Federal judge orders Elon Musk, DOGE to reveal plans to downsize government, identify all employees

[Truth Detector]

Who put this empty-headed partisan hack jurist in charge of the Executive? Answer: NO ONE.

Another Obama-appointed federal judge who thinks she can rule over the executive branch in a clear violation of the separation of Powers.

This is why you don’t elect brainless incompetent Democrats who will only make a mockery of our institutions.

Federal judge orders Elon Musk, DOGE to reveal plans to downsize government, identify all employees​

An Obama-appointed federal judge ordered Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to reveal its plans to downsize the government and to identify all its employees, among other actions.

The directives from U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan come as 14 Democratic state attorneys general are suing President Donald Trump, Musk and DOGE, arguing that Musk is unconstitutionally wielding power, according to Politico. Chutkan gave Musk and DOGE three weeks to produce the information, which ultimately will help her decide whether to block DOGE’s operations altogether, it added.

The ruling issued Wednesday requires Musk and DOGE to, among other directives:

• Produce all DOGE and DOGE Temporary Organization planning, implementation, and operational documents concerning: (1) eliminating or reducing the size of federal agencies; (2) terminating employment of federal employees or placing such employees on leave, or (3) cancelling, freezing, or pausing federal contracts, grants, or other federal funding.
• Produce all DOGE and DOGE Temporary Organization planning, implementation, and operational documents regarding obtaining access, using, or making changes to federal databases or data management systems.
• Identify every individual serving as DOGE personnel. For each person, identify (1) their title; (2) whether they are part of a DOGE Team at an agency, and if so, what agency; (3) all individuals to whom they directly report; and (4) who hired them.
• Produce all documents containing lists, charts, or summaries that DOGE personnel or Musk have created, compiled, or edited reflecting the planned or completed cancellation of federal contracts, grants, or other legal agreements.

The directives also call for admissions that "Elon Musk has directed actions of DOGE personnel" and that "Elon Musk is not supervised by any Officer of the United States other than the President of the United States."

The correct response from the White House: POUND SAND!!!

 

[FastLane]

Indeed it is the President's job to manage the Executive branch. Trump has delegated his authority to Musk and DOGE not to some federal judge. The judge has no jurisdiction on this matter.

The case was bought by fourteen States, so the Federal Judge has the authority, and she is not questioning Musk’s power nor actions of the Executive branch, but is seeking information relevant to the case necessary to determine a ruling on the States’s complaint

Musk isn’t the Executive Branch, he is an advisor, advisors don’t make policy, nor carry they out. And if Mjsk is as transparent as he and Trump claim, what’s the problem?

And you can thank Mitch for the over employed Judiciary, he is the one who created the habit of shopping for Judges and stacking Courts with partisan jurists

It doesn't matter if it was brought by 50 states. Jurists cannot dictate how the executive is to carry out its primary responsibilities.

What laws are being broken? Anyone?

and she is not questioning Musk’s power nor actions of the Executive branch, but is seeking information relevant to the case necessary to determine a ruling on the States’s complaint

The judicial branch cannot demand anything from the Executive branch that isn't a constitutional question. NADA. Only these radical activist jurist think they can tell the executive what to do. The Constitution says otherwise.

Everything anyone needs to see is readily available on the DOGE web sites. Musk is an advisor. Trump is the "decider." This activist jurists cannot demand the President explain to her what he is doing. It's not her job.

Link to this stupid bullshit. I am amused that brainless hacks on the left think they can just say stupid shit and that makes it so.

So Fox lies to its viewers yet again.
And TD proves yet again he has no brains and is easily led around by the nose.

The ruling by Chutkan allows the plaintiffs to begin discovery to show what harm DOGE actions would cause. Fox simply claims the request of the plaintiffs was granted in full since they only cited the plaintiffs discovery aims.

IV. CONCLUSION
Plaintiffs’ discovery requests, as amended by the court, are narrowly tailored to support
their forthcoming motion for a preliminary injunction. The burden to Defendants is minimized by
the narrow time period for responsive materials, the exclusion of electronic communications,
explicitly exempting President Trump from the requests, extending Defendants’ time to respond,
and denying Plaintiffs’ request to notice depositions. Therefore, considering all the surrounding
circumstances and the expedited nature of these proceedings, the court finds Plaintiffs’ discovery
requests reasonable and will GRANT in part and DENY in part Plaintiffs’ Motion. Because the
court extends Defendants’ time to respond, it denies the request for a stay.

Poopiehead shows us he doesn't' know the difference between a civil suit and criminal indictment. Civil suits don't require that any laws but only require a showing of harm.

The judicial branch cannot demand anything from the Executive branch that isn't a constitutional question. NADA. Only these radical activist jurist think they can tell the executive what to do. The Constitution says otherwise.

I guess you didn't bother to actually read the Constitution, did you, Poopiehead? The United States is a party in this lawsuit so the judicial branch has the power to rule on the case and grant both parties the right to discovery.

The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;--to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls;--to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;--to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;--to Controversies between two or more States;--between a State and Citizens of another State;--between Citizens of different States;--between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.

Everything anyone needs to see is readily available on the DOGE web sites. Musk is an advisor. Trump is the "decider." This activist jurists cannot demand the President explain to her what he is doing. It's not her job.

There is no demand made of the President. The demand is made of federal employees to answer questions in discovery. Failure to abide by discovery rules means you lose the case by default.

Yo, brainless dumbass, it's not Chutkans job to question what DOGE is doing. Of course, being a brainless dumbass, you think jurists should manage the Executive from their benches.

These plaintiffs have no standing.

Discovery for what brainless mental case? What is the discovery? What is the law in question and what is the case? Who are the plaintiffs and how have they been injured?

It's Chutkan's job to rule on the law based on the facts presented in court.

Standing exists if harm or possible harm exists. The plaintiffs have standing.

Discovery that you have no brain seems to where we are in the discovery process. I see you ignored the fact that your link was not to a government website.

What law is Chutkan ruling on? Maybe if I ask another dozen times it will sink into that brainless head of yours.

More baseless word salad. No one is being harmed by the Government laying people off to reduce costs and corruption. If that were true, corporations would be forced to never fire or lay off anyone.

Discovery for what?

What law is Chutkan looking at that prevents the Executive from carrying out its constitutional authority give the separation of powers?

Do you actually believe that elections should be made meaningless by jurists inventing laws from the bench? Dumber than dumb.
