Summary
A lawsuit filed within minutes of Donald Trump’s swearing-in challenges the legality of Elon Musk’s “department of government efficiency” (Doge), alleging it violates federal transparency rules.
The suit claims Doge functions as a federal advisory committee but lacks balanced representation, public meeting access, and record-keeping.
Doge, which reportedly operates from SpaceX offices and uses encrypted communication, aims to streamline government by cutting programs and jobs.
Critics argue the project is shrouded in secrecy, while supporters label it a branding exercise for Trump’s government reform efforts.
I don’t see what this actually will accomplish. Won’t this just set new, bad precedent with corrupt and crooked judges on the federal and Supreme Courts? Does this have any teeth at all, or all just cabaret?
If people chill and just let him do whatever he wants without challenging it it also sets bad precedent
I agree with that, and not saying we shouldn’t try, just looking for probability of this making a difference.
