Elon Musk’s DOGE Sued After Using U.S. Marshals to Take Over Agency

The U.S. African Development Foundation is doing everything it can to stop the illegal takeover of its agency.

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.

    Oh please, don’t start this Nazi narrative. I’m far from a supporter of this government but it being a Nazi government is a bit too far from reality.

      I guess having three people from that same government making Nazi salutes live on TV or a president calling Nazis “very fine people”, does not make them a government of Nazis.
