After he had enough of the disastrous problems caused by woke, activist judges using their influence on the bench to push political agendas, DOGE head Elon Musk slammed their dangerous behavior. In a powerful interview on Fox News, he exposed the severe threat they pose to the American legal system’s integrity and to the Constitution.
For context, Tech billionaire Elon Musk, the captain behind the wheel of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), made those powerful and important comments on the state of the judiciary when speaking about the profound national consequences of the Wisconsin judicial race during an interview with Fox News on May 31st, ahead of the spring 2025 elections. He noted how a disfavorable outcome could spell disastrous repercussions for the future of the Republican Party.
During his Fox News Channel interview, Elon explained to host Jeanine Pirro that the election is essential to the Republican agenda because liberal Wisconsin Circuit Court Judge Susan Crawford is on the ballot. The interview started with a simple question: “Okay, so Elon, for one last time, why don’t you remind the viewers why the election in Wisconsin is so important to America as well as the Trump agenda?”
Notorious for his sense of humor, Musk started his response by making a witty comment on the election falling on April Fool’s Day; Musk replied, “This is not an April Fool’s joke. This is very real. So a judge’s race election in Wisconsin will decide whether or not the Democrats can gerrymander Wisconsin to remove two House seats from Republican to Democrat.”
Expanding his reasoning, Musk then emphasized that the judicial race could drastically alter the balance of power in Congress. He said, “Because of the razor-thin margins in the House, that would mean potentially a flip of the House from Republican to Democrat. That means that at the next election, roughly less than two years from now, the House will then immediately take action to stop the president’s agenda.”
Following up on his point of a potential power shift from a newly elected liberal judge, Musk reminded viewers of President Trump’s determination to follow through on the will of the people. He said, “And it’s always worth reminding people the president was elected with a majority of the people of America, the majority, a meaningful majority of the popular vote. So all the President is trying to do is implement the will of the people, and they’re trying to stop the will of the people through judicial trickery.”
The DOGE leader continued emphasizing the severity, making it clear that the issue with liberal judges reaches beyond electoral consequences. He said, “In general, there’s a huge problem with activists who are actually politicians in judges’ robes. And that needs to stop. It’s undermining the integrity, the reality, and the perception of the integrity of the legal system of the United States.”

Concluding the interview, Musk made a final point to condemn the judges for their betrayal of democracy. He stated, “These fake judges should be ashamed of themselves. They are not. They are just pretending to be judges. But they are not. They are making the law instead of implementing the law. It’s wrong.” Watch the exchange here:
