A federal judge in Washington on Friday handed Elon Musk's government efficiency team a win by declining a request to temporarily block it from accessing sensitive data from at least three federal agencies.

Unions and nonprofits attempted to stop Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing records at the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

U.S. District Judge John Bates wrote in an opinion that the government was likely correct in categorizing DOGE as an agency, thereby allowing it to detail its staff to other government departments.

We have no choice but to win this war. If they ever gain control again, they will go after us individually and with a vengeance, including our personal finances. Losing is not an option.

You’re right. They’re going to start raising hell when the weather warms up.

We have huge advantages and can’t squander them.

They are on defense and it looks like they will be forced to stay on the defensive. They’re getting hit fast and furiously and can’t begin to recover.

Staying on the defensive never wins wars.

And they are showing their true colors and people see them and don’t like what they see.

They’re losing support/ground.

I don't think you'll be so thrilled with Musk, "REVEREND"-mommy, when DOGE begins its investigation into where the unaccounted for billions The Big Guy sent to your favorite dictator, Zelensky, actually went.

This bears repeating, and plastering in LARGE LETTERS everywhere.

This fight being waged by Trump and DOGE against the establishment administrative state is absolutely existential to America as a free Nation.

We should regularly remind ourselves of the old maxim, that "If you make war against the King, you MUST kill him." In this case, the "King" is the Deep State.

Can this be used to reverse the other judges’ rulings, and allow the DOGE boys to go into those departments, and also allow President Trump to shut the money spigots on the waste fraud and abuse?

It will be nice to have a conservative, fiscal anyways as we see right now, non globalist socialist administration, on the offensive like this, for 4 entire years.
