Judge James Boasberg has been knocked down twice today. [RULING HERE]
(VIA CNN) – A divided federal appeals court ruled on Friday that US District Court Judge James Boasberg cannot move ahead with criminal contempt proceedings against Trump administration officials involved in a high-stakes immigration case.
The 2-1 ruling from the US DC Circuit Court of Appeals wipes away a ruling from Boasberg, an appointee of former President Barack Obama issued in April that said “probable cause exists” to hold administration officials in criminal contempt for violating his orders in mid-March halting the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members.
The appeals court had temporarily put Boasberg’s plans on ice while it weighed the government’s appeal of the ruling, and Friday’s ruling represents a significant setback for the judge, who had vowed to hold officials involved in the matter accountable.
In a separate decision on Friday, the DC Circuit wiped away a different ruling from Boasberg that required the administration to give the migrants flown to a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act an opportunity to challenge their removal from the US under the sweeping wartime law.

A well-earned double b!tch slap for Boasberg. Winning!!!
He can go cry a river to his bestie John Roberts to do something.
Have a nice weekend “judge”.
Just don’t call him an “Obama” judge because there are no Obama judges. Yeah…riggght!
but not enough. i do not want to be taxed nor forced to fund the livlihood and corruption of Jebediah
Couldn’t of happened to a more deserving a.. hole!
That arrogant egotist deserves to be decked by whatever is the legal equivalent of a knockout punch to the nose.
Boasberg is as dirty as any of the other Russiagate criminals.
SCOTUS Chief Justice Roberts allows it to continue.
SCOTUS CHIEF is ‘Daddy’s Little Boy’ GW Bush’s GIFT TO AMERICA! We will be paying the price for his foolish decisions for a long, long time!
Roberts is dirty too.
could be a pedo. theyve got something on him
Roberts is one who’s likely scared to death over the Epstein BS. Hopefully the rumors about Roberts and Epstein are true. It will remove the deep state’s blackmail hold over him if it all becomes public
Consider the legal ramifications of this, noting it “could be the cause” of Judge Canon’s recent ruling on the Epstein GJ transcripts. From the corrupt DoJ case, we can have a goodly degree of confidence in her decision…
If Robert’s is ID’d, with meaningful legal evidence to support his indictment & trial + conviction…
Every single USSC case he had any influence over, whether hearing/not hearing, every meaningful split decision, etc… All of them would HAVE to be vacated & reheard…
Every single one.
Not possible. He would simply end up having a “condition” that prevented him from continuing on the USSC…
The legal impact alone would be a crushing Constitutional Crisis. You know, “Court of Last Resort” and all…
As dirty as Judge Elihu Smails
Anyone who will loofah the stretch marks of Dianne Feinstein can’t be dirty….Twisted? Maybe.
Roberts is a bushbot whose children were illegally adopted foreigners.
Be nice to have him all of a sudden take. LOA
John Roberts is not his boss.
The House can impeach and the Senate can convict and force him to vacate. That’s the solution.
Johnny is not Boasberg’s direct boss but Roberts does oversee the D.C. Circuit.
He is one of the RussiaGate criminals by virtue of the FISA rulings.
And the weak sauce treatment of Clinesmith, so that he couldn’t use the POS to squeeze whomever directed Clinesmith’s criminal activity.
better not cross boasberg the moron
Much, much dirtier by wearing a robe while committing crimes.
Love the unintentional dig by CNN, “put Boasberg’s plans on ice”.
Should have read “put Obama’s plans via Boasberg on ice“!
Or, “Obama/Boasberg’s Coup now on Ice,… their Assets soon to be Frozen!”
With Boasberg getting slapped down twice today it would be a great time to drop the hint hes also neck deep in the Epstein BS. He looks like a pedophile
BOA sberg is a snake…
Great to see his power has been constricted 🙂
Now go after him for giving Klingsworth a wrist slap for lying on a FISA warrant (felony) yet threw the book at the J6ers that appeared before him on misdemeanor charges. The nooses being structured for all the treasonous participants are going to get tighter when judgement day arrives.
ISWYDT!
That’s an insult to all reptiles.
WORDMAN comes through again!
This is positive, but have to get to the Roberts-Boasberg nexus.
After Powell’s forced resignation, President Trump turns his sights on Roberts.
“Judge James Boasberg has been knocked down twice today.”
Twice. As in: boom, boom, out go the lights?
We can only hope.
Boasberg is a true believer who belongs to a America hating cult. You haven’t heard the last from him.
He should have taken a lesson from Rosemary Collyer!
