Summary
Elon Musk called for the impeachment of federal judges after courts blocked his DOGE from laying off probationary (new) federal workers.
Judges ordered agencies to reinstate tens of thousands of employees, ruling the firings unlawful. Musk claimed judicial resistance undermines democracy.
Musk has attacked judges on social media, calling them “corrupt” and “evil,” raising concerns among federal judges about their safety.
This would be a lot easier to do if Democrats hadn’t spent the past 2 months crumbling like a house of cards at every opportunity the minute they feel even a hint of pressure. We’ve collectively said numerous times that “THIS” is going to be where Democrats hold the line and take a stand, only to watch them step aside and not even attempt to resist every single time.
It’s like watching re-runs. You already know what the outcome is going to be, and if you see it enough times you can start reciting the script yourself.
The democratic party has gone the way of many hit TV shows. They’re kept alive way past the point where they should have been taken out to pasture, but they just keep pumping out the same formulaic bullshit.
“Jumping the shark” is the term for this. I remember watching Happy Days when the Fonz did just that.
