Democrat-appointed judges don’t even pretend to act like they are trying to follow the Constitution or figure out what the law actually says. That’s why they are called “activist judges.” And it’s a huge flaw in the legal system when Chief Justice John Roberts, the overseer of all the federal courts, does not order lower court judges to quit playing politics.
 
Case in point: Federal District Court Judge James Boasberg, nominated by Barack Obama.
 
As soon as Donald Trump took the oath of office for his second term, Boasberg set out to do everything he possibly could to stop the president from doing what the American people elected him to do on illegal immigration.
 
For the past year, Judge Boasberg has been tying the Trump administration in knots, conducting a baseless investigation into whether administration officials ignored his orders when they sent criminal illegal aliens from Venezuela to a jail in El Salvador. Boasberg has been threatening to hold administration officials in criminal contempt.
 
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia just ordered Judge Boasberg to immediately stop harassing the Trump administration. The majority opinion declared:
 
“The legal error at the heart of these criminal contempt proceedings demonstrates why further investigation by the district court is an abuse of discretion. Criminal contempt is available only for the violation of an order that is clear and specific. (Boasberg’s March 2025 order) did not clearly and specifically bar the government from transferring plaintiffs into Salvadoran custody.”
