What updates are covered in today's AM Update?
Good morning, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. It's Wednesday, February 26th, 2025, and this is your AM Update.
The president and Elon and his entire cabinet are working as one unified team, and they are implementing these very common-sense solutions.
Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt provides some clarity to the Doge What Did You Do Last Week email confusion and announces a major change to the White House press access.
Congressman McCormick was not exactly welcomed home at a town hall meeting in Roswell, Georgia last night.
Media reveling in chaotic GOP town halls, using the scenes as proof of bipartisan backlash against Doge. But there's more to the story. And a Texas border rancher killed by an improvised explosive device near the border, who authorities say is behind the deadly blast. All that and more coming up in just a moment on your AM Update. Here's one way to clean up your medicine cabinet this season and replace toxin-filled conventional products with more natural options. Propolis immune support throat spray and Propolis Plus vitamin C liposomal can be must-haves in the medicine cabinet as seasonal germs start to hit. Did you know germs can enter through your nasal passages just as easily as through your mouth?
Propolis nasal spray is a great non-toxic swap for other over-the-counter drug-filled medications. This one's non-habit forming, it's natural, and it has antimicrobial benefits. Beekeepers Naturals makes clean, non-toxic products that actually work. They never use harmful ingredients like red dye number three or other synthetic dyes or artificial flavors. Their products are third-party tested for all pesticides, and they're dedicated to sustainable beekeeping and helping to save the bees.

How is Elon Musk's email affecting the government?
Beekeepers Naturals products are also available at Target, Whole Foods, Walmart, CVS, and Walgreens. Six words rocking the federal workforce. What did you do last week? The Saturday email initially came with a deadline of 11.59 p.m. Monday and a warning from Elon Musk. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation. Some departments like the FBI, Homeland Security, and the Department of Defense told employees not to respond. The Doge guidance was subsequently loosened, deferring to cabinet heads on how to best handle each department. Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt with a further clarification yesterday afternoon.
Those responses should be directed to agency leadership, and the president defers to his cabinet secretaries, who he's obviously entrusted, to pursue the guidance relative to their specific workforce. And for some of the agencies that you've seen who have said, please don't send these emails, it's in their best interest for that specific agency, and the president supports that. And let me be very clear, the president and Elon and his entire cabinet are working as one unified team, and they are implementing these very common sense solutions.
President Trump expressing support for the email, commenting on it from the Oval Office on Monday.
We have people that don't show up to work and nobody even knows if they work for the government. So by asking the question, tell us what you did this week, what he's doing is saying, are you actually working? And then if you don't answer, like you're sort of semi-fired or you're fired, because a lot of people are not answering because they don't even exist anymore. They're trying to, that's how badly various parts of our government were run by, and especially by this last group. So what they're doing is they're trying to find out who's working for the government.
In her briefing, Ms. Levitt saying many workers have complied with the request so far.
I can announce that we've had more than 1 million workers who have chosen to participate in this very simple task of, again, sending five bullet points to your direct supervisor or manager, CCing OPM. I actually participated in it myself. It took me about a minute and a half to think of five things I did last week. I do five things in about 10 minutes, and all federal workers
