Trump Administration Asks Supreme Court to Halt DOGE Inquiry

The Trump administration asked the US Supreme Court to block a government watchdog group from questioning a senior official and obtaining internal records about the Department of Government Efficiency project once led by Elon Musk.

The March 18 request by the Justice Department is part of a long-running legal fight with Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which is seeking to uncover information about DOGE’s efforts last year to drastically cut federal spending and fire thousands of government workers.
