California joined more than 12 other states on Thursday Slams Trump administration over Elon Musk’s unofficial role As a personal budget adviser to the president, he accused him of unconstitutionality, and envisions the power of high-tech billionaires to cut through federal budgets and zero federal agencies.
“There is no greater threat to democracy than the accumulation of state power in a single, unelected individual,” the state lawsuit begins. “Our constitutional system was designed to prevent abuse of monarchs in the 18th century, but unchecked tools of electricity are not so dangerous in the hands of 21st century technical barons.”
President Trump has repeatedly defended mask work in recent weeks, saying he has been doing “amazing work” by identifying the supposed fraud and waste on Thursday. Musk suggests that his power is legal as Trump was partially elected to leave Mask to him by eliminating waste.
Polls show that many Americans believe that there is a significant amount of waste in the federal government and that there is too much bureaucracy. It also shows that many Americans are skeptical of Musk and his role in government.
A state lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., alleges that Musk is under the flag. Government Efficiency Bureauunilaterally created by President Trump – “through the federal government, it unleashed agencies, accessed sensitive data, causing massive confusion and confusion among state and local governments, federal employees and Americans.”
The complaint is Schedule clause The constitution, designed to prevent king’s kurnism in the new federal government, requires Congress to create a new position in the government and the Senate to confirm the president’s appointees with prominent posts.
For weeks, Democrats have been opposed to masks’ actions in order to eliminate federal funds approved by Congress, which, along with his Doge, ruled the strings of the federal wallet. The state lawsuit says Musk’s actions are surprising and unconstitutional.
“Mr. The seemingly endless and unidentified power of masks to strip Musk’s government from the labor force and eliminate the entire division with pen strokes or mouse clicks is shocking to those who have won the country’s independence. It would have been,” the lawsuit states. “There is no US office other than the president that has the full power of administrative agencies. The cleaning agencies currently granted to one unelected unidentified individual are opposed to the entire constitutional structure of the country.”
In his own statement, California Atty. General Rob Bonta called the mask “a Chinese store bull” and Trump appointed him to “create”, but the extremely powerful post “bypasses the nomination and confirmation process required under the constitution He said it was a clear and dangerous effort to do so.
“The looting of Doge’s federal agencies has been incredibly chaos, mistrust among the American people, and caused deep harm to our country,” Bonta said.
The lawsuit adds to a mountain of lawsuits that challenge Musk and Kudji’s actions, including access to sensitive Treasury databases and closing the US International Development Agency.
California has joined Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Vermont and Washington. He holds legitimate authority and as if to declare his orders illegal.
At the White House on Thursday, Trump was asked about Doge officials who clearly appeared at the Internal Revenue Service. He said The IRS certainly “see” By the mask team.
“They do their job. It’s a great job they do. And you know the power – I call it the power of super genius – but it’s a building.” Trump said. “They are very clever people.”
Musk reposted Doji’s praises on his social media platform X for part of the day. In a post about Doge officials who enter the IRS, Musk posted two Firegis.
Democrats have denounced Musk’s work in recent weeks, accusing him of intentionally spreading false information about what federal funds are being spent on. And Musk admitted this week that he will make some false statements as he is digging into search of waste and fraud.
But he also suggests that Democrats who are critical of his work are simply corrupt. On Thursday, Musk claimed X that “major Democrats” were critical of his work and that there was no fraud “because they’re cut,” and that they didn’t want to discover it. Posted on X.
