[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The lawsuit is against Elon Musk and DOGE.  They do not have authority to restart the agency.  The ruling is limited to things like restoring access to e-mail, and for Elon to stop firing any more people.[/quote]

Not exactly.  DOGE/Musk were told to ensure that USAID can reoccupy its former headquarters.

Judge Chuang wrote that Musk's takeover "usurped the authority of the public's elected representatives in Congress to make decisions on whether, when, and how to eliminate a federal government agency, and of Officers of the United States duly appointed under the Constitution to exercise the authority entrusted to them."

While Judge Chuang rebuked Musk's role within the Trump administration, the exact implications of the decision on the operations of USAID are unclear.

DOGE and Musk were also ordered to submit a written agreement within two weeks that ensures USAID can reoccupy its former headquarters in the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C.
