GOP Account Hit With Blunt Reminder After Shaming Dems For Celebrating Tesla's Downfall

The House Judiciary GOP X account shared a clip of Tim Walz celebrating Tesla's stock plummeting to shame Democrats for "CHEERING for American companies to fail"—and was quickly reminded of its own past tweets.

Minnesota Democratic Governor and former vice presidential candidate Tim Walz joined many Americans in a bit of schadenfreude regarding White House advisor Elon Musk’s recent reversal of fortune.

Musk, the self-described leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has seen protests against his actions on behalf of Republican President Donald Trump. Part of those protests include Tesla owners getting rid of their vehicles, buyers boycotting the brand, and stockholders dumping their shares.


Walz shared with a Wisconsin audience how seeing Musk’s stock plummet gives him a boost.

But the GOP's portion of the House Judiciary Committee—through their "House Judiciary GOP" X account—took exception to Walz's amusement.

The House Judiciary Committee is chaired by controversial Ohio Republican Representative Jim Jordan, who recently attended the NCAA Division 1 wrestling national championship with Elon Musk.

The Judiciary committee's Republican members posted:

"Democrats are CHEERING for American companies to fail."
"Disgusting behavior."

The post was almost immediately tagged with a community note stating:

"This same account has also cheered for the downfall of American companies."

The context included a link to a May 2023 post by the House Judiciary GOP account which said:

"Bud Light."
" Disney."
"Target."
"Go WOKE. Go BROKE."

Other X users also pointed out the GOP's hypocrisy.

As of this writing, the House Judiciary GOP post is still up on X—with the added community context.

Whether or not X owner Elon Musk censors that community note remains to be seen.

Viral Video Of Humanoid Robot Monk Pledging Itself To Buddhism In South Korea Has The Internet Giving Some Major Side-Eye

We currently live in a society that is growing increasingly familiar with technology, not to mention the ever-increasing fear that technology and artificial intelligence (AI) will render the human race unnecessary, particularly in the workforce.

Religious organizations were arguably one of the few places where one could safely assume no one need worry about any sort of technological invasion.

Threads User's Epic Rant Ripping MAGA Fans Who Now Claim They 'Always Had Doubts' About Trump Has The Internet Applauding

As prominent MAGA minions, like QAnon conspiracy peddler and former Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, have come out against MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, so too are some lesser known individuals.

Whether it's his Iran War, his continuing saga with the Epstein files, his utter failure to keep any of his campaign promises that they banked on helping them, or the abject incompetence of his hand-picked personnel, some members of MAGA are distancing themselves from the cult.

Trump Ripped For Somehow Making His 'Happy Mother's Day' Post All About Himself Without Any Mention Of Melania

President Donald Trump was criticized after he "honored" mothers on Mother's Day by attacking Democrats in a self-absorbed post on Truth Social, never mentioning his wife, First Lady Melania, who is the mother of his youngest son Barron.

Instead of acknowledging her and mothers around the country, Trump gloated about the economy and accused critics of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome," targeting Democrats and Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chair he's been trying to push out of his administration.

Zach Galifianakis Expertly Lays Into Comedians Who Refuse To 'Challenge' Trump When He's A Guest On Their Podcasts

Actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis called out comedians who have had President Donald Trump on their podcasts and didn't "challenge" him, noting that they've effectively abdicated their role by not making jokes at Trump's expense or pushing back against things he says.

Galifianakis made that argument during a recent episode of Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, where host Conan O'Brien remarked that few, if any, people have challenged a sitting president the way Galifianakis did when he interviewed then-President Barack Obama in 2014 on his satirical series Between Two Ferns.
