Well, it looks like Rep. Andy Biggs has had enough of robe-wearing resistance theater and is finally doing what plenty of Americans have wanted to see for years: calling for the removal of an Obama-appointed judge who thinks the bench is a pulpit for political activism. Judge James Boasberg, currently presiding as Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for D.C., decided he was going to be the one-man border czar and blocked deportation flights of suspected Venezuelan gang members.
Yes, suspected violent criminals, and this judge stepped in to protect them. Because when the safety of American citizens clashes with the feelings of the international Left, we all know which side the Obama judges are going to choose.
Biggs isn’t just venting on Fox News about it—he’s introducing a resolution to remove Boasberg under Article III, Section 1 of the Constitution, which requires judges to maintain “good behavior.” Apparently, shielding foreign gang members from deportation and interfering with presidential authority doesn’t make the cut. Imagine that.
The best part? Biggs is offering a legal path that doesn’t rely on the nearly impossible two-thirds majority needed for impeachment. Because let’s be real, the odds of getting 67 senators to do anything more productive than name a post office are slim to none. So Biggs is saying, why not use the same simple majority that confirmed Boasberg to begin with? It’s bold, sure—but it’s the kind of aggressive constitutional muscle-flexing that conservatives have been begging for while activist judges run wild.

Predictably, the judicial aristocracy is circling the wagons. Chief Justice John Roberts—who always seems to find his voice when it’s time to protect the institution but not so much when the Constitution’s getting steamrolled—chimed in with a rare pearl-clutching statement about “normal appellate review.” Right. Because if there’s anything that screams accountability, it’s a three-year legal slog that ends in a split decision and a Supreme Court shrug.
And let’s not forget that this isn’t Boasberg’s first rodeo. He was knee-deep in the Russiagate mess, happily overseeing FISA warrants that were later proven to be riddled with omissions and errors. And now he’s conveniently landed in the middle of the new Signalgate lawsuit too. Funny how these judges always end up holding the gavel in the cases most likely to protect the left’s narratives and obstruct anything Trump tries to do.
But the cherry on top is Boasberg stepping in to halt deportations under the Alien Enemies Act—legislation that’s been on the books since 1798, designed specifically to deal with threats from foreign nationals during times of national danger. You’d think a federal judge might be familiar with that. But when your entire worldview is built around shielding the Democratic Party’s preferred constituencies from consequences, maybe that detail gets lost somewhere between the law books and the MSNBC green room.
Federal judges do not have lifetime tenure.
They can remain on their bench only when they’re engaged in good conduct.
If they fail to regulate themselves, Congress must step in and remove corrupt judges. pic.twitter.com/oo1fdOORKN

The House GOP isn’t stopping at Boasberg either. On Wednesday, they’re teeing up a vote to stop federal judges from issuing sweeping nationwide injunctions every time Trump sneezes in the direction of executive authority. It’s about time. Judges were never meant to act like robed legislators with lifetime terms and zero accountability. And when one steps over the line—especially to protect foreign nationals who have no legal right to remain here, let alone terrorize our communities—Congress has not just a right but a duty to respond.
So go ahead and clutch your pearls, liberal media. The rest of us are applauding. Because when an unelected judge blocks the president from deporting gang members, it’s not justice—it’s sabotage. And if James Boasberg can’t tell the difference, maybe it’s time he found another line of work.
