Summary
The Trump administration has escalated attacks on U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt calling him a “Democrat activist” and criticizing his wife’s political donations.
This follows Boasberg’s order blocking the deportation of Venezuelan migrants the administration claims are gang members. Trump ignored the order and deported them to El Salvador.
Trump also called Boasberg a “Radical Left Lunatic” and backed impeachment efforts.
Chief Justice John Roberts rebuked Trump and reaffirmed that judicial decisions should not be grounds for impeachment.
Hm, is calling a judge a radical left lunatic an official act. Turns out only the court gets to decide. However it probably isn’t strictly illegal sadly.
