WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge accused the Justice Department on Wednesday of attacking her character in an effort to undermine the integrity of the judicial system, forcefully pushing back against the Trump administration's criticism of the courts for rulings that blocked parts of the president's agenda.
U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell’s comments came in an order denying the Justice Department’s bid to remove her from a case over an executive order punishing a prominent law firm. The Trump administration had asked for the case to be moved to another judge in Washington’s federal court, accusing Howell of demonstrating “a pattern of hostility” toward the Republican president.
"When the U.S. Department of Justice engages in this rhetorical strategy of ad hominem attack, the stakes become much larger than only the reputation of the targeted federal judge," wrote Howell, who was appointed to the federal bench by Democratic President Barack Obama.
“This strategy is designed to impugn the integrity of the federal judicial system and blame any loss on the decision-maker rather than fallacies in the substantive legal arguments presented.”

Jeeze Beryl, you’re showing exactly the opposite of what a decent honorable judge should be. The exact polar opposite.
These judicial tyrants are so used to having their way, that they can’t handle any pushback. What do you have when an activist judge has been smacked down? Nothing more than a spoiled toddler having a temper tantrum.
Great comparison.
Might I add, the judge has not character.
BTTT
frank ballenger suggested: the judicial system has no integrity left to impugn.
They grabbed onto the left’s Lawfare against Trump with nary a nod to his human rights:
<><>they made the appeals process impossible for Trump
<><>Trump was railroaded,
<><>faced w/ selling every asset he had to obtain a modicum of justice,
<><>local biased judges spewed their hatred
<><>they uttered hate-filled rulings, precedents the country must follow.
<><>they forced candidate Trump to sit in a court room day after day,
<><>they encumbered Trump’s campaigning,
<><>they slandered Trump’s name and reputation day after day.
<><>they went after Trump supporters w/ a vengeance.
Narcissist taking it personally.
Truth is, the court activist rulings always serve to disband the American people or businesses, never foreign terror organizations or run amok federal bureaucracies. The only things courts have done against these is a modicum of holding them back now and then.
Dont believe for one second the supreme court is somehow stacked in our favor. All these judges have the statist “the state is never wrong and sacred” capo bureaucrat mindset.
“Might I add, the judge has not character.”
Indeed.
Is it possible to impugn something that is not there?
“Dont believe for one second the supreme court is somehow stacked in our favor”
Traitor Roberts and his hand-maiden like Amy Conehead Barrett turn out to be working Marxist/socialist, anti-MAGA advocates. Both have severe cases of Long TDS.
Kav is questionable, but somewhat independent.
Goresuch generally gets it right with some significant mistakes.
So from L to R it is a 3-2-1-1-2 court.
Bad/Sad, but it could be much worse.
“U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell’s comments came in an order denying the Justice Department’s bid to remove her from a case “
How does she get to deny the request? It seems like it should to a court above her head.
ps
Recall that Howell handed out cruel and unusual punishments to J6 protesters.
Beryl Howell is dirty.

Respect for the judiciary demands complaint when judges do wrong.
you go from posts deleting the recipients name out of the post to adding ping lists... you people are strange.
U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell has the character
of a blackrobed traitor, practicing her treason daily.
You’re doing a good enough job of impugning the integrity of the judicial system all on your own judge. You don’t need any help in that.
“This strategy is designed to impugn the integrity of the federal judicial system....”
If the shoe fits...
No, their bias impugns their integrity.
But the judges can impunity Trumps charachter all day long and that’s ok?
Time to hand the judges a smack down
Character, Beryl? WHAT character?
