Washington – The growing conflict between President Trump and the federal courts escalated on Tuesday, when the highest judge John G. Roberts Jr. thought about the president's call to complain about a judge for the decision against him.
Roberts made a rare explanation a few hours later Trump posted on social media That a “radical left -wing madness of a judge, a troublemaker and an agitator … should be charged !!!”
He referred to the US district judge James Boasberg in Washington. On Saturday evening, Boasberg ordered the deportation of several hundred alleged members of the Venezuelan criminal police.
They were flown from Texas to capture in a prison in El Salvador. The aircraft started during the hearing and arrangement of the judge was largely ignored. However, the law that approved mass deportation remained in doubt.
While migrants can be deported if they prove themselves as a criminal register, Trump claimed that under his war authority as commander -in -chief, they could be deported massively. He described illegal immigration as the “invasion” of the United States.
This was regarded by right -wing experts as a dubious lawsuit and a contestation in front of the Supreme Court.
The president and his lawyers refer to the Alien Enemies Act from 1798, which, in the event of a “declared war” or an invasion “by a foreign nation or government”, authorized the president of removing those who were “subjects of the enemy nation”.
Boasberg, a representative of President Obama, is known for his mild way and questioned whether this law approved the postponement of men without hearing. However, his command of stopping the flights did not prevent the more than 200 men shipped to El Salvador.
When the supreme judge was asked about a comment on Boasberg's elevation, he said:
Roberts is conservative and is likely for Trump for many, but not all of his claims of the extended executive power. However, it also protects the independent power of the federal judges to decide on the proper interpretation of the Federal Law and the constitution.
In Trump's first term, he spoke out when the president criticized “an Obama judge” who had decided against him.

“We have no Obama judge or Trump judge, Bush judge or Clinton judge. What we have is an extraordinary group of committed judges who do their best to do the same right to those who appear before them,” said Roberts 2018.
Trump's attacks on the judges will probably no longer gain support from the Supreme Court.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett was two weeks ago Goal of devastating attacks From some conservatives after Roberts had joined in a 5: 4 order, the administration was noticed.
Many of Trump's executive regulations will probably come to the Supreme Court in the coming months, and the president will need the votes of Roberts and Barrett to assert themselves.
The legal comments also questioned the claims for the collection of office.
“I would be open to complaining to judges for continuing bad or wild decisions. Nothing is removed here,” said Ed Whelan, a conservative and former employee for justice Antonin Scalia. “At best, threats of the elevation are for performative nonsense. Even worse, they can exercise violent threats to judges and family members.”
Trump's call for the survey “is for the course par. He insulted and threatens judges and others who dare to question the legality of these measures,” said Michael Gerhardt, legal professor at the University of North Carolina. “It is the duty of a judge to ensure compliance with the rule of law, no matter how powerful those who are charged with violation of the law.”
A president and the lawyers of his government have nothing new that is dissatisfied with court decisions, Jonathan H. Adler, a legal professor at Case Western in Cleveland. “It is inevitable that the judges occasionally spend decisions that disappoint or annoy political figures. We have seen many such examples in the bidges administration. A lonely wrong decision, even on a question of national importance, was never understood to fulfill the threshold for the charges of a federal judge.”
On Monday, Boasberg stopped neglecting and criticized the Trump administration lawyers because he did not intend to stop the flights to El Salvador. They found that they were oral commands, no written.
“This is a damn again, I think,” the judge replied.
But his criticism seems to have triggered Trump's demand for his office.
Rep. Brandon Gill, a Republican in Texas, announced on Tuesday that he had it introduced officials “Against the radical activist, James Boasberg. He is guilty of high crimes and offenses and should be removed from office.”
He was quickly accompanied by several others.
Elon Musk, who hears the social media platform X and is a consultant of the Trump White House, published Gill's message to his 200 million followers.
