A federal judge on Friday declined to block Elon Musk's government cost-cutting department from accessing the U.S. Department of Labor's systems, an initial setback for the government employee unions resisting his efforts to shrink the federal bureaucracy.

The billionaire and his cronies continue to move fast and break things. Here are their boldest attacks thus far.

Angry and confused constituents have flooded the phone lines at the US Capitol this week, many of them asking questions about billionaire Elon Musk’s plans.

DOGE’s earlier actions at the Treasury have become a focus of congressional scrutiny and a federal court battle in recent days. Musk’s team initially tried to halt money going to the U.S. Agency for International Development from the Treasury’s payment system.
