Highlights
  • The DC Circuit ruled Boasberg’s contempt crusade against Trump officials is an improper investigation, signaling limits on pursuing contempt in deportation cases.
  • The majority on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals found Boasberg’s efforts to bring contempt charges were a clear abuse of discretion, intrusive and a legal dead end.
  • Sen. Eric Schmitt urged House Republicans to impeach District Judge Boasberg after a court order to end the contempt probe tied to the March 2025 deportations.
