House GOP prepares to impeach Fed Judges blocking Trump, DOGE policies
Federal judges have blocked Trump’s executive order that limit transgender care for minors, and his administration’s plan to reduce USAID by placing 2,200 employees on administrative leave, among others.
By
Several House Republicans are preparing articles of impeachment against the federal judges who are blocking some of President Donald Trump’s and Elon Musk’s key policies.
Federal judges have blocked Trump’s executive order that limits transgender care for minors, and his administration’s plan to reduce the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) by placing 2,200 employees on administrative leave.
Another federal judge blocked Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing the Treasury Department payment records.
Arizona GOP Rep. Eli Crane is preparing articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer, who temporarily blocked DOGE from accessing the Treasury department, according to The Hill.
“Our case for impeaching Judge Engelmayer is basically that he’s an activist judge trying to stop the Trump administration from executing their, you know, Article 2 powers to make sure that the laws are faithfully executed,” Crane told former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz on his One America News Network show.
Georgia Rep. Andrew Clyde on Wednesday announced that he is preparing an article of impeachment against Rhode Island District Judge John McConnell Jr. for pausing the Trump administration’s efforts to freeze federal funding.
“I’m drafting articles of impeachment for U.S. District Judge John McConnell Jr.,” he shared on X. ” He’s a partisan activist weaponizing our judicial system to stop President Trump’s funding freeze on woke and wasteful government spending. We must end this abusive overreach.”
Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is chair of the House Oversight Delivering on Government Efficiency Subcommittee, did not specifically state that she was preparing articles of impeachment, but supported Crane’s plan by vowing to hold Engelmayer accountable during a subcommittee hearing.
Although the House has the power to introduce articles of impeachment against judges, presidents, and other elected officials, it cannot remove them. The Senate votes to remove a judge, and would need two-thirds of the chamber’s votes to do so. Republicans only hold 53 seats in the upper chamber.
