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.

The Biggest Examples Of 'No Good Deed Goes Unpunished'

For every action we perform, there will be a consequence, whether it's positive or negative in nature.

We might know that, but sometimes, we still find ourselves surprised by what materializes from our actions, especially when we do something good, only for things to not go well for us in return.

Jerry quits Ben & Jerry's

After nearly half a century of puns, pint-sized protests, and spoon-first diplomacy via Cherry Garcia, Jerry Greenfield is hanging up his scooper.

The “Jerry” in Ben & Jerry’s has resigned after what he says was years of corporate censorship under Unilever—particularly during Trump’s second administration, when speaking up for civil rights suddenly required either a permission slip or a pink slip.

An Official Courtroom Sketch Of Luigi Mangione Is Going Viral For All The Wrong Reasons

Before cameras, courtroom sketch artists served a purpose. Even now, a sketch artist can provide visuals to accompany reporting of trials when no other form of recording during court sessions is allowed.

The artists try to stay close to what the defendant, witnesses, and everyone else look like, but they can sometime veer into the caricature, as Luigi Mangione has found during his heavily publicized court appearances.
