A federal judge denied an urgent request to temporarily block Elon Musk and DOGE from firing employees or accessing records from a half a dozen government agencies.
A federal judge in Texas has denied a request by the Department of Justice (DOJ) to temporarily block the mass layoffs and restrict access to facilities at Doge, a company embroiled in controversy over its business practices.

The judge's decision allows Doge to proceed with its planned layoffs, arguing that the DOJ did not provide sufficient evidence that immediate action was necessary to prevent irreparable harm. This ruling has raised concerns among labor rights groups and former employees about the potential loss of jobs and the integrity of the investigation into Doge's operations.
