Jim Jordan Announces Hearings Targeting Judge Over Deportation Rulings

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan announced that his committee will begin hearings next week to investigate U.S. District Judge James Boasberg's rulings that have halted deportation flights under the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act. Jordan criticized Boasberg's decision to turn deportation flights around as 'ridiculous' and politically motivated, asserting that it undermines the constitutional authority of President Trump. The hearings aim to address what Jordan describes as judicial overreach and will focus on the implications of nationwide injunctions issued by federal judges. Additionally, Republican lawmakers have introduced articles of impeachment against Boasberg, arguing that his actions obstruct Trump’s agenda. Jordan emphasized the need for legislative action to limit the power of district judges in issuing broad injunctions. The hearings come amid ongoing debates over immigration policy and executive authority.
