Description

U.S. Representatives Andy Ogles (R-TN-05), Scott DesJarlais (R-TN-04), and Tim Burchett (R-TN-02) will support an effort to impeach District Court Judge James Boasberg, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, who approved the subpoenas requested by former special counsel Jack Smith for phone records of prominent Republicans, the congressmen or their spokesmen told The Tennessee Star on Friday. 

The prospect of impeaching Boasberg was first broached earlier this year, after the judge controversially threatened to hold the Trump administration in contempt after issuing a verbal order blocking the government from deporting Tren de Aragua (TdA) terrorists to El Salvador after the planes had already left the United States, which prompted U.S. Representative Brandon Gill (R-TX-26) to file articles of impeachment.
