(MENAFN- Live Mint) US President Donald Trump has shared a meme on his Truth Social handle to mock federal workers who raised concerns over an email from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

On Saturday, DOGE, led by Elon Musk, sent an email titled "What did you do last week?" asking federal employees to list their weekly accomplishments in five bullet points. The employees were asked to resign over non-compliance with the directive.

Following this, Donald Trump shared a meme from the popular Nickelodeon cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants on the social media platform Truth Social. In the meme, Spongebob can be seen thinking deeply with a notepad in his hand while his friend Patrick Star shows a list titled“Got Done Last Week”.
