Attorney General Pam Bondi said Thursday that the federal judges assigned the Ruling Signals Chat case “can’t be objective”, adding that “many judges need to be removed.”
Bondy said it was a “wild coincidence against Donald Trump and our administration” and U.S. District Court Judge James Boothberg was appointed to try the Signal case, in which case. Vance Vice President Pete Hegseth and other officials discussed a military strike against Houthi rebels in Yemen. During the chat, a reporter, editor of Jeffrey Goldberg of the Atlantic, was accidentally included.
Boasberg is a judge who ruled against the Trump administration in another incident involving Venezuelan immigration, which is allegedly a member of the Tren de Aragya gang. Boasberg had argued that the plane should be turned back to the deported aircraft to allow the court to consider the matter.
Trump and other administration officials tore up Boasberg about the matter and even called for impeachment. This has caused condemnation by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, who said that when there is a disagreement with the court’s ruling, an appeal should be used instead of improvisation.
Bondy said of Fox News’ Ingrahan Angle: “He shouldn’t be in these cases. He can’t be objective.
Earlier Thursday, President Trump doubled his criticism of Boothberg, calling the judge “shameful.”
“What a shame it is that James Boasberg’s ‘judge’ James Boasberg was just given a fourth case,” the president wrote in a post about truth socialization on Thursday.
Boasberg is now managing four lawsuits involving the second Trump administration after a signal-related lawsuit against major Trump officials.
The federal judge received the case Wednesday after the lawsuit was filed by the oversight group U.S. oversight. In the submission, the group claimed that Trump officials violated their liability under the Federal Records Act because they did not retain signal information related to the recent attack on Houthi rebels in Yemen.
“You know, these judges have made personal attacks on this in many cabinet secretaries. These secretary and judges across the country – again, they think they have authority, but it will be short-lived because these cases will arrive at the Supreme Court very quickly.”
“We are doing everything we can,” she added.
