The Democratic Congresswoman didn't mince words when a reporter asked what she'd say if she could speak directly to Musk amid DOGE's continued federal cuts—and the internet is cheering.

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett didn't mince words when a reporter asked what she'd say if she could speak directly to billionaire Elon Musk amid DOGE's continued federal cuts—and the internet is cheering.

Crockett's remark came after Musk sent out an ultimatum to federal workers on Saturday to email the five things they did at work last week or get fired. In an X post, Musk previewed the email from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) directing employees to provide a summary of the tasks they completed.


The message, which was sent to all federal employees later that day, asked employees to respond with “5 bullets of what you accomplished last week” and to copy their manager on the reply. The deadline for submission was Monday at 11:59 p.m. EST. Although he posted that "failure to respond will be taken as a resignation, the email itself made no mention of that.

Amid all this, a reporter asked Crockett the following question outside the Capitol:

"If you could speak directly to Elon Musk, what would you say."

Crockett's response was short, sweet, and to the point:

"F**k off."

You can watch the moment in the video below.

And many felt similarly.




Responses to Musk's email will be processed through an artificial intelligence system to assess the necessity of these jobs, according to three sources familiar with the system.

The information will be entered into an LLM (Large Language Model), an advanced AI system that processes large amounts of text data to analyze, generate, and interpret human language. The AI will then evaluate whether a job is considered mission-critical.

In an email sent to employees earlier on Monday, the Justice Department stated that during a meeting with the interagency Chief Human Capital Officers Council, OPM informed agencies that responding to the email is optional. OPM also clarified that, contrary to Musk's claims, failing to respond does not constitute resignation.

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had a splendid response after South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace attempted to claim that his support for transgender women would bar him from recognizing fraud in his state.

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
