Originally published at: Elon Gives House GOP A Little Incentive For Helping The Executive Defy The Judiciary - TPM – Talking Points Memo
House Republicans can have $6,600 for supporting Elon Musk’s drive to impeach judges who place checks on President Trump’s lawless executive actions, as a treat. Musk has been championing talk of impeaching federal judges who block or place temporary holds on some of Trump’s most Constitution-smashing executive actions since Day 1. When judges first started…

The entire Judiciary seems to (finally) be realizing that they have a tiger by the tail and they need to tame it before it eats the Court.
Trump and Elmo may have pushed a bit too hard. Finesse has never been a skill either one of these fuckers has ever possessed. The next few days could be very interesting - particularly if the Enemies Act Judge throws one or more DoJ lawyers in jail for civil contempt.

The only mechanism the courts have to tame the tiger is the U.S. Marshalls. The U.S. Marshalls are under the control of Attorney General / DOJ, which tRump has gutted and stacked with his orcs. Checkmate.

Biden did not win Hageman’s district in 2020. Wyoming only has an at large seat, so the district is the entire state. Trump won Wyoming by his largest margin with almost 70% of the vote.
Also, activists would have to take a long bus trip to get to Laramie… They don’t look like activists. They look like her constituents that are upset over the impact of DOGE.

What is this deal with “impeaching” judges for not giving you the verdicts you want? Furthermore, what’s the deal with harassment, threats, outright attacks and assassination attempts?? Whatever became of just taking Judge Too-Libby on a nice trip to the Barbados, or getting him a sweet motor coach, like they used to buy (er, TIP) old Clarence?
On the bright side, this makes it A-Okay for Democrats to massively purge too-maga judges once they’ve gotten back into power. That is, once we’ve purged the Chuck Schumer Do-Nothing Give-it-all-up Democrats from the Congress.

The federal judge overseeing the Alien Enemies Act case is growing increasingly irate
He’s giving me the impression he has little to no power. Or he’s an extremely patient judge. What is it he can do?

You mean the entire Judiciary finally figured out they were supporting the Leopard Face Eating Party?
And the Judiciary was on the menu?

“Nobody in my social media groups or on my infobubble news sources thinks that the federal government does anything useful, so all these angry people must be Democrats.”
That’s the problem when you start believing your own bullshit.

“It’s so bizarre to me how obsessed you are with federal government,” says the representative to the federal government to the people she represents.
Reminds me of the time when I pulled into my local gas station, and the gas pumps didn’t work, and the bathroom was smeared with shit, and I complained to the owner and he said “It’s so bizarre how obsessed you are with this gas station.”
