Summary
Top Republicans, including Speaker Mike Johnson and Rep. Jim Jordan, are backing Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s attacks on U.S. judges who blocked Trump orders and Musk-led federal agency cuts.
A judiciary subcommittee hearing explored curbing “judicial overreach,” while Musk, who donated $300M to Trump, has called for impeaching judges.
Critics warn these moves undermine judicial independence and risk violence. Judges facing threats include James Boasberg, targeted by Trump for halting deportations.
Legal experts and ex-GOP officials say the attacks serve political and fundraising goals, while endangering constitutional norms.

We don’t need MAGA to have a majority.
Thankfully the Republicans are fucking over so many people that democrats have an honest chance at getting the majority. But the odds of them ever actually doing any of the above is likely less than winning the lottery
In fairness, a massive proportion of people didn’t vote at all, so we really only need to convince them to join a movement. Fuck trump supporters, they can change their minds if they want to, but we don’t need them to if they don’t want to.
