What concerns did Judge Tanya Chutkan raise about Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency in the Trump administration?
Judge Chutkan questioned the Trump administration's claims regarding Elon Musk's role in the Department of Government Efficiency. She stated the case had strong merits and addressed concerns about unchecked authority of an unelected individual in an entity not created by Congress. The judge pointedly reminded defense counsel of their duty to make truthful representations to the court, suggesting the affidavit claiming Musk has no role contradicted previous statements by Trump. While refusing to grant an immediate injunction, she left the case open for plaintiffs to provide further evidence.
