House hearing to look at ‘left-wing activist judges’: Jim Jordan – Washington Examiner


House federal judges hearing to look at ‘left-wing activist judges’: Jim Jordan

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) advised “left-wing activist judges” that the House Judiciary Committee will be looking into them.

Over a week has passed since Judge James Boasberg of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued a ruling prohibiting deportation flights while he oversees a case involving five immigrants with active deportation orders. The Trump administration went through with the deportations as the planes were already airborne when Boasberg’s ruling came out but have paused ever since.

“We’ll look at the appropriations process. I think it’s the main power we have in the legislative branch to look over the other branches of government. We’ll look at that. Then, finally, we’re gonna do oversight, which is one of our other responsibilities, and we’ll start that with the hearing next week with some experts who will come in and talk about this issue and what is disproportionally happened with these left-wing activist judges going after President Trump,” Jordan said on Fox News’s Life, Liberty, and Levin Saturday.

The Ohio representative suggested the committee’s efforts were supported by some “justices on the Supreme Court who leaned to the left.” His reference was to the remarks made by Justice Elena Kagan in 2022 at a Northwestern University event.

“It just can’t be right that one district judge can stop a nationwide policy in its tracks and leave it stopped for the years that it takes to go through the normal process,” Kagan said at the time.

Boasberg’s injunction was initially ruled as a two-week pause on deportations, which would have ended on Apr. 5.
