Justice Department files misconduct complaint against Judge Boasberg: Bondi

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday announced that the Justice Department (DOJ) has filed a misconduct complaint against U.S. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg over comments he's made about the Trump administration.

The judge has overseen multiple Trump administration cases, including the high-profile deportation flights case, where the Trump administration deported suspected members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang to El Salvador. He also oversaw the administration's Signal chat case in March. 

Bondi did not state what comments the complaint was directly related to, but it accuses Boasberg of making "improper public comments" about President Donald Trump and his administration. 

"Today at my direction, the [DOJ]  filed a misconduct complaint against U.S. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg for making improper public comments about President Trump and his Administration," Bondi posted on X. "These comments have undermined the integrity of the judiciary, and we will not stand for that."

The filing marks the second time the DOJ has made a complaint against a federal judge this year. The department also filed a misconduct complaint against U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes in February, Fox News reported.
