An Obama-appointed Judge has thrown out the Department of Justice’s misconduct complaint against U.S. District Justice James Boasberg, the symbol of Progmerican judicial insurrection in the American republic. The justice was accused of trying to inappropriately influence Chief Justice John Roberts, telling him before Trump retook off in 2025 that he would “disregard rulings of federal courts” to “trigger a constitutional crisis.”
Chief Judge of the U.S. Sixth Circuit Jeffrey S. Sutton declared in his ruling, “A recycling of unadorned allegations with no reference to a source does not corroborate them. And a repetition of uncorroborated statements rarely supplies a basis for a valid misconduct complaint.”

The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals has tossed a misconduct complaint against U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, an Obama appointee, after he “attempted to improperly influence Chief Justice Roberts” at a March Judicial Conference in 2025, by claiming that the Trump administration was seeking to “disregard rulings of federal courts,” and trigger “a constitutional crisis.”
The complaint also cites Boasberg’s 2025 ruling that blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to deport Venezuelan nationals to El Salvador’s CECOT prison under the Alien Enemies Act and sought to remove him from J.G.G. v. Trump, an ACLU-backed lawsuit challenging the mass deportations.
Chief Judge of the Sixth Circuit, Jeffrey S. Sutton, originally dismissed the complaint on December 19, though this was only made public this week. He alleged that not only had the federal government failed to provide sufficient evidence of Boasberg’s comments, but that they were completely within bounds for the Judicial Conference of the United States.
