The New York Post criticized Elon Musk for his call to impeach federal Judge James Boasberg, who temporarily halted deportation flights of illegal immigrant gang members. The editorial underscored the importance of adhering to the rule of law, even in efforts to combat illegal immigration. While the Post acknowledged President Trump's intentions, it defended the legal process that allows challenges to executive orders. The piece warned that Musk's support for the impeachment effort made him appear reckless and questioned the legal basis for the administration's actions under the Alien Enemies Act, suggesting potential Supreme Court involvement.
The Post editorial board argued that Elon Musk is way out of his lane in cheering a bid to impeach federal Judge James Boasberg, who's put a temporary hold on deportation.
Even deporting illegal gangbangers must heed the rule of law, and while the right-leaning newspaper praised Trump for his aims, it acknowledged the legitimacy of the legal challenge.
Challenging that in court is perfectly kosher, as is the judge ordering a pause on new flights until he can hear arguments in the case.
Musk cheering the impeachment plan only makes him look reckless, a reputation he doesn't need when many are already wary of his influence.
