Yes, there’s a hearing later this month.

As noted in another thread, it’s a sad indictment on Congress that DOGE is doing the job that Congress seems unable to do consistently well.

Leaving for work in the morning, the judge needs to be sure he has his toothbrush with him 😁

This is just the start of many orders by DC district judges to shut down DOGE and Trump. They are in a catch up mode now, but I expect most of his executive orders to be stopped by leftist judges.

Federal Judge logic: The Executive Branch of the federal government does not have the constitutional authority to audit the Executive Branch of the federal government.

IGNORE the judge. Precedent set by Democrats.

Did Biden listen to judges who said he couldn’t “forgive” college loans and transfer the payments to already overburdened taxpayers?

Reminds me of the scene in “The Untouchables” where Elliott Ness whispers in the judges ear that his name and payment amounts are in the records they had possession of.

A little “heads-up” to this maniac leftist “jurist” may very well get her to stand-down.

That is why the Trump team has been moving with extreme urgency.

By the time the leftist judges act the horses will have already left the barn.

Good luck forcing the administration to spend money when the judge orders it.

The appeals can take years while the leftist organizations collapse and die.

Where does the Judge get off tell the chief executive he can’t audit and make personnel changes to the executive branch?

The other side is still under the impression that PRESIDENT Trump is not a legitimate president and they can do whatever they want. I also bet she is getting a nice, little allowance from USAid connections.

So just to be clear—the action has already been done, by limiting this so-called payment exposure to two people, and the Administration is not under any indictment to cease and desist further at this point?

I tend to agree with you, because seeing this last night led me to believe there would be fireworks today—yet almost noon in DC and nary a word.

The democrats, meanwhile, are trying to blame Elon Musk in all of this, when in actuality, it is the American people, through their vote last November, who is to “blame” (or deserve the credit).

The federal unions are panicked———Trump is planning to run the social security numbers of federal employees against IRS data to see how many of them have used their “work at home” status over the last four years to take on a second W-2-generating job.

I'll take an opposing point of view. I think most of those employees will be too lazy to get a second job. Sure some do...

You greatly underestimate govt employees.

Laziness doesnt factor in-——these are well-paid “no-show” second jobs.

I think the records this judge ruled on, are already in the hands of DOGE.

Sure there are still some gov no show jobs, but my take is most of them have been outsourced to NGOs getting the grift..
