Alina Habba is the newest administration officer who completely complains federal employees that they should not justify their work to Elon Musk.
She pushes back on the menual task that Musk's Doge demanded that government employees did by sending five listing signs of what they 'achieved at work last week'.
Habba, 40, tore in employees who did not respond to the message and said it was an easy task that they should be able to complete within a few seconds.
“It's very simple, would you like to pay someone to do a job and they don't show up to work?” Habba wondered when he spoke with reporters outside the White House on Tuesday.
“I can mention 5 things – 5 bullets – in about 5 minutes that I entered the office every day,” said Habba. “If you have trouble doing that for a week, there is no excuse for that.”
“Now you can have an extra day to answer it, but it is better to answer it,” she added, referring to any confusion about the timeline for when government employees were obliged to explain what they were doing at work.
It seems that there is a mix of reasons why employees did not respond to the e -mail.
Councilelor of President Alina Habba defended the e -mail that federal employees forced to justify their 'performance' at work last week in the midst of a whole series of questions and recoil on the e -mail of the Doge of Musk
One is that there were conflicting guidelines about whether they could answer the message that came from the HR department of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
Some agencies bosses told their employees that they should not answer and said they would give answers on behalf of their respective departments. This led to a lot of confusion from employees who wondered if they should listen to Musk or their boss.
Habba was sympathetic at that time.
“I think the reasoning is behind that,” she noticed on Tuesday. “You have to understand some of these departments – of course we work with top secrecy information that you might not be allowed to announce.”
“There are many complications that I am not going to do,” she said about the fact that some top officials tell their employees not to answer the e -mail.
But she also stated that it was important for people to listen to what directs President Donald Trump.
“There is one person we should listen to and that is President Trump and what the American people have required, what we do,” she said.
Musk let the OpM -e -mail go out on Saturday night and gave employees a deadline of 11:59 pm on Monday to answer.
Many were irritated that they did not have enough time to answer – claim that at that time people are on leave or without access to their work emails.
It became even worse when Musk placed on X on Saturday that if the 2.3 million employees who received the E -mail did not respond by the deadline, it would be considered a resignation.
Some employees have complained that they are understaffed and have no time to respond after Musk has taken out their agencies and cut billions of contracts for private employees to purchase the load of the federal workforce.
This is what the White House and many Republicans are mainly concerned with.
The e -mail on Saturday came from the Human Resources Department on Opm on the direction of Doge, but some federal employees tell DailyMail.com that not all their colleagues have received the message
“People must be responsible, you must be able to answer the question,” demanded Habba. “The reality is: accountability is real.”
“I can't show up every day to work,” she said. “I have to answer the president and by answering the president I answer the American people.”
If people are still confused, Habba said: “I am not sure why you are confused or why it is so difficult to answer what five things you have done in the past week.”
White House Pers Secretary Karoline Leavitt said during her briefing on Tuesday that she sent an e -mail back to Opm and deputy Staff Chef Taylor Budowich with a part of the work she completed last week.
This included giving a press conference, giving a speech on the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and Trump's speech there and the drafting of Fox News for interviews.
She noted that the e -mail took her only two minutes to set up.
