Trump Accuses Judge Boasberg of Conflict Amid Deportation Dispute

Former federal judge J. Michael Luttig accused President Trump of 'declaring war' on the federal judiciary, particularly criticizing Trump's attacks on Judge James Boasberg, who temporarily blocked the deportation of foreign gang members under the Alien Enemies Act. Trump responded by calling Boasberg a 'troublemaker' and alleging a 'conflict of interest' based on a photo of Boasberg with former Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff, a claim deemed weak by critics. Trump's comments have drawn backlash from legal experts and prompted a rebuke from Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, reminding Trump that impeachment is not a suitable response to judicial disagreements. Attorney General Pam Bondi defended the administration's actions and suggested the Supreme Court may need to intervene. The situation highlights escalating tensions between the Trump administration and the judiciary, raising concerns about potential constitutional crises. Luttig warned that Trump's actions could plunge the nation deeper into legal chaos.
