Musk Calls for Judge’s Impeachment Over DOGE Data Block

Following setbacks for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Elon Musk launched a social media attack against Judge Paul Engelmayer, calling for his impeachment after a restraining order limiting DOGE’s access to Treasury Department files. Musk’s criticisms stemmed from a misunderstanding of the order’s scope and included proposals for annual judicial culling. These actions follow internal turmoil at DOGE, including concerns from the Treasury Department about insider threats and the dismissal of a staffer with controversial social media activity. The situation highlights the tumultuous tenure of DOGE under Musk’s leadership.

Musk Calls for Judge Impeachment Over DOGE Ruling

Elon Musk vehemently criticized a judge’s order temporarily blocking his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing Treasury Department data, calling for the judge’s impeachment. This action followed a lawsuit filed by state attorneys general alleging DOGE’s access exceeded statutory authority. Musk contends this data is crucial for his government efficiency initiatives, while critics raise concerns about DOGE’s vetting processes and potential data breaches. Recent legal setbacks, including halted plans for employee administrative leave and a buyout offer, further impede DOGE’s efforts to restructure the federal government. The legality of DOGE’s actions and its future are likely to face continued legal challenges.
