What happened
This is an opinion piece on congressional standing against the executive branch, not a report of a security incident. It cites the 2020 en banc DC Circuit decision that a House committee had standing to subpoena former White House Counsel Don McGahn, and notes the Supreme Court has granted certiorari on whether DOGE is subject to FOIA. The author argues Congress should have standing to vindicate investigative powers and its spending power, and no defensive action is indicated.
