If the president can ignore court orders and illegally circumvent Congress, there is no Constitution. It’s gone. There’s no enumerated right that the president can’t take from you, no law Congress can pass that is binding, and no court that can protect you from any of it. It’s the whole ballgame.

@JuliusGoat meanwhile we aren't even defending the idea that Elon isn't really in the govt. I haven't seen the first suit or congressional action that says advise and consent in required.

@_L1vY_ @JuliusGoat but can he be a secretary of a high level department if he hasn't been vetted? That's my real question. The entire concept should be in front of judges, but the dumb Republicans are refusing to try to maintain the power of the legislature.
