WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge must end his “intrusive” contempt investigation of the Trump administration for failing to comply with an order turn around planes carrying Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador last year, a divided appeals court panel ruled Tuesday.
Chief Judge James Boasberg abused his discretion in forging ahead with criminal contempt proceedings over the March 2025 deportation flights, according to the majority opinion by a three-judge panel from U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
President Donald Trump’s administration has a “clear and indisputable” right to the termination of the contempt proceedings, Circuit Judge Neomi Rao wrote in the court’s majority opinion.

Boasberg will overrule the Appeals court and now find them in contempt and Roberts will continue to do nothing as the judiciary is made into a joke by petty, minor black robe tyrants.
Hilarious
I was just about to write just that
The insanity of the SOB is now apparent to everyone
We’re still deporting people?
What is this the 3rd or 4th time Boasberg has been slapped down by the appellate court?
A different take—the bell begind to toll for Boasberg
We’re still deporting people?
Actually we are still deporting people. There are many anti-Trumpers and “influencers” trying to convince people that illegal aliens aren’t being deported. However, ICE is taking people into custody everyday and processing them for deportation. Appeals courts are ruling for the administration time after time which is actually helping to speed up the process.
Can a judge be in contempt of court?
the executive branch can never be held in contempt by ANY court, because the president can simply pardon any executive branch official at any point.
What is this the 3rd or 4th time Boasberg has been slapped down by the appellate court?
I can’t remember but the rulings against him have certainly been stacking up.
If anyone is interested in the latest deportation numbers, here is a report from The Deportation Data Project.

Praying that what you say is true. Sure would love to see ICE in my part of Norhtern CA.
Anybody that thinks that creep is gonna go away and crawl back under a slimy rock better think again.
Im guessing he’s directly connected to soros.
The law doesn’t apply to people of Boasberg’s ilk.
You must understand - Boasberg went to Yale and he was inducted into Skull & Bones with GW Bush so he thinks he can lord it over the commoners like us, just like Bush did.
start calling the hotline!
Here is the court’s opinion: https://media.cadc.uscourts.gov/opinions/docs/2026/04/25-5452-2168528.pdf
Complete slapdown.
“Actually we are still deporting people.”
Thanks for pointing it out. While the democrats blow their load, millions of dollars of legal fees, and all their political capital keeping two degenerates (Wife beating gangster Kilmer Abrego. Jew hating America hating terrorist supporting, Mahmoud Kahlil) there are not many resources they have left to stop all the other illegals that are being captured and deported.
well, the whole co-equal branches sort of makes one think that the jucidical branch ruling the executive branch in contempt is sort of, I dunno, not co-equal anymore.
Bonusburger still isn’t in prison? What are we waiting for? The boy is a Rogue Communist “judgette”.
