United States President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), led by Elon Musk, found billions of dollars in “fraud, waste and abuse”, in what he characterized as being the result of an “government administered incompetently”.
In a publication on the social network Truth Social, the president also criticized “certain highly political activists and judges” who “want to interrupt it.”
The comments were made as Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other high government officials attacked judges who blocked some of the republican’s second term orders.
So far, courts have taken steps to block Trump attempts to end birth citizenship, freeze federal aid and loans, and cut government agencies such as USAID and Final Protection Bureau (Financial Consumer Protection Agency for consumer , in free translation).
A judge also took action to prevent Doge employees from accessing the Treasury Department’s payment system.
Elon Musk criticized the magistrate, calling him “corrupt.” “He needs to suffer impeachment now!” He posted at X.
Vance also made publications over the weekend, questioning the judiciary’s authority to block Donald Trump’s orders.
“Judges are not allowed to control the executive branch,” he wrote in X.
