Elon Musk Can Be Questioned Under Oath in DOGE Case, Judge Rules

Elon Musk can be forced to testify in a lawsuit brought by government workers and contractors who accused him of unlawfully directing the dissolution of the US Agency for International Development while he was a senior White House adviser, a judge ruled.

“Extraordinary circumstances justify” making Musk and two former USAID officials available for depositions despite the objections of the Trump administration, US District Judge Theodore Chuang wrote in a Wednesday order.
