Federal Judge James Boasberg

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has attacked a federal judge who made a decision against President Donald Trump, calling him an activist and attacking his wife for her political contributions.

Trump himself referred to Judge James Boasberg as a “radical left lunatic” and threatened to impeach him after he issued a temporary order halting deportation flights.

Leavitt argued that the judge is attempting to assert that the President lacks the executive authority to expel foreign terrorists from the United States.

She also mentioned that the deportation campaign will continue because the president has the authority under the Alien Enemies Act.

Judge Boasberg is an activist for the Democratic Party and was appointed by Barack Obama. Leavitt criticized the government’s refusal to reveal the identities of those flown to El Salvador, who the administration claims were part of violent gangs.

Despite opposition from Chief Justice John Roberts of the Supreme Court, Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert became the latest Trump supporter to support the initiative.

Boebert filed a resolution to impeach President Joe Biden during the previous Congress. Republican Rep. Brandon Gill declared that he would “file articles of impeachment against activist judge James Boasberg this week.”

Legal experts have warned that Trump is defying judicial review of his decisions, violating the separation of powers.

The US Supreme Court has issued a rebuke to President Trump, who called for the impeachment of a judge who blocked his bid to send Venezuelan gang members to El Salvador.

The Justice Department criticized the judge for running down details about the flights, accusing it of ‘digressive micromanagement’ and defending the decisions of a ‘coequal branch.’ The court criticized the comment as a ‘complete misunderstanding of the serious national security, safety, regulatory, and logistical problems presented by a fiat from the Court directed at pilots operating outside the United States.

The court’s statement came after Trump attacked a federal lower court judge as a ‘radical left lunatic’. The court’s decision comes as liberal legal scholars argue a constitutional crisis is looming over a crush of court orders reining in constitutional authority Trump claims is his alone.

The Supreme Court’s decision comes as some liberal legal scholars say a constitutional crisis is looming over a crush of court orders reinforcing Trump’s constitutional authority.

Trump has criticized the Justice Department’s decision to impeach Judge Aileen Cannon, who ruled in his favor in a classified documents case. Trump praised Cannon in an extraordinary speech at the Justice Department, stating that “fake lawyers” were hitting her hard.

Trump’s billionaire DOGE head and advisor Elon Musk has also been rallying to impeach judges who ruled against the administration on federal worker firings. House Republicans have taken up Musk’s call to impeach judges who have ruled against Trump.

Rep. Brandon Gill plans to file Articles of Impeachment against activist judge James Boasberg, who issued a temporary ruling blocking the deportations of over 200 people after the administration invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.

The White House said the people deported to El Salvador were members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, but has refused to provide the names of the people now incarcerated in El Salvador.

The American Bar Association warned against attempts to intimidate judges and the legal profession, stating that intimidation cannot be sanctioned or normalized.

Trump has criticized judges who ruled against him in his criminal trials, but Musk has been touring into judges using his platform to criticize them. The bar for impeaching an Article III federal judge is high, and House Republican Rep. Andy Ogles introduced a resolution to impeach Judge John Bates.
