Summary
The Trump administration has escalated attacks on U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt calling him a “Democrat activist” and criticizing his wife’s political donations.
This follows Boasberg’s order blocking the deportation of Venezuelan migrants the administration claims are gang members. Trump ignored the order and deported them to El Salvador.
Trump also called Boasberg a “Radical Left Lunatic” and backed impeachment efforts.
Chief Justice John Roberts rebuked Trump and reaffirmed that judicial decisions should not be grounds for impeachment.
They mentioned that the judges wife donated $10,000 to Democrats. Just want to point out that “we” did that with Alito’s wife as well.
We have a lot of fuel to be angry at the fascists, this seems like less of one.
Obviously not the same, just something I’m thinking about I guess.
“We” meaning a bunch of goobers on the internet, or the Whitehouse press secretary?
We meaning goobers on the Internet and the YouTube pundits, I guess
Context matters. Alito has done a shit ton more with the GOP than just their wife donating to them.
So now we’re promoting this judge to Supreme Court, and equating a $10k political donation to publicly displaying partisan support and $250k investment directly benefitted by her husbands ruling?
Bullshit false equivalency.
