The judge said Musk appears to lack the legal authority to direct alterations to the government because he is not a Senate-confirmed official and DOGE was never authorized by Congress.
“The Constitution does not permit the Executive to commandeer the entire appointments power by unilaterally creating a federal agency pursuant to Executive Order and insulating its principal officer from the Constitution as an ‘advisor’ in name only,” Chutkan wrote.
Chutkan said plaintiffs have also sufficiently alleged that they were harmed by DOGE’s “unauthorized access” to “private and proprietary information” and other actions.

The richest man in the world being held accountable, in the US of all places?
It’s a silly idea, I like it, but it’s silly.
The Orange TurdNugget will either put a stop to this, just like he has to his own trials for his own treason from the stolen documents debacle.
Or he’ll pardon Felon Mucks if anything comes from it.
If it’s a lawsuit instead of a criminal trial, it can’t be disrupted by prosecutor corruption or pardoned away. It also can’t result in jail time though. That will only be possible once Trump’s goons are no longer running the Dept of Justice.
