The trial of stopping Elon Musk from Government Decagation receives a difficult judge
The Donald Trump administration was affected by a storm of court cases because of the grossly illegal actions that were taken as the president was sworn in on January 20. But a new case against Elon Musk, a billionaire who is currently trying to dismantle federal agencies under the pre -fight against “fraud” can be difficult for the wealthy chase of Trump. As the case, for the first time brought on Thursday, just landed before a judge who does not suffer from fools.
Tanya Chutkan, who was also a judge in Election A case against Trump, has just been appointed to the case known as New Mexico’s State against MuskS But do not let the name of the case mislead you. The case was brought by 14 different states, including General Brace in Arizona, Michigan, Maryland, Minnesota, California, Nevada, Vermont, Connecticut, Rod Island, Massachusetts, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii.
“In recent weeks, defendant Elon Musk, with the approval of President Donald J. Trump, touring the federal government, unraveling agencies, accessing sensitive data and causing mass chaos and confusion for state and local authorities, federal officials and the US people, “the lawsuit is indicated.
The case lists several defendants, including Trump, but strives for Musk, who runs a group called the Dodge, the Ministry of Government Efficiency, which has been transferring the federal government in recent weeks. Countries claim that the appointment of Trump’s Musk to lead to a large extent a fake agency was unconstitutional.
“There is no greater threat to democracy from the accumulation of state power in the hands of a single, unspoken individual,” the lawsuit said. “Although our constitutional system is designed to prevent the 18th -century monarch’s abuse, the instruments of unverified force are no less dangerous in the hands of a 21st century technological baron.”
The case seeks to stop Musk not to deal with state funding, to cancel various contracts and to fire everyone in the federal agencies. The problem, of course, is that he has already done all this and the Trump administration often ignores court orders.
Kyle Cheney, Reporter for PoliticoIt was the first to note on social media that the case was appointed to Chutkan. And let’s just say that Trump is not a fan of the US District Court judge would be an underestimation. President called Judge Chukan “The Greek Man” when she ordered the release of a report by special prosecutor Jack Smith.
Trump allies like the far -right fanatics Laura Lomer summarized Chutkan’s opposition on Friday, writing “Tanya Chutkan was born in Kingston, Jamaica. It is not even from the United States. ” Loomer also complained that Chutkan was too difficult for the defendants who tried to coup against the United States on January 6th and whimpered that Chutkan was observed. “Jack Smith’s fiddle hunt against President Trump. “So you can see how this type of racist garbage plays with Trump’s most ardent defenders.
The case seeks to prevent Musk from being able to issue more orders, something that looks clear must be done immediately before it causes more damage.
– Mr. Musk does not occupy the United States office and did not have his nomination for an office confirmed by the Senate, “the lawsuit said. “Therefore, his officer levels are unconstitutional. This court must restore the constitutional order and, in accordance with the appointment clause, to take advantage of the Musk from issuing orders of any person in the executive power outside Doge and otherwise be involved in the actions of an employee of the United States and to announce that his actions are his actions to date are Ultra -viruses And without legal effect. “
The lawsuit against Musk is conducted by countries governed to a large extent Democrats, but this is not a strictly guerrilla affair. Two of the 14 states have Republican governors, including Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo, who received Trump’s approval in 2022, and Vermont’s governor, who supported the impeachment and removal of Trump after the Trump supporters’ attack on the Capitan The United States on January 6, 2021.
And there are other signs that some Republicans feed on the screaming crime of Trump’s actions as they return to the presidency. The US Department of Justice saw a large number of resignations on Thursday after employees were told to refuse a case against New York Mayor Eric Adams, who was accused of corruption. Trump’s regime claimed to have participated in “What is where“According to DOJ employees, to refuse the case against Adams if he helped in the application of immigration in New York.
Daniel Sasson, an American lawyer at the South District of New York, was one of the DOJ employees who resigned and no one could accuse her of being a liberal-bought heart. Sassoon is a Republican, a member of the right -wing federalist company and a former clerk for the late Supreme Court judge Antonin Skalia.
None of this will prevent Trump and Musk from insisting that everything done to prevent their illegal actions is purely guerrilla. But don’t believe in a second.
