Impeaching James E. Boasberg, United States District Court Chief Judge for the District of Columbia, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Sponsored By: Representative Gill, Brandon [R-TX-26]

Introduced

Summary

Abuse of judicial power is the central charge. The resolution would impeach Chief Judge James E. Boasberg, accusing him of knowingly using his office to advance political ends and to override the President's authority under the Alien Enemies Act. It points to two specific acts: preventing removal of aliens tied to the Tren de Aragua terrorist group and forcing planes carrying those aliens to turn around. The text asserts these actions substitute judicial judgment for presidential discretion, threaten national safety, and amount to high crimes and misdemeanors meriting removal.
