Media are missing this if they don't include it.
Yes, Judge Chutkan just denied temporary restraining order in New Mexico v Musk.
But judge signals plaintiffs have the better argument when this reaches the merits: That Elon Musk is exercising power in violation of Appointments Clause.

Giving access to SSNs, other data on government employees to non-employees like Musk is a violation of 5 USC 552a, and carries with it a penalty of $1000 per person whose data was accessed. We are building a case. Govt employees who want to participate should contact me directly

Fun fact: Americans STRONGLY oppose politicization of the civil servants, with 90% believing "Civil servants should serve the people more than any individual president." This study* from the Partnership is excellent and expands on this point (*I started).
