I just called for the impeachment of Judge Boasberg.
Boasberg is the poster child for rogue judges:
• Forcing his way onto Trump cases
• Fomenting a judicial "resist" campaign
• Issuing illegal gag orders on GOP Senators.
This rogue judge must go. Let's recap. 🧵

Judge Boasberg has a habit of forcing himself onto high-profile Trump cases that land in his court.
None was more notorious than the "Turn the Planes Around" case, where he tried to recall the deportation of MS-13 gang members under the Alien Enemies Act.

As Chief Judge, Boasberg likely knew the case was coming.
Despite not being the emergency judge on duty, he forced himself onto this case late at night while he was on vacation.

Thankfully, Boasberg has been repeatedly overturned.
In the "Turn the Planes Around" case, the Supreme Court vacated his order—and the D.C. Circuit later reversed his sanctions on Trump’s lawyers.

Like several rogue judges, Boasberg has repeatedly ruled against Trump.
But this summer, a memo revealed that Boasberg (and others) harbored an open bias—and fear—of the Trump Administration.
We cannot have openly biased judges. Justice must be blind.

My investigative work uncovered that he was partisan from the start.
I unearthed new records from his confirmation under the Obama Administration where he may have hinted toward political bias in his judging.

These things led the DOJ to pursue a misconduct complaint against Judge Boasberg. That process is currently ongoing.
Judges aren't politicians in robes—they're judges.

Then, just this week, new documents revealed that Boasberg abused his judicial discretion and the judicial power in the "Arctic Frost" fishing expedition, targeting U.S. Senators' phone records with secret gag orders.

Worse: Boasberg likely broke the law.
Under 2 U.S.C. § 6628, his gag order (on a Senate device) violates the explicit requirement to notify the Senate office of any legal process seeking disclosure of its data.

It's time for Boasberg to go.
Not only is he biased and abusing his power as Chief Judge—he has likely broken the law to advance government weaponization.
The House must begin impeachment proceedings.
