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.

Dem Rep. Offers Brutally Accurate Reason For Why He Can't Understand 'The Mind Of Donald Trump'

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

With the United States set to host the 2026 World Cup, a video out of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is drawing attention for a very different reason: showing a man ripping apart an Iraqi soccer fan’s banner and telling them, “Don’t come to America.”

The video, posted on Instagram, shows a group of Iraqi sports fans standing in an airport holding a banner with Arabic and Spanish writing. The fans were there to support Iraq during their World Cup qualifier against Bolivia, which resulted in a 2-1 upset victory earlier that day.

E-cigarettes have dramatically increased in popularity in recent years and are often even portrayed as a cool accessory on social media. Unfortunately, disposable, one-time-use e-cigarettes have been made affordable and easily accessible, and instead of properly disposing of them, people often leave them on the ground like cigarette butts.
