Justice, State dept. and DOD tell federal employees not to respond to Musk’s demands
SUMMARY: A backlash is growing over President Trump’s effort to shrink the federal government, as key agencies advise employees against responding to Elon Musk’s email requesting their accomplishments. Musk’s demands have created confusion and concern, with deadlines passing and threats of termination for non-response. Congressional representatives face voter anger over job cuts, while Musk attempts to expose waste and fraud. Although Trump’s remarks praise Musk’s strategy, critics argue it undermines effective governance. Meanwhile, several agencies, including Justice, State, and Defense, maintain that responding to Musk is voluntary, leaving the federal workforce frustrated and anxious amidst ongoing layoffs, particularly at the Veterans Affairs Department.

What to know amid the Texas measles outbreak | NBC4 Washington
SUMMARY: A measles outbreak in Texas has resulted in at least 90 cases this year, primarily affecting unvaccinated individuals. Local officials warn that the highly contagious virus could spread beyond Texas. A survivor, Elizabeth Wild, recounted her severe experience with measles and expressed concern over the declining perception of vaccine safety. Measles symptoms include fever, cough, and rash, with potential severe complications. The measles vaccine, deemed safe and effective, has saved millions of lives. Parents are encouraged to ensure their children receive the vaccine on schedule, with the option to adjust for infants under one year if needed.

Doctors say it’s possible the highly contagious virus could spread to other states. News4’s Aimee Cho spoke with a woman who survived having measles as a child, but still lives with the effects decades later.
