U.S. District Judge James Boasberg got hit with the business end of articles of impeachment on Tuesday stemming from his role in efforts — undertaken by former President Joe Biden’s Justice Department — to investigate and undermine President Donald Trump and his allies.
Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) filed the articles on Tuesday, saying in an X post, “I just filed Articles of Impeachment against radical activist Judge James Boasberg. Judge Boasberg abused his power by weaponizing the judiciary against critics of the Biden Administration. As part of the Arctic Frost Investigation, Judge Boasberg signed off on frivolous nondisclosure orders to conceal the fact that sitting US Senators were being surveilled. Not only was this action egregiously improper; it was a gross violation of the separation of powers. Judge Boasberg is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, is unfit for office, and should be impeached.”

Gill filed the articles after learning that Boasberg was the one who signed off on subpoenas that facilitated the surveillance of multiple Republicans in Congress — and barred anyone from informing those members that they were the subject of subpoenas.
“Chief Judge Boasberg has compromised the impartiality of the judiciary and created a constitutional crisis. He is shamelessly weaponizing his power against his political opponents, including Republican members of Congress who are faithfully serving the American people within their jurisdiction,” Gill told Fox News Digital in a statement.
“Judge Boasberg was an accomplice in the egregious Arctic Frost scandal where he equipped the Biden DOJ to spy on Republican senators. His lack of integrity makes him clearly unfit for the gavel. I am proud to once again introduce articles of impeachment against Judge Boasberg to hold him accountable for his high crimes and misdemeanors,” he added.
The news of Arctic Frost broke a week earlier, when Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed that the FBI — with the approval of then Attorney General Merrick Garland — had requested some 400 subpoenas relating to 200 Republicans, and had subpoenaed bank records from major Republican donors, PACs, and even Mike Lindell’s MyPillow.
