Summary

The Intercept has uncovered Elon Musk’s government email address, erm71@who.eop.gov, and filed FOIA requests to access his correspondence as head of DOGE.

DOGE has rapidly cut federal staffing and spending but tries to claim exemption from FOIA due to its White House affiliation.

Watchdog groups argue DOGE wields agency-level power and are suing for transparency. Government responses on Musk’s role have been contradictory, fueling legal battles.

Pending lawsuits aim to classify DOGE as a FOIA-subject agency and force document disclosures.

    A bad idea, then the email will become defunct, it’s better when we know it.

      Bold of you to assume internet users have been waiting on a consensus about this before you posted this fair reasoning.

        Nobody assumed anything, the second it was released into the wild it was spammed.
