A federal judge on Wednesday denied an emergency request by the U.S. Institute of Peace to temporarily stop Elon MuskÂ’s U.S. DOGE Service from dismantling the independent organization after DOGE staffers raided its headquarters with help from federal and local law enforcement officers
this week.
U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell said during a court hearing that the plaintiffs — several ousted USIP board members who sued in their official capacities — did not show they would be irreparably harmed if they were
not reinstated and DOGE staffers were allowed to remain in the instituteÂ’s offices.
The judge sharply criticized the Trump administration for enlisting the Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, the FBI and D.C. police to assist in the takeover of the institute. She said she was
denying the plaintiffs’ request for a temporary restraining order because there was “confusion in the complaint on a number of levels.”

Well whatever it's supposed to be doing it's obviously not working.

This sounds like a left wing slush fund.
