The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals delivered a decisive blow to the left’s relentless lawfare on Friday.

The court granted an emergency stay, suspending a lower court’s absurd preliminary injunction that sought to hamstring Elon Musk, the United States DOGE Service, and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from carrying out their mission to streamline a bloated and inefficient government—starting with the outdated United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

The original ruling, handed down by a Maryland district court on March 18 by Judge Theodore Chuang, was a textbook case of judicial overreach, cheered on by 26 anonymous USAID bureaucrats desperate to cling to their cushy government gigs.

Judge Chuang, an appointee of Barack Obama, issued a 68-page opinion asserting that the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) initiative to dissolve USAID likely violated the Constitution.

On March 20, 2025, President Trump issued an executive order to begin dismantling the Department of Education and returning control over education to states, parents, and local communities. Contrary to what headlines and Democrat politicians are claiming, this move does not amount to defunding schools.

It’s not an attack on education — it’s an attack on a bloated, unaccountable bureaucracy that has failed its core mission.

The Department of Education was created in 1979 after heavy lobbying from the teachers’ union. Despite decades of federal oversight and massive spending, educational outcomes have only gotten worse.

During the COVID-19 pandemic alone, the federal government poured hundreds of billions into schools that were not even open. Last year, total education-related federal spending reached $268 billion. And what did taxpayers get in return? Some of the worst academic performance in modern history.

Elon Musk revealed a couple of the biggest scams uncovered by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) during an interview with Senator Ted Cruz.

Musk appeared on Ted Cruz’s podcast, “Verdict with Ted Cruz” with co-host Ben Ferguson to discuss DOGE and the first 50 days of the Trump Administration.

The episode, which was filmed at the White House, aired on Monday.

Elon Musk said DOGE has found MILLIONS of government credit cards with a $10,000 limit.

DOGE says it has saved approximately $105 billion in a “combination of asset sales, contract/lease cancellations and renegotiations, fraud and improper payment deletion, grant cancellations, interest savings,” and other workforce reductions.

The Democrats are angry that DOGE is saving American taxpayers money, so they devised a scheme to stop Elon Musk and his team.

There are currently nearly a dozen lawsuits challenging DOGE over its authority, data access, and privacy laws.

Senator Elizabeth Warren was asked what she’d like to say to Elon Musk and DOGE; her response, which is now going viral on Twitter, was, “Get the hell out of our government. Nobody elected you.”

However, this response is incredibly shortsighted and disingenuous. The overwhelming majority of government positions are not elected. In fact, only the President and Vice President are elected by the entire country. Senators and Representatives are elected by voters in their respective states and districts.

However, beyond these positions, no other officials in the federal government—including those in the IRS, DOJ, and FBI —are elected; they are appointed or hired.

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is expanding beyond the federal government.

According to Newsmax, Republican governors and lawmakers in Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, and Wisconsin are following the lead of the federal government and set up their own efficiency taskforces aimed at cutting government waste.

Among those is Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who has set up a “DOGE task force” to audit spending, reduce bureaucracy, and eliminate any remaining diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

“I am requiring state agencies to utilize AI [artificial intelligence] as a way to supplement our ongoing efforts to produce streamlined and cost-effective government,” DeSantis wrote on X earlier this week.

Elon Musk’s DOGE discovered that Joe Biden’s EPA awarded $2 billion to a firm linked to failed Democrat Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

Even worse, the firm only reported $100 in revenue in its first three months in business in 2023.

How did a brand new firm that only reported $100 in revenue get awarded $2 billion??

Earlier this month Lee Zeldin, Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), provided an update to the money wasted on Biden’s watch in response to undercover video posted by Project Veritas in December.

Musk is not dismantling democracy; he is cutting government spending and eliminating waste. He is also investigating corruption among politicians earning less than $200,000 per year yet possessing net worths in the millions. Why would anyone oppose that?

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has launched a comprehensive effort to reduce bureaucracy, eliminate wasteful spending, and modernize government operations. By streamlining processes and cutting unnecessary expenditures, DOGE aims to enhance efficiency across multiple federal agencies. One key initiative includes replacing outdated systems, such as manual sorting of retirement paperwork, with modernized solutions to improve effectiveness and reduce costs.

One of DOGE’s most significant actions targeted the Department of Education, immediately terminating over $370 million in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) grants, which funded programs such as anti-racism training for teachers and educational initiatives abroad. Additionally, DOGE implemented a $900 million budget cut to the agency responsible for tracking American students’ academic progress, significantly reducing operational expenses.

This is why it is all hands on deck to stop Elon Musk’s DOGE team.

On Monday, Elon Musk’s DOGE revealed the federal government didn’t trace $4.7 trillion in payments.

$4.7 trillion dollars in payments were left blank, making it nearly impossible to trace, DOGE said.

“The Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) is an identification code linking a Treasury payment to a budget line item (standard financial process),” DOGE explained in a post on X.

Elon Musk aide Kavin Kliger visited the DC offices of the IRS to examine its systems, according to the Wall Street Journal, which noted that Kliger has been working at the Office of Personnel Management.

Later in the day, Trump announced that DOGE would audit the nation's tax collection agency.

"The Internal Revenue Service will be looked at like everybody else," Trump told reporters during a White House press briefing.
