DOJ aware of complaints that Elon Musk’s pro-Trump PAC million-dollar lottery for registered voters is ‘clearly illegal’

A new federal lawsuit is taking aim at the legitimacy of the Elon Musk-helmed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). This time, the challenge to DOGE’s power is about core legal definitions.

The basic thrust of the lawsuit filed Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia is that “DOGE is an advisory committee” that is “separate and distinct from the United States DOGE Service.”

These distinctions, the plaintiffs say, are not picayune.

Rather, such distinctions mean DOGE is more or less operating in secret and in violation of the federal law governing advisory committees, according to the 33-page amended complaint.
