Summary
Elon Musk’s DOGE used U.S. Marshals to take control of the U.S. African Development Foundation (USADF) after being denied entry the previous day.
USADF’s chair, Ward Brehm, instructed staff to block DOGE and Peter Marocco, a Trump ally, citing legal requirements.
Trump’s executive order seeks to dismantle USADF, but Brehm sued DOGE and Marocco, arguing the move is illegal.
The agency, which funds African grassroots initiatives, is fighting the takeover as Congress questions the administration’s authority to unilaterally dissolve it.
Add the US Marshals to the ever growing list of traitors.
Yeah… I think some Marshalls are probably going to get fired by some angry judges. The Marshalls are the enforcement arm of the federal courts, they really do not have the jurisdiction to do much without court orders.
Wouldn’t be surprised if these weren’t actual Marshalls, but are part of the private security team that musk had deputized.
How is this even possible? Does Musk just gets to do whatever he want without any questions? Why don’t the us. Marshals just deny such insane requests?
The Nazis didn’t grab power by force, it was lawfully given to them. That’s pretty much the same thing happening here. He’s asking nicely and they’re saying yes.
Yeah, that’s not what “lawful” means though… This is definitely all being illegally given to him.
Well here it sort of does. “Without consequences” might be more accurate but what Elon does and says is de facto policy at this point
But that’s not lawfully and the original comment doesn’t make sense otherwise.
Oh please, don’t start this Nazi narrative. I’m far from a supporter of this government but it being a Nazi government is a bit too far from reality.
I guess having three people from that same government making Nazi salutes live on TV or a president calling Nazis “very fine people”, does not make them a government of Nazis.
Is it? Is it really? Please, elaborate on how that is the case. We’re listening.
I’m betting someone, somewhere in the US marshals was champing at the bit. And they’ll probably get a promotion out of it, if I’m honest.
He knows what’s coming for him…

This should have been happening at every office they went to
