What legal challenges is Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) facing, and what is the judge's stance on these cases?

DOGE is facing a lawsuit brought by 14 attorney generals who claim the department is imposing a lack of transparency in its operations. The legal challenge centers on concerns about DOGE's authority to implement personnel cuts within federal agencies that could potentially harm public service effectiveness. In response to these claims, Judge Chutkan has taken a cautious approach, urging the attorneys to demonstrate more than just fear. The judge specifically asked them to clearly articulate the actual harm being caused by the administration's actions through DOGE, suggesting that concrete evidence of negative impacts will be necessary for the case to proceed effectively.
