US Chief Justice John Roberts slams Trump's call to impeach a federal judge
Briefly

President Trump has called for the impeachment of Judge James Boasberg after the judge ruled against a Trump administration deportation effort. Chief Justice John Roberts issued a rare rebuke, asserting that threatening impeachment is unacceptable and highlighting the established norms that disagreement with judicial rulings should follow the appellate process. Trump criticized Judge Boasberg, labeling him as a 'Radical Left Lunatic,' and argued that presidential authority should outweigh judicial power. Boasberg ordered an end to deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, which has historical precedence in wartime, yet the Trump administration might have violated his orders.
Threatening a federal judge with impeachment is not acceptable. For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision.
This Radical Left Lunatic of a Judge, a troublemaker and agitator who was sadly appointed by Barack Hussein Obama, was not elected President.
