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.
He always gloats. He loves to put out the message that he can do anything with impunity.
And that will be true until he is stopped.
