Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency has Democrats furious and the Washington establishment a-boil — desperately trying to mire DOGE’s “break things and move fast” in lawfare and other counterpunching.
But the drive to uncover government waste and projects directly opposed by the public must not stop.
President Trump and his minion Musk need to keep the disruption growing, shining sunlight into dark fiscal corners.
Friday saw lefty “consumer advocacy” group Public Citizen team up with the University of California student government to sue to stop DOGE from getting Education Department data, citing supposed privacy concerns even though it’s working lawfully through the renamed US Digital Service.
And another lawsuit led by big-gorilla unions — including perennial progressive villain SEIU — has so far stymied DOGE access to Labor Department data.
Members of the same crew, which also includes labor giants the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees and the American Federation of Government Employees, are suing DOGE over its right to access payment and other information via the US Treasury.
