Email Demands Push Federal Workers For Accomplishment Details
Washington reports that President Trump and Elon Musk press federal employees to explain recent accomplishments in new emails. The first email asked workers to list five tasks completed last week and warned of firing for non response. Agencies varied in guidance and many directed employees not to reply. The second email, not from OPM, may come from individual agencies to tighten discipline. The Education Department offered a 25000 buyout amid looming layoffs.

Tariff threats cloud economy as spending slips
Washington trade threats and planned federal job cuts dampen sentiment as January spending falls 0.2 percent while incomes rise. Trump proposes 25 percent tariffs on Canada and Mexico and 20 percent on China, potentially lifting prices and forcing firms to raise costs and cut jobs amid cooling inflation and steady but slower growth projections.
