Summary
Elon Musk’s DOGE used U.S. Marshals to take control of the U.S. African Development Foundation (USADF) after being denied entry the previous day.
USADF’s chair, Ward Brehm, instructed staff to block DOGE and Peter Marocco, a Trump ally, citing legal requirements.
Trump’s executive order seeks to dismantle USADF, but Brehm sued DOGE and Marocco, arguing the move is illegal.
The agency, which funds African grassroots initiatives, is fighting the takeover as Congress questions the administration’s authority to unilaterally dissolve it.
Well here it sort of does. “Without consequences” might be more accurate but what Elon does and says is de facto policy at this point
But that’s not lawfully and the original comment doesn’t make sense otherwise.
