Elon Musk's attempt to unilaterally dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development likely violated the United States Constitution, a federal judge ruled on Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang ordered Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency to immediately give USAID employees access to their "email, payment, security notification, and all other electronic systems," and ordered a pause on any efforts to shut down USAID

The headline and this Obama's judge's ruling is veggie raw meat to the left and media attack dogs.
Funny that the GOP used to be called “reactionary” but now the Dems are obsessed with bringing everything back to the way they used to be.
Then he can pay them out of his pocket.
Congress can stop all of this. Repeal the alphabet agencies. Limit the number of employees. Congress has the power. Same with deportations. Just do it.
With mountains of proof that USAID blew billions in tax payer money and still these boneheaded TDS judges try to reverse what would save billions. Just to spite Trump. Truly liberalism is a mental disorder.
Sooner or later these b@stard “judges” simply must be reigned in, lest our three branches of the federal government become the Legislative Branch, the Bureaucratic Branch and the Judicial Executive Branch (i.e., the politburo dream of the Democrat/Communist Party/Cult.
So this Federal judge is not in the District of Columbia. He’s in the Maryland District. This Judge Chuang is one of 10 judges on the Court
I wonder how/why he believes that they even have any geographical jurisdiction over USAID, not even considering the Constitutional issues of executive power.
Just how does the judge explain dismantling USAID as being unconstitutional, USAID itself being unconstitutional?
These Leftist judges call it unconstitutional to abolish unconstitutional federal agencies and acts.
This judge’s decisions should be nullified and the judge possibly impeached.
I expect these judges and their families got a lot of money from this scam.
Whoa! You smell that? Smells like...fear.
BS. The opening bannen on any USG Electronic device states yoy have no right t o anything, and personsl use is not your rifht. If they need it for personal use, then prosecute them.
They want to disrupt current operations by flooding remaining employees and managers with RESUSTANCE.
Obviously.
While Congress has the authority to do something, it is filled with people who are afraid to do anything besides make speeches. They accomplish next to nothing.
judge is a moron: musk isn’t in charge of DOGE: he’s just a consultant ...
These judges are trying to see how far they can go with these rulings thanks to justice John Roberts. Something has to give.
kinda like people on free republic...
Judge Roberts could overturn the lower court’s ruling today. He won’t.
They have to do everything via reconciliation. This is a budget item.
Another judge working for Obama/Soros, AND NOT FOR AMREICA????
USAID was created by EO and thus can be dissovlved by EO.
