Following Trump’s call to impeach Judge Boasberg, El Salvador’s Bukele remarked that the U.S. faces a “judicial coup.” Trump criticized the judge’s authority in deportation cases, especially regarding Venezuelan nationals. Bukele confirmed the arrival of deported gang members, while Trump questioned the U.S. judicial system’s decisions in handling violent criminals.
Following U.S. President Donald Trump’s call for the impeachment of Judge James Boasberg, President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador remarked on X that “The U.S. is facing a judicial coup.” Bukele’s statement was supported by Elon Musk, who shared the tweet, affirming the sentiment with a simple “1000%.”
In a Truth Social post, Trump denounced Judge Boasberg, describing him as a “Radical Left Lunatic of a Judge” and a “troublemaker and agitator,” noting that Boasberg was appointed by former President Barack Obama. Trump emphasized the need for impeachment, insisting that the United States does not need to harbor violent criminals.
This contention arises amidst recent developments regarding the deportation of Venezuelan nationals linked to the Tren de Aragua gang. Judge Boasberg previously issued an order to temporarily block the removal of certain individuals who do not hold legal status. Notably, flights had already transported numerous individuals before the judge’s intervention, which did not alter those actions.
According to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, the administration has deported 261 illegal aliens to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act, which allows for the removal of specific individuals based on their nationality. Bukele confirmed the arrival of members of Tren de Aragua and indicated that the U.S. has also sent notable gang members to El Salvador.
Trump reiterated his position shortly after midnight, questioning the authority of a judge who he perceives as overstepping and claiming it jeopardizes the nation’s stability. He stated, “If a President doesn’t have the right to throw murderers, and other criminals, out of our Country because a Radical Left Lunatic Judge wants to assume the role of President, then our Country is in very big trouble, and destined to fail!”
In conclusion, President Nayib Bukele has expressed concern over U.S. judicial independence following Trump’s call to impeach Judge Boasberg. This situation highlights ongoing tensions related to the deportation of Venezuelan nationals associated with criminal organizations. Trump’s assertions and Bukele’s comments reflect the growing complexities within U.S. immigration law enforcement and the surrounding political discourse.
