Federal judge expands the order of blocking

On Friday, Federal Judge Manhattan has temporarily expanded the order blocking Elon Mask’s government staff from accessing the US Treasury Treasury information, transmitting a limited Victory for James and more than a dozen other state lawyers.

On February 7, the state law enforcement agencies filed a lawsuit that sought to block Doge, a program created by the President Donald Trump Administration to reduce federal expenditures and reduce the government to access the Bureau of Financial Services, which processes 90% of all federal payments. New -York received $ 94.3 billion in federal financing last financial year, according to the federal complaint.

Judge of the District Court Jeanette Vargas issued a temporary restrictive order the day after the claim was filed. On Friday, she decided that the order was left in place, but said that she would soon make her full decision.

James accused of a lawsuit that bank account numbers and social insurance, among other personal and confidential information, were jeopardized because Doge workers had access and sent data screenshots to other members of the newly created department.

The IRS denied that any unauthorized access was provided, although the government’s leading lawyer recognized on Friday that the full investigation had not been completed.

“These are employees of the Ministry of Finance, who access the financial department information,” said the assistant of the US prosecutor Jeffrey Oesterich.

Oesterich, briefly, called the judge’s decision to stop the dog unconstitutional.

Referring to the article in the US Constitution, which creates the powers of the President, he wrote: “No court can make a ban that directly experiencing a clear line of supervision of Article II. Since the order on the face draws an unacceptable and anti -constitutional difference, it should be broken immediately.”

On Friday, James also expressed pious concern during a press conference before the court hearing.

“No one chose Elon Mask or his servants, and no one allowed him to have access to this information,” she said. The only discretion in the presence of a wallet, not Elon Musk. “

Access to appropriate

The lawsuit instructed this musk And his young support staff was allowed unauthorized access to the most important payment system to prevent funds from entering.

“One goal is to allow the Dogh to promote the stated goal to block federal funds to achieve beneficiaries who are not consistent with the President’s political program,” the claim accuses.

According to the scope, one database employee who had access to and the ability to change, databases was 25 -year -old Mark Elez, who resigned after The Wall Street Journal reported that he made racist remarks in social networks .

The claim also states that personal data on computer systems are introduced into “open -ended artificial intelligence … A system belonging to and controlled by a private third party, without measures to ensure the confidentiality and safety of US citizens and US residents’ data. ”

The Treasury denied that Doge workers have access to anything except the source code of data sets.

General lawyers have accused that access to the dog’s access to systems violated many federal laws, including the Privacy Act; The law on the administrative procedure that regulates how the agency’s procedures change; And the Egover Law, which is working on the protection of government information on the Internet.

Another Dog employee, Thomas Krause, executive director of several software companies that are not paid in his government role, said he was hired to “reduce and eliminate improper and fraudulent payments … and increase the accuracy of financial statements.
