NEW STATEMENT FROM #SCOTUS CHIEF JUSTICE #JohnRoberts:
"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."

Just hours after #Trump called for the #impeachment of a federal judge who ruled against his #deportation of hundreds of Venezuelans over the weekend, & after Trump's comments targeting Judge #Boasburg spurred a rare public rebuke from #SCOTUS Chief Justice #JohnRoberts, #HouseRepublicans led by Rep #BrandonGill introduced articles of impeachment against Boasberg.

#GOP *lawmakers* have unleashed an unprecedented flood of long-shot #impeachment articles aimed at federal judges who are standing in the way of #Trump's agenda.
James #Boasberg, chief judge of the DC District Court, is at least the fifth federal judge who is facing a #HouseRepublicans impeachment attempt after issuing a ruling unfavorable to the admin.
#BrandonGill's bogus four-page #impeachment resolution charges Judge #Boasberg with abuse of power, arguing that he "did knowingly & willfully use his judicial position to advance political gain."
It argues that the #AlienEnemiesAct gives #Trump "sole & unreviewable discretion" to determine whether an "invasion has taken place" — & thus whether its powerful emergency provisions can be exercised. [nope]

#BrandonGill's measure is co-sponsored by Reps. #EliCrane (R-#Arizona), #BuddyCarter (R-#Georgia), #MikeCollins (R-GA), #BarryMoore (R-#Alabama) & #AndrewClyde (R-GA).
#Republicans have also moved to #impeach federal judges Paul Engelmayer, John McConnell Jr., John Bates & Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali — all for ruling in some way against #Trump.
Unbelievable willful ignorance:
#Trump said that #SCOTUS Chief Justice #JohnRoberts’ statement on Tues didn’t mention him by name while doubling down on his call to #impeach a federal judge who ruled against his admin in a high-profile #deportation case.
In an interview on Tues w/ FauxNews’ Laura Ingraham, Trump was asked what his reaction was to Roberts stepping in to make a statement after Trump called for impeaching US District Judge James #Boasberg.
“He didn’t mention my name in the statement. I just saw it quickly. He didn’t mention my name. But many people have called for his impeachment. The impeachment of this judge. I don’t know who the judge is. He is radical left. He is Obama-appointed,” #Trump said, acc/to an early clip shared on the social media.
What arrested development sounds like. Trump is a 5 year old, which is an insult to the thoughtful 5 year olds I have known.
Boasberg spoke the order and didn't write it so we didn't have to comply.
Biden used an autopen and not his own signature so it doesn't count.
Roberts didn't name me so I'm not responsible.
What a putz.
So the criminal and sex offender in power didn't use a quill pen to sign his illegal Executive Orders as a president would have in 1789. They are invalid on that basis, given the so-called Originalist interpretation the Constitution.
I'm 100% sure there were no Sharpies in the 18th Century. Everything that Trump has signed is invalid.
