US Supreme Court temporarily halts access sought by watchdog group to DOGE records

- The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday temporarily paused judicial orders requiring the Department of Government Efficiency, established by President Donald Trump and spearheaded by his billionaire adviser Elon Musk, to turn over records and answer questions in the coming days and weeks concerning its operations.

The court put on hold Washington-based U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper's orders for DOGE to respond to a government watchdog group's requests for information after finding that DOGE likely is a government agency covered by the federal Freedom of Information Act.

The Supreme Court's action, called an administrative stay, gives it additional time to consider the Justice Department's formal request to block Cooper's order while litigation proceeds in a lower court.
