Can a federal judge or any other legal entity stop DOGE?


I posted this in another thread. It seems likely that Musk is acting illegally to seize classified data from federal agencies, including people's tax data and to shutter federal agencies that were created by Congress.

Musk and the people handling/storing the information have had no background checks and signed no confidentiality agreements on how they will handle the information they are seizing.

Most of this seems that it should be illegal on a variety of levels. My question is, since the Democrats don't have the votes in the House or the Senate to pass measures to stop this, what other legal avenues are there? Does anyone know?

Could a federal judge issue a cease and desist order? Could state attorney generals take emergency action on behalf of their constituents whose privacy has been compromised? Could the DC police arrest anyone? I know that the last one is unlikely, but what legal right does Musk et al. have to seize material that they have not been cleared to handle?

In short, does anyone know if there are there any systemic means to halt what is happening? Congress has the power to illegalize it, but the votes aren't there.

DUmmies are scared on what Musk will find.

Let's see, the DOGE people are operating in and bringing accountability to executive department agencies, and Trump is THE Executive. Unless Trump and DOGE are violating Federal law or the USC, Federal courts lack the authority to interfere.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

No more so than the Dim'Rats in Congress and the Deep Staters who've been milking the USAID slush fund for decades. I sense a lot of 'frog marching' and jump suits in the proximate future of these clowns.

We should be so lucky. That’s the whole problem with the government. There’s no accountability whether you fail your job and get promoted or are a crook and get away with it. at some point people need to be prosecuted and sent to jail and stripped of their illegal gains.

Whoever said that must be choking down stupid pills by the gross.

The whole point of DOGE is that all the horseshit they're uncovering isn't going to be clouded in confidentiality any longer. It's going to be exposed in the public for the taxpaying citizens to decide if it's an efficient use of taxpayer money or not.

The whole point is to bring as much of the stupid, corrupt house of cards into the sunlight as possible.

Found this montage via Jesse Watters from last night and listened to the whole thing. It is Trump/Musk Derangement Syndrome times 1 brazillion!

Contained in the link is the video, which comes highly recommended.

Down here in the south you'll occasionally hear the phrase: a bit dog hollers. I've never seen a group so pissed off about finding government excess.

Since it is all being done legally, nope. Theres nothing a fed judge should be able to do.


We suffered 4 years of sniffs and cackle-uh, and all the bad consequences of the decisions made during their misadministration, so...


You DUmmies can suck it. Its OUR turn now, and i hope it drives you literally insane.

Just a bunch of screeching women that don’t have a clue and upset because the gravy train is comfortable a halt and they got pushed off

Maxine Waters should grow a beard. She is butt ugly.
