April 15th is just around the corner. Act now before the IRS acts first. The defining story of President Trump's second term, the ongoing incredible battle between his administration and the courts over the limits of executive power. A wave of court orders blocking executive actions has been met with congressional Republicans now launching impeachment efforts against some of the judges responsible.
Why did Israel resume military action in Gaza?
On Tuesday, Texas Congressman Brandon Gill filing articles of impeachment against D.C. District Court Judge James Boasberg. Judge Boasberg temporarily blocked the Trump administration from using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport suspected Trenda Aragua gang members. President Trump lending support to the articles of impeachment, writing on Truth Social, quote, "...this radical left lunatic of a judge, a troublemaker, an agitator, who was sadly appointed by Barack Hussein Obama, was not elected president." This judge, just like many of the crooked judges I am forced to appear before, should be impeached. Chief Justice John Roberts wading into the issue with a rare public statement on Tuesday afternoon. The Chief Justice writing, "...for more than two centuries it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose."
The DOJ is currently locked in the appeals process fighting lawsuits that allege executive overreach. Judge Boasberg drawing prosecutors into a related legal battle, questioning whether they violated his Saturday order, demanding the return of two planes deporting Tren de Aragua members to El Salvador. The Trump administration, backed by Supreme Court precedent, asserting these courts have no jurisdiction over the president's ability to deport illegal alien invaders. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller making the case in a contentious interview on CNN.
The Alien Enemies Act, which was passed into law by the founding generation of this country, was written explicitly to give the president the authority to repel an alien invasion of the United States. That is not something that a district court judge has any authority whatsoever to interfere with.
In a separate case, a different federal judge stepping in to block another key Trump initiative, realigning foreign aid with America's first priorities. On Tuesday afternoon, U.S. District Judge Theodore Chung, an Obama appointee, ordering Doge to reinstate access to email and other electronic systems for all U.S. AID employees and contractors, finding that Elon Musk and Doge overstepped their authority as non-confirmed executive operatives. Judge Chung writing, quote, they deprived the public's elected representatives in Congress of their constitutional authority to decide whether, when and how to close down an agency created by Congress.
