The Trump administration came to the Supreme Court on Wednesday morning and asked the judges again to take measures against their emergency docking. The US general Prosecutor D. John Sauer asked the court to temporarily take a federal judge in Washington, DC, in order to provide the Efficiency of the Ministry for the government of government in order to provide information in a lawsuit that was submitted according to the law on freedom of information. Sauer informed the judges that mastiff as the “advisory committee of the president” reacts to the plaintiff's inquiries, a process that is known as a discovery “clearly violates the separation of powers” and “will be significantly distracted” by DOGE's “Mission, Fraud, waste and abuse in the federal government”.

The chief judge John Roberts instructed the crew to submit an answer on Friday, May 23, until noon at noon at the government's request.

President Donald Trump created Doge on January 20 to “promote the president's agenda by modernizing the technological and software software of the President to maximize state efficiency and productivity”. Doge has not been a department at the cabinet level, but has been complied with since his assumption to the President's efforts to reduce the Federal Government via agencies in the agencies.

The Trump government's application on Wednesday results from an application on January 24th by Foias of citizens for responsibility and ethics in Washington, a state watchdog group. Among other things, the crew applied for communication between the Doge administrator Amy Gleason and the Doge staff as well as financial disclosures submitted by the staff of Doge.

On February 20, the crew submitted a lawsuit under Foia before the Federal Supreme Court in Washington, DC It was submitted to documents according to which the crew, according to the congress, passed a legislative proposal to finance the Federal Government.

Since the case is in court on Wednesday, the request from the crew after an accelerated discovery concentrates to determine whether Doge is an “agency” that Foia has to correspond. The crew asked to end Gleason and a list of government contracts and grants recommended by Doge, a list of employees and positions recommended, and a list of the current and former employees of the Doge employee.

The US district judge Christopher R. Cooper largely granted the crew's request, including the request to dismiss Gleason, and indicated Doge to answer quickly.

In an arrangement on May 14, the US Court of Appeal rejected Cooper's arrangement for the District of Columbia Circuit and described the discovery decision as “narrow” and “modest”.

Sauer came to the Supreme Court a week later and asked the judges to intervene. He told them that Cooper had “granted an accelerated, intrusive discovery in a advisory committee of the President to deal with whether these advisory committee is freed from Foia”. Such a command, as he emphasized, gives the occupation “a significant part of the information that she would receive if it would exercise the merits of her foia arguments” and “insult the separation of powers by affecting the” necessity “for the confidentiality that enables presidential advisors to issue” candid, objective “advice and communication.

The judges are already considering another emergency complaint with Doge: On May 2, the Trump government asked the judges to pause an order of a federal judge in Baltimore who temporarily prevents the members of the Doge team from accessing the records of the social security administration, and access to the access that challengers could claim, the personal data of millions of Americans could uncover. The Court has not yet acted in this appointment.
