A federal judge found that efforts by Musk & his team to permanently shutter the US Agency for International Development likely violated the Constitution “in multiple ways” and robbed Congress of its authority to oversee the dissolution of an agency it created. The ruling - first time a judge has moved to rein in Mr. Musk and his DoGE directly - was based on the finding that Musk has acted as an officer of the US without being properly appointed to that role by Trump. A group of unnamed aid workers who have sued to stop the demolition of USAID are likely to succeed.
