Chuck Darwin<p>US watchdog to investigate Musk ‘Doge’ team’s access to payment systems</p><p>Treasury inspector general to launch audit as judge mulls whether access to sensitive data was unconstitutional</p><p>Loren Sciurba, <br>the treasury’s deputy inspector general, <br>said the audit would review the past two years of the system’s transactions <br>to examine Musk’s claim that his team has uncovered evidence of billions of dollars of fraudulent payments.</p><p>She said the audit <br>– launched in response to demands from the Democratic senators Elizabeth Warren and Ron Wyden <br>– would begin immediately and <br>👉take until August to complete.</p><p>Its launch coincided with a judge in Washington considering a legal suit <br>lodged by Democratic attorneys general from 14 states, <br>arguing that Doge’s work was illegal on the alleged grounds that Trump violated the US constitution <br>💥by creating a federal government department without congressional approval.</p><p>The attorneys general argue that Musk has exercised “virtually unchecked power” <br>by entering government agencies and ordering sweeping cuts without oversight or authorization from Congress.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/USAid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USAid</span></a>, the government foreign assistance agency, has been shuttered on his authority <br>and its workforce put on leave, <br>although a judge on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to temporarily lift the funding freeze it has imposed on the agency’s humanitarian work.</p><p>The suit, led by <br>New Mexico’s justice department, <br>alleges that Doge has “unraveled federal agencies, accessed sensitive data, and caused widespread disruption for state and local governments, federal employees, and the American people”.</p><p>A separate hearing in a court in New York was due <br>over whether to extend a temporary block on the Doge team entering the <a href="https://c.im/tags/payments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>payments</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/system" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>system</span></a> <br>that was imposed in an interim ruling last Saturday by Judge <a href="https://c.im/tags/Paul" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Paul</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Englemayer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Englemayer</span></a>. </p><p>Musk called for Englemayer’s impeachment after that ruling, <br>while JD Vance, the vice-president, wrote in a social media most that judges were not allowed to interfere with a president’s “legitimate power” <br>– a view contested by most constitutional law experts.</p><p>On Friday, Judge <a href="https://c.im/tags/Jeannette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Jeannette</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Vargas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Vargas</span></a> extended the temporary block, though she said she would not yet rule on whether there should be a longer lasting preliminary injunction prohibiting Doge’s access to the treasury payment system.</p><p>Swingeing cuts continued apace despite the plethora of legal challenges. </p><p>Federal agency heads were ordered to fire most recent hires who have not completed their probation period – a move likely to affect about 200,000 workers, the Washington Post reported.</p><p>The treasury department audit coincided with a call from <a href="https://c.im/tags/Chris" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Chris</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Murphy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Murphy</span></a>, Democratic senator for Connecticut, <br>for an official investigation into the “legality and scope” of Musk’s penetration of the federal bureaucracy.</p><p>“Musk and his aides are subject to various conflict of interest statutes which prohibit federal employees from participating in matters that impact their own financial interests,” <br>Murphy wrote to the US government comptroller general, <a href="https://c.im/tags/Eugene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Eugene</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Dodaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dodaro</span></a>.</p><p>He added: “It is imperative the public understands whether Musk and his aides have complied with the law <br>and whether highly sensitive data could be at risk if accessed by private actors who seek to benefit from the information illegally, <br>or worse, by foreign adversaries who wish to attack this country.”</p><p>Murphy’s letter to Dodaro came as HuffPost reported that Doge had publicly <a href="https://c.im/tags/posted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>posted</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/classified" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>classified</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/information" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>information</span></a> about the size and staff of a US intelligence agency – the National Reconnaissance Office – on its new website.</p><p>The exposure reportedly left some “scrambling to check if their info has been accessed”, <br>according to one Defense Intelligence Agency employee who spoke with HuffPost.</p><p>Despite the rising resistance to its activities, <br>the US <a href="https://c.im/tags/armed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>armed</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/services" class="mention

expected to visit the Pentagon on Friday. </p><p>💥“People are offering up things sacrificially, hoping that will prevent more cuts,” a defence official told the Journal.</p><p>The army was said to be volunteering cutting outdated drones and vehicles, <br>while the navy is proposing cuts to frigates and littoral combat ships.<br><a
