The Constitutional Truth At The Heart Of The DOGE Cases

The Constitutional Truth At The Heart Of The DOGE Cases

Elon Musk’s moves at DOGE have been legally dubious from the start.

That’s why we wanted to talk with Kate Shaw, University of Pennsylvania law professor and co-host of the Strict Scrutiny podcast, about the very real constitutional issues raised by DOGE and Musk and his minions. Shaw spoke with Dahlia Lithwick about what is and isn’t legal about DOGE, and the impossible bind that creates for government lawyers tasked with defending his devastation of the government.
