Brandon Gill hints at impeachment articles for Judge Boasberg
Cruz, for his part, pointed to Boasberg's sign-off of an effort to spy on Republican senators.
Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, is drafting articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who has been at the center of the Trump administration's efforts to invoke the Alien Enemies Act against Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
"Working on it," Gill wrote in response to Sen. Ted Cruz's, R-Texas, calls for the House to impeach Boasberg.
Cruz, for his part, pointed to Boasberg's sign-off of an effort to spy on Republican senators.
"That is a dereliction of duty and a violation of the judicial oath," Cruz insisted. I am, right now, calling on the House of Representatives to impeach Judge Boasberg. Mark my words: there will be accountability for these partisan zealots who sought to corrupt the DOJ and judiciary to attack their enemies."
Specifically, Cruz stated that Boasberg issued an order that he not be informed of the probe of his phone records.
Gill has not commented on the potential nature of the articles as of press time.
