Federal Judge Rules Elon Musk Holds Permanent Role in US Government

A federal judge has ruled that Elon Musk holds a permanent and impactful role within the U.S. government, rejecting the White House’s assertion that his position is merely advisory. This decision comes after a lawsuit filed by 14 state attorneys general in February, spearheaded by New Mexico, directly named Musk, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and former President Donald Trump.
