Ex-federal judge flags 'frightening part' about Trump’s impeachment threats

Raw Story  

As President Donald Trump's executive actions continue to get shot down by federal judges, he's since retaliated by stoking calls for impeachment. This week, Trump and his biggest supporters have railed against both U.S. District Judge James Boasberg — who ordered two deportation flights be turned around in response to Trump invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 — and Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, who publicly rebuked Trump over his call to impeach Boasberg. Nancy Gertner, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, said Trump's impeachment threats are "nothing short of horrifying." Aside from Boasberg's ruling on this week's deportation flights, Trump has also complained about judges who have stymied his attempts to eradicate birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants, compelled him to disburse federal funds his administration froze despite Congress already appropriating the money and orders preventing representatives of billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency from accessing sensitive payment systems at the U.S. Treasury Department.
