President Donald Trump is calling for the impeachment of a federal judge who issued a temporary injunction prohibiting the administration from deporting individuals alleged to be members of a Venezuelan gang under an obscure 18th century wartime authority that does not require due process.

The president on Tuesday morning took to social media to suggest that Chief U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg, of Washington, D.C., be removed from the bench, referring to the Barack Obama-appointed jurist as a “Radical Left Lunatic of a Judge, a troublemaker and agitator.”

Trump continued, claiming that one of the primary reasons he won reelection was his stance on combating illegal immigration.

“I’m just doing what the VOTERS wanted me to do,” the president wrote. “This judge, like many of the Crooked Judges’ I am forced to appear before, should be IMPEACHED!!! WE DON’T WANT VICIOUS, VIOLENT, AND DEMENTED CRIMINALS, MANY OF THEM DERANGED MURDERERS, IN OUR COUNTRY.”

While Trump did not call out Boasberg by name, the Truth Social post was clearly directed at the judge, who over the weekend issued a 14-day halt on the Trump administration deporting alleged gang members under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.

After the administration appeared to willfully flout the court’s order, Justice Department attorneys argued that two planes carrying more than 100 migrants had already left U.S. airspace and that Boasberg’s oral order to have the planes return to the country did not require compliance because it was not memorialized as a written order.

The judge then called a hearing Monday afternoon where he grilled the DOJ regarding the administration’s conduct.
