<p>A House GOP proposal seeks to remove an Obama-appointed judge who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/president-trump-says-judge-blocking-deportations-should-be-impeached" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blocked</a> President Donald Trump’s administration from conducting deportation flights of suspected Venezuelan gang members under the Alien Enemies Act.</p>
<p>Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) unveiled on Monday a <a href="https://biggs.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/biggs.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/biggs-resolution-to-remove-judge-boasberg-good-behavior-clause.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resolution</a> to remove James Boasberg, Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, for alleged “failure to maintain the standard of good behavior” mandated by Article III, Section 1 of the Constitution.</p>
<p>“Judge Boasberg abused his judicial authority for political gain and is not in compliance with the constitutional Good Behavior Clause. He must not be permitted to remain in his position,” Biggs <a href="https://biggs.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-biggs-introduces-resolution-remove-judge-boasberg-failure-comply" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement. “Congress has a duty to fulfill the promises we’ve made to the American people, including defending the President’s authority to enforce our laws.”</p>
<p>Biggs noted that he is the co-sponsor of resolutions to impeach Boasberg, but acknowledged that the effort is doomed to fail in the face of Democrat opposition because it requires a two-thirds majority in order for any judge to be removed from office. Republicans have only a slim, 53-seat majority in the upper chamber.</p>
<p>“My resolution, on the other hand, asserts, pursuant to Article III, Section 1, that rogue judges may be removed the same way we confirm them — by a simple majority,” Biggs added.</p>
<p>Some Republicans and Trump have pushed for the impeachment of Boasberg, who was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/meet-the-obama-appointed-judge-trying-to-stop-trump-from-deporting-criminal-illegals" target="_blank" rel="noopener">involved</a> with the Russiagate scandal and has been <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/judge-boasberg-blocked-deportation-signal-chat-lawsuit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">assigned</a> to a Signalgate lawsuit, and other judges who have issued orders stopping the president from taking certain actions amid legal challenges.</p>
<p>However, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts issued a rare statement <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/chief-justice-john-roberts-speaks-out-against-trump-backed-push-to-impeach-judges" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declaring</a> the “normal appellate review process exists” for the purpose of fighting a judicial decision. And House GOP leadership is moving ahead with hearings and legislation. On Wednesday, the lower chamber is <a href="https://x.com/rachel_schilke/status/1906796673596326294" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expected</a> to vote on a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-to-vote-on-restraining-nationwide-injunctions-stop-judicial-overreach-against-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bill</a> that seeks to stem the tide of federal judges issuing nationwide injunctions against the Trump administration.</p>
<p>Biggs said: “We cannot stand by while activist judges who incorrectly believe they have more authority than the duly-elected President of the United States, impose their own political agenda on the American people.”</p>