Nosferatu can now retire to his crypt.
It’s like Whack-a-Mole though, just as Boasberg gets slapped down, who should show up to represent Letticia James but Boasbergs fellow club member Abbe Lowell.
These Lawfare Socialists are everywhere!
That’s ok. Ed Martin can take care of him.
That’s exactly who Boasberg looks like! Excellent!!💁🏻♀️
This judge needs to face impeachment.
Waste of time will never get removed.
Jeannie Pirro should indict him for breathing
he needs to fall off a cliff or die in a car accident
Boasberg will just try to make up for it the next time he gets “randomly assigned” to a Trump related case.
And the next time.
And the next time.
And the next time.
And the next time.
And the next time.
And the next time…..
But the media will back him every time and never comment in all of those “random assignments”.
There is a clerk that is assigning Trump related cases to the communist judges. How does this criminality get rectified? Is there a mechanism for impeachment of clerks?
He’s still a judge, unembarrassed by what he’s done and his wife and daughter are still taking taxpayer dollars through their NGOs, so where’s the bitch slap? Like The Bidens are free and have kept all their loot and they don’t care what sort of noise get put out about them.

Boasberg and Beryl Howell are the two federal judges that made the Russian Collusion Hoax and Mar-a-Lago Documents case possible with their criminal actions targeting President Trump!
Knowing their ideology…probably haven’t heard the end of them…
Good grief, there he is again.
In the meantime, the administration was prevented from implementing its directives.
Justice delayed is Justice denied.
And this 🤡 headed the super secret FISA court…
“And this 🤡 headed the super secret FISA court…”
It’s almost as if his appointment to the court was done intentionally………………../
Good. Another dirtbag slapped down. 🙏❤️
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.”
Such comforting words..
They are righteous words. I pray this over President Trump routinely.
My question is when this turd is going to be suspended and fined for his judicial malpractice. Severe consequences need to be applied here, like a fine of 2 years pay and a 5-year suspension.
Every Senate Republican voted “YES” to confirm Boasberg!
That’s how F’up the Republicans are!
Uniparty.
He needs more severe charges, just to take him out. We put bounties on leaders of other countries that think there Kings and destroy peoples lives. Time to do something to these unconstitutional judges that take illegals over American citizens!
Boasberg needs to be vacated from any court room!!💁🏻♀️
Calling that a ‘split’ is cute and meant to downplay the legitimacy of the ruling.
I consider the result that two judges agreed, one didn’t, and that’s not a split: that’s a lonely dissent.
It’s CNN, what do you expect?
67% or 2/3 rds of the judges thought Boasberg was wrong.
That’s million man math.
The actions PDJT47 should take.
Federalize DC, dissolve home rule, and return to the gov’t described in the Constitution.
Designated a 10 sq mile monument and office district. Give everything north of it to MD and everything south to VA.
Have the House dissolve the DC circuit. Dont put the judges over half of whom are not natural born citizens anywhere else.
If Boasburg is still on there when if comes up for renewal, veto the 702 FISA Court..
I like everything you said except giving the southern half of DC to VA. We don’t want it. MD can absorb it into PG county and they can expand their gangbanging unions.
I thought by dividing it up it might keep either one of them from getting another House Seat.
Ahhh yes………Divide and conquer. A time honored tradition.
And if I might ad…
I happened to open my Bible to Luke Chapter 18 and was not surprised to see an image drawn that looked very much like Boasburg.
The DOJ attorneys that go before him and Chutokan, and every judge appointed by FJB there at the end of his term, should demand that they recuse themselves. FJB even bragged that all were chosen for their promise to oppose and obstruct PDJT47. Cite FJBs own words and demand they recuse themselves.
Lots of non citizens with power in the police force in DC government that think it’s okay to beat and kill citizens. Time to drop them in Africas wartorn countries!
Corrupt judge. Many more like him. Twisted lawfare.
Sort of sad that he’s worried about justice. He doesn’t even know theword.
He spells it just-us.
That excludes you and I.
THANK YOU LORD!!!
Boasberg has tipped over, just like Hank Johnson said he would.
next up is the DOJ misconduct complaint filed against this judicial corruptocrat: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/doj-files-misconduct-complaint-against-judge-handling-key-deportations-case. Time is long overdue to eliminate funding for his judicial district…
Now: bring Boasberg up on charges of bias against the Trump Administrations, both 45 & 47
Judges have the lowest bar for removal.

Every DOJ lawyer appearing before him should hand him that list and ask for recusal before the case even starts.
Why is CNN controlling cookie use on CTH for this article?
