Summary

A federal judge blocked Trump from shutting down the U.S. Africa Development Foundation (USADF) after DOGE staffers and U.S. marshals attempted to take over their offices in a confrontation described as “traumatizing.”

USADF President Ward Brehm filed a lawsuit arguing that DOGE’s actions violate federal law, as the agency can only be dissolved by Congress.

The attempted shutdown follows a February executive order targeting several foreign assistance agencies.

The White House called Brehm as a “rogue bureaucrat.” A permanent injunction is being sought.

      Why did they fire all the Inspector Generals and didn’t hire a single forensic accountant if their team then?
