Summary

Elon Musk called for U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer’s impeachment after the judge blocked his department, DOGE, from accessing sensitive Treasury records.

DOGE has faced criticism for its broad data access. Engelmayer ruled that only specialized civil servants could access Treasury records and ordered DOGE to destroy any obtained data.

Musk and GOP figures condemned the ruling, but judicial impeachment remains rare, with only eight judges removed since 1803.

The next court hearing is set for February 14.

    Honestly if I thought we could keep him in jail, that would be my preference. I couldn’t imagine how miserable he would be… If you take Ketamine everyday do you get withdrawals if you stop?

      It does have withdrawal symptoms, and they’re not fun, but they are usually not deadly.
