'Why not?' CNN host gets testy as Jim Jordan ducks question on impeaching judge

A CNN anchor got testy with Rep. Jim Jordan, top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, on Wednesday as he attacked a judge who ordered the Trump administration to turn around a plane loaded with migrants being deported. Jordan said that while the "remedy for bad decisions" is typically the appellate court, in this case, he surmised that it seems there "may be something a little different here." Jordan noted the judge, James "Jeb" Boasberg, has previously worked in the U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court during the "whole Trump-Russia balogna" "I think you might have here a judge who's acting in a political fashion," Jordan said. Jordan said "all options are on the table" when it comes to the judge, and vowed to "dig in" and "research" more about the judge. "When you really step back, Kasie, and look at how stupid the decision was by this judge, I mean he basically said — well not basically, he did say — turn the plane around, bring back gang members, hardened criminals who've done all kinds of bad things, who were here illegally, turn the plane around and bring those bad guys back to the country," Jordan railed.
