Abstract generation in progress

On November 25, news came that the Trump administration is making every effort to resist government employees and contractors' attempts to require Elon Musk to testify. The lawsuit alleges that Musk illegally led the dissolution of the U.S. Agency for International Development while serving as a senior advisor to the president and leading the Department of Efficiency (DOGE). According to the latest court documents, the Justice Department has requested a Maryland federal judge to block the deposition proceedings against Musk and two former senior officials of the U.S. Agency for International Development. As part of Trump's plan to downsize the government through mass layoffs, funding cuts, and agency closures, the agency was dismantled earlier this year. Employees of the U.S. Agency for International Development allege that Musk unconstitutionally exercised senior government powers that should belong to Senate-confirmed officials and claim that Musk and other executive branch officials' actions to shut down this congressionally established foreign aid agency violated the constitutional principle of separation of powers.
