trying to get to the bottom of is we think there are a number of people on the government payroll who are dead, which is probably why they can&#8217;t respond,&#8221;
