He is shamelessly weaponizing his power against his political opponents, including Republican members of Congress who are faithfully serving the American people within their jurisdiction,\u201d Rep. Gill told\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-foe-boasberg-hit-articles-impeachment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox News Digital<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJudge Boasberg was an accomplice in the egregious Arctic Frost scandal where he equipped the Biden DOJ to spy on Republican senators. His lack of integrity makes him clearly unfit for the gavel. I am proud to once again introduce articles of impeachment against Judge Boasberg to hold him accountable for his high crimes and misdemeanors,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The articles of impeachment charge Boasberg with one count of abuse of power, according to text obtained by Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIgnoring his responsibility to wield the power of his office in a constitutional manner, Chief Judge Boasberg granted Special Counsel John L. Smith authorization to issue frivolous nondisclosure orders in furtherance of the Federal Bureau of Investigation project codenamed ARCTIC FROST,\u201d the text read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese nondisclosure orders covered Members of Congress who were acting in accord with their legislative duties and privileges guaranteed by Article 1, Section 6, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Article I, Section 6, Clause 1 of the Constitution couldn\u2019t be clearer \u2014 members of Congress have the absolute right to speak, debate, and legislate without interference or intimidation from outside forces. It\u2019s one of the bedrock protections against tyranny \u2014 and exactly what Operation Arctic Frost trampled over.<\/p>\n<p>The trove of Arctic Frost documents released last month by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) exposed just how far the Biden DOJ and Judge James Boasberg were willing to go. They revealed subpoenas for the phone records of 10 U.S. senators and one House lawmaker \u2014 along with gag orders to Verizon and AT&amp;T instructing them not to alert the targets. Verizon quietly complied; AT&amp;T refused.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s still unclear is what, if any, documentation Boasberg reviewed before greenlighting this outrageous violation of constitutional privilege.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican Congressman Brandon Gill of Texas has officially dropped the hammer \u2014 filing articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge James Boasberg for his central role in the Biden administration\u2019s &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":22293,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22292","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22292","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=22292"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22292\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22294,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22292\/revisions\/22294"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/22293"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=22292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=22292"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cndailynews.store\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=22292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
