House Republicans Move To Impeach Judges Who Rule Against Trump

The court losses for Donald Trump’s administration are piling up so quickly that Republicans in the House of Representatives are left with only one option: Get these judges off the bench immediately. In order to do that, multiple far-right Republicans are now proposing that these judges be impeached for the crime of upholding the Constitution, something that isn’t even possible. But this is the world we live in now, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump and his entire administration continue to get humiliated every time they have to walk into a courtroom to defend one of his ridiculous executive orders. And they're getting kind of tired of it. I mean, Elon Musk has already called for these judges to be impeached. We've had JD Vance out there telling us that these judges are not following the law when the judges are in fact following the law. And, uh, actually on Tuesday of this week, Donald Trump's administration lost three cases in front of three separate judges on three separate issues in 90 minutes. Three cases in 90 minutes, they lost on preliminary rulings. Um, so things are going very badly, but don't fear Republicans because the Republicans in the House of Representatives have a plan to stop these evil judges from upholding the US Constitution. And their plan is to just impeach 'em all right?

Like, let's just get all these judges off the bench and then Donald Trump gets to replace him with loyalists. You know, a bunch of Eileen Cannons on every court in this country, and I'm not making that up. Three different Republicans in the House of Representatives have now introduced articles of impeachment against three different federal judges, all of whom have ruled against Donald Trump so far. One of the judges, this is the one that the Republican representative, Andy Ogles, is trying to impeach. Um, Ogles is lying about the judge's ruling. Now, the judge had ordered, uh, and it was, uh, US District Judge John Bates Bates had ordered, the federal government took down a bunch of websites, you know, that related to healthcare, but they had some of those band words in there, like women and diversity. So the judge said, Hey, you have to put these websites back up because these are actually vital resources for healthcare providers across the country, specifically with regards to women's health and HIV prevention.

Those are the two things the judge said, like those two, you know, areas, you gotta put those websites back up as this court case proceeds, Ogles claims that the judge said, no, you have to put up all the websites about, uh, performing sex changes on children, which didn't happen. Like, that's not even anywhere in the preliminary ruling, but Ogles claims it was and says, well, I'm gonna impeach you for that. But even if it were in the ruling, that's still not an impeachable offense. Like you can't, like that's not a high crime, a misdemeanor judicial misconduct, it's nothing. Then of course you have US District Chief Judge John McConnell, and you have US representative Andrew, Andrew Clyde, who is threatening to file articles of impeachment, um, because he told the Trump administration, you're violating the order I have

Of you to not freeze federal spending and grants. Then you have US District Judge Paul Meyer, who actually two different Republicans are trying to impeach him. Uh, representative Derek Van Orden and Representative Eli Crane. So that's what's happening. The, these Republicans don't like that. Donald Trump keeps losing 'cause he keeps writing incoherent executive orders that are blatantly unconstitutional. So we're just gonna impeach the judges for upholding the constitution. Here's where it gets even funnier. For those who understand math. You don't have the votes to quote Hamilton.
