This Judge is also responsible for approving the FISA requests for the illegal investigation into Trump under Arctic Frost. He signed subpoenas and nondisclosure orders used to obtain phone records for nutjob Jack Smith, the Special Prosecutor.
Our Judicial system needs an overhaul because Judges have lost their way and rule by ideology rather than our Constitutional laws. SCOTUS sits silent through all these bad decisions when Judge Roberts should be speaking up. But this is our system, and so far, I don’t know of anything better. All IMO.
“In a 2-1 ruling on Tuesday, the D.C. Circuit Court pointed out that the name had already been given to Boasberg — then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem — and that his initial written order regarding keeping the Venezuelan men in U.S. custody lacked clarity.
“These proceedings improperly threaten an open-ended, freewheeling inquiry into Executive Branch decisionmaking on matters of national security that implicate ongoing military and diplomatic initiatives,” Judge Neomi Rao, a Trump appointee, wrote for the majority.
“These proceedings are a clear abuse of discretion, as the district court’s order said nothing about transferring custody of the plaintiffs and therefore lacks the clarity to support criminal contempt based on the transfer of custody. Moreover, the government has already provided the name of the responsible official, so further judicial investigation is unnecessary and therefore improper.”
In a concurring opinion, Judge Justin Walker, also a Trump appointee, took a swipe at the media coverage of the case, which communicated that Trump officials refused to comply with the judge’s supposed “turn the planes around” oral directive before he issued a written order.
“Does that mean the Government violated the district court’s oral order? No. Contrary to the predictably inaccurate commentary that plagues our better-first-than-accurate media era, the district court did not order the Government to turn the planes around, and today’s dissent does not argue otherwise,” Walker wrote.”