It is not related to CTH. If you go to that link from anywhere you get the same pop-up. They want you to read their Ts&Cs and accept it. If you have Firefox, you can bypass the popup by using the “toggle read view (F9)” in the upper right of the address bar next to the “star”. This will then present a text version of the article without interference (you can do this on most popups that want you to click before you read).
Threadwinner!
Thankee thankee!
Thanks be to God!
I still think the House should subpoena his partisan ass.
🚁 ride for Foulsberg
Boasberg needs to be removed from the bench. His bias and assumption he can overrule the chief executive on issues of national security clearly shows him to be unfit to be a judge.
Time to charge the judge with treason or sedition or both. Take him out permanently!
“Chief Judge Boasberg faced immense pressure to make a quick decision in a rapidly evolving, high-stakes situation. He performed that task calmly and with an even hand, bringing to bear his skill and wisdom as an experienced jurist,” Pillard wrote.
What Judge Pillard failed to address is how it is that all of these anti-Trump cases keep ending up in Boasberg’s courtroom, even when he is on vacation and not even at work!
These dirty judges (Boasberg included) outed themselves when they all showed up to attend Trumps arraignment.
Solidarity and a show of power for the criminal deep state.
That was August 2023 when once again they were certain they “had him”.
That quote from Pillard sounds like Boasberg helped write it. I can see them in my minds eye collaborating on it, and in usual lefty fashion relying on “feelings” and “emotions” rather than reason and law. Also, how does she know Boasberg acted “calmly” ? Was she there when he made his decision?!?!
Nuremberg – was designed explicitly for assholes such as Boasberg.
Judge Biasberg is on the short list for the Emmet Sullivan Award for judicial malfeasance.
WHO gave this jerk his start in DC?
Judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia
In office September 2002 – March 14, 2011
Appointed by George W. Bush
The Bushies have done more than enought to destroy this country and it people.
Judges might not like it, but immigration law as written DOES give substantial power and discretion to “the President.” And, very little say to the accused, who can be immediately and unceremoniously deported. They do not have standing before US Courts to appeal what is lawfully being done to them.
Trump made a forceful declaration and called for strident enforcement. Which was his prerogative. The Judiciary has no power to hold “Article 2” in contempt because they don’t agree.
ICE is operating fully within their lawful powers, and they are getting sh&t done.
RE: illegal aliens
“They do not have standing before US Courts to appeal what is lawfully being done to them.”
If those illegals ever did gain standing in our courts it would signify the end to our rights as US citizens having any meaning at all.
Boasberg handed out 5 year, 10 year and 20 year prison sentences to harmless J6 defendants like M&Ms on Halloween except for Ray Epps.
Boasberg gave Ray Epps probation via a ZOOM Call without even making him show-up in court!
Boasberg is a very dark individual.
No one who is truly a judge that subscribes to his oath would ever have shown up in that courtroom where DJT sat as the defendant to watch the proceedings.
I will never forget that.
Tonight, having lost twice today, I am sure he will not sleep. I am sure he has been plotting another way to get at POTUS.
How horribly embarrassing for any jurist, but particularly for this idiot.
Ba da BOOM 💥
All I am waiting for is him getting wrapped up in the 2016 grand conspiracy.
When a judge’s rulings are set aside over and over again, it might be good policy to get them off the bench so they can return to law school for a few semesters.
Nah, disbarment. 100% knows that he is doing. Even if somehow he doesn’t, incompetence can’t be used as a shield. But it’s likely he is shielded by the DC Bar itself.
The FISA judge?
Yeah, that guy.
Maybe Patriot Gabbard should release some info about Boasberg’s involvement in RussiaGate next? 🤔
Ah, “Wouldn’t it be loverly?”
What is remedy for a judge who repeatedly issues rulings that are overturned by higher courts?
How does this guy keep his job?
Keep his job? It’s why they gave him the job!
Grouse hunting with Dick Cheney.
I wonder if any of these DOJ investigations coupled with the proper warrants will ever review of the COMMS of some of the alleged criminal conspiracy participants?
And if so if they use the hop rule I wonder if it might touch a few justices?
Is there any chance they can find e-mails or whistleblowers that will tie this dirt-bag Boasberg into the conspiracy? The fact that he mysteriously ends up on all the “get-Trump” cases tells me he is up to his eyeballs in a skullduggery.
And his eyes are too close together.
Winning🇺🇲🙏👍
Fixed IT
Very good. Strong resemblance to Bozo.
Boasberg is an obozobot.
Say that three times fast.
