Summary
Judge Tanya Chutkan, who presided over Donald Trump’s election interference case, has been assigned a major lawsuit challenging Elon Musk’s authority in the federal government.
The suit, filed by 14 states, claims Musk wields unprecedented executive power, including control over federal funds and agencies.
Chutkan, a frequent Trump critic, previously imposed a gag order on him.
While Trump and Musk have yet to comment, right-wing figures are already attacking Chutkan, signaling an upcoming political and legal battle over executive power.
After an onslaught of bad news it’s novel to see something positive happening.
Nothing positive is happening until it happens, we have yet to see Trump comply with a judicial ruling (let alone an emergency injunction). And it’ll get argued up to the SCOTUS before he’d even theoretically stop.
Don’t fall for Lucy pulling the football for the 9th year in a row. Plan and act as if he’s not facing any consequences within the limits of our government, because his record shows he won’t.
