Rep. Gill, Musk Push to Impeach Judge Boasberg

The Trump administration's deportation of over 200 alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua to El Salvador, despite a federal judge's order temporarily blocking such actions, has raised significant legal and human rights concerns. The deportations were justified by invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a rarely used wartime law, citing the gang's involvement in criminal activities. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg issued a temporary restraining order, but the administration claimed the flights were already in transit and did not comply, leading to further legal challenges. President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador confirmed the arrival of the deported individuals and expressed support for the action. Meanwhile, Rep. Brandon Gill and Elon Musk have backed an impeachment effort against Judge Boasberg for his ruling. The Trump administration has appealed the judge’s decision, asserting the deportations were necessary for national security.
