Of course Elon and Trump, who represent the worst of America, have the audacity to say:

The federal workforce should be comprised of the best America has to offer.

They sort of do, just under a different name: Government Bonds

No, bonds are a distinctly different asset class, specifically, with a fixed rate of return and maturity period.

Elon wants only "hardcore" federal workers so that he can lead them into barely surviving.

Of course President Musk wrote the email. Who else would?

You could have a lot of fun with email spoofing replies to that email.
