if Musk wants to impeach judges on the basis of their having a) ruled against Trump and b) been confirmed on a razor-thin party-line vote after an election in which the nominating president's party lost—then boy do I have bad news about Amy Coney Barrett - ThreadSky

Meanwhile on the other place Musk is endorsing Rep. Andy (I”Ogles call for investigation & impeachment of Judge Ali who issued the order tonight in the USAID foreign aid case. The justification? Ali was born in Canada and he ruled against Trump.

Elon’s endorsement was viewed 12 million times.

Impeachments of Trump’s perceived enemies are probably the only bills guaranteed to pass the House these days.

Let alone the whole being born in another country and being a dual citizen thing which seems pretty on the nose for Elon

If this country can't fully impeach and convict a president who is so extremely polarizing, there's no way we're going to impeach any federal judge that most of the country has never heard of.

Frankly, I think the "nobody's ever heard of" part makes it slightly more likely.

Going after someone with no name recognition for the public at large makes it easier to just make shit up whenever they have to defend it in the media.

And these people don't want a hard fight, they're cowards.

(succeeding in removal in the Senate is still gonna be a problem for them though, unless the Democrats cave for some reason)

What do we do about unelected and unconfirmed "leaders" from South Africa?

And Aileen Cannon.

She'd never rule against Trump unless ordered to by the appeals court.

If they don't do it peacefully they will incite their radicals to do it non peacefully - that is the hope from Musk

so we're not going to talk about the supreme court justice seated two weeks before Trump lost the election?

all they do is double standards, I wish everyone in the media wasn't born yesterday so they'd rebutt the obvious bullshit

For some reason I have a feeling this rule would only apply to judges appointed by the Democratic presidents, or who rule in a way Dear Leader dislikes 🤔
