Vargas relaxed her earlier order, finding the Trump administration had shown it set up a process to appropriately vet and train the employees.<\/p>\n<p>The ruling marks a win for the Trump administration, which set off a political and legal firestorm earlier this year for granting access to the payment systems to Elon Musk\u2019s DOGE operation.
