A House GOP lawmaker has officially filed articles of impeachment against Chief Judge James E. Boasberg of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, accusing him of abusing his judicial power to block President Trump’s deportation efforts.
Congressman Brandon Gill (R-TX) introduced the resolution on Tuesday, citing Boasberg’s intervention as a direct constitutional violation that obstructed the president’s enforcement of immigration law. “By thwarting President Trump’s lawful efforts to deport violent illegal alien gangsters, Judge Boasberg created a constitutional crisis. He is unfit for judicial office,” Gill wrote in a statement on social media.
The resolution, introduced in the House of Representatives, formally accuses Boasberg of high crimes and misdemeanors, specifically charging him with abuse of power by interfering in the executive branch’s authority to enforce federal law, including the Alien Enemies Act.
The resolution states: “Chief Judge Boasberg, in violation of his oath of office, did knowingly and willfully use his judicial position to advance political gain while interfering with the President’s constitutional prerogatives and enforcement of the rule of law.”
The impeachment article argues that under the Alien Enemies Act, the president has sole and unreviewable discretion to determine whether an invasion has taken place and to act accordingly. It cites Supreme Court precedent from Ludecke v. Watkins (1948), which affirmed that such executive determinations are not subject to judicial review.

Hopefully a vote of the House on these articles will be successful.
