The Trump administration is calling for the impeachment of the judge who ordered a temporary halt to the deportation of alleged Venezuelan gang members. While the battle seems unlikely to succeed in Trump's favor, House Speaker Mike Johnson could have a few options to deal with the controversial situation and appease the president even if the judge is not removed from his post in the end.

Without explicitly naming James Boasberg, the chief judge of the district court of Washington, D.C., Trump said "this judge, like many of the Crooked Judges' I am forced to appear before, should be IMPEACHED!!!" He also called Boasberg a "Radical Left Lunatic of a judge, a troublemaker and agitator who was sadly appointed by Barack Hussein Obama."
