A radical judge who ordered the Trump Administration to turn around planes deporting Venezuelan gang members argued with DOJ lawyers about his “equitable powers” on Monday during a dramatic hearing. As previously reported, on Saturday morning, Judge James Boasberg, an Obama-appointee, granted a temporary restraining order (TRO) to stop the Trump administration from deporting thousands of Venezuelan nationals under the Alien Enemies Act. Far-left America-hating leftist groups such as the ACLU and Democracy Forward, rushed to a DC court in a desperate bid to shield dangerous illegal aliens from deportation. Later Saturday, Judge Boasberg issued an emergency injunction (it wasn’t filed yet) and ordered the Trump Administration to

Shouldn't he have heard from the administration first? Before issuing the restraining order?

Why didn't the judge and ACLU want these criminals out of the country? Since when does a judge have the authority to countermand the President of the United State? He sounds like a three year old demanding something - was he kicking and screaming at the same time? How do we get rid of these judges?

Brownshirt Judge James Boasberg "In 2020, he was appointed to the United States Alien Terrorist Removal Court and designated chief judge. His term ended in 2025" "The court has never received an application from the Attorney General for the removal of an alien terrorist, and has therefore conducted no proceedings" Violent ILLEGAL criminal gangbangers....sorry, the Court doesn't consider you an "alien terrorist"......Next.......What's For Lunch?(Taxpayer $$$)

The ACLU comes forward with a lawsuit claiming to represent 5 Venezuelan gang members, but declines to say who they are, and it is very likely none of whom were arrested in DC. Then the Judge issues a ruling on all Venezuelan deportations, even though none of them are before his court. Amazing! We can't expect anything from the SCOTUS though. They could not even recognize anyone contesting a stolen election had any standing.

Roberts announced that he would appoint Boasberg to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court for a term starting May 18, 2014 to a seat being vacated by Reggie Walton" "During the 111th Congress, Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton recommended Boasberg to fill a judicial vacancy on the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.[12] On June 17, 2010, President Barack Obama formally nominated Boasberg to the district court for the District of Columbia"

Impeach him? Hell no. Arrest him for treason against the United States. This is an unconstitutional abuse of judicial power and an attempt to usurp the authority of the President and the executive branch. Make him defend himself and his actions in a court of law and try to make bail. The DOJ should go on the offense and not play defense with this nutty judge.

Sounds like this judge, who just happens to have a slew of cases he ruled all against President Trump, is confusing the equal branch to equal powers (or as he states, equitable powers). When the Executive (President) has authority over the entire Executive Branch. Judge Boasberg is only a DC Circuit judge - he is not Chief Justice of the SCOTUS.

Elon Musk's attempt to unilaterally dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development likely violated the United States Constitution, a federal judge ruled on Tuesday. U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang ordered Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency to immediately give USAID employees access to their "email, payment, security notification, and all other electronic systems," and ordered a pause on any efforts to shut down USAID. Judge Chuang wrote that Musk's takeover "usurped the authority of the public's elected representatives in Congress to make decisions on whether, when, and how to eliminate a federal government agency, and of Officers of the United States duly appointed under the Constitution

The Biden appointee who headed a $42.5 billion program to provide broadband internet access in rural America, which hooked up exactly ZERO homes in three years, has quit in a huff. Democrat apparatchik Evan Feinman resigned Sunday and left behind a blistering, counterfactual, and self-serving letter blaming Elon Musk, “Stranding all or part of rural America with worse internet so that we can make the world’s richest man even richer is yet another in a long line of betrayals by Washington.” Apparently, Feinman's departure was preciptiated by Commerce Secretary Howard Luttnick's intention to change the focus of the program from laying fiber optic cable to providing rural internet service,

Former Surgeon General Vivek Murthy's declaration of gun violence as a "public health crisis" has been wiped rom the website of the Department of Health and Human Services; a move the White House said is a direct result of the president's executive order directing Attorney General Pam Bondi to

The federal judge blocking President Trump’s bid to deport alleged Venezuelan gangsters once showed leniency to an FBI Russiagate lawyer who fudged evidence to surveil a Trump campaign official. US District Judge James Boasberg gave former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith probation instead of jail time four years ago when the latter pleaded guilty to forging an email used as evidence to surveil 2016 Trump campaign official Carter Page. “Courts all over the country rely on representations from the government and expect them to be correct,” Boasberg chided at the time. But Boasberg ordered Clinesmith to serve 12 months of probation and perform 400 hours of community service instead of spending

Littlejohn’s short sentence results from the DOJ charging him with only one count of unauthorized disclosure of tax information and then offering a plea deal, which Republicans blasted as too lenient.

If I may, I’d liked to suggest to the AP that they spend less time cry-babying about not gaining access to certain White House events and more time NOT lying.
