Elon Musk criticized the earlier on Saturday ruling that barred his Department of Government Performance from the Treasury Department’s transaction system, calling it “absolutely stupid.”
Musk questioned how DOGE may accomplish its goal of reducing waste in the federal government in an X publish without having access to Treasury information and data.
” This decision is absolutely crazy! How on earth can we prevent tax evasion and forgery without considering how it is spent? That’s absolutely impossible! Something very dark is going to defend scammers”, he said.
Musk even went after Paul A. Engelmayer, the U. S. district judge who handed down the ruling, in a separate article, calling him an “activist posing as a determine”.
Engelmayer issued an evacuation order directing Expand workers to “destroy any and all files of materials downloaded from the Treasury Department’s data and systems” and forbid Expand personnel from examining the Treasury Department’s records.
He added that DOGE’s ability to access “irreparable injury” may result from DOGE’s access to “much-specified” sensitive data, including bank account information and Social Security numbers.

Another federal judge ruled in Engelmayer’s ruling on Thursday, saying that the two DOGE workers who had access to the payment system could keep having their restricted access to the records.
A judge reading is now set for Feb. 14.
