Capt. Ed at Hat Hair reports 'Intrusive': DC Appeals Court Slaps Down President Boasberg – Again "For at least the third time, the circuit court has called an end to Boasberg's attempts to run the ICE and Border Patrol. Rao flat-out ruled that Boasberg has committed an ongoing "abuse of discretion" with his threats of criminal contempt citations:... "The widening gyre of the district court’s investigation again calls for the extraordinary remedy of mandamus to halt the judicial “impairment of another branch in the performance of its constitutional duties.” Cheney v. U.S. Dist. Ct. for D.C., 542 U.S. 367, 390 (2004) (cleaned up). The district court proposes to probe high-level Executive Branch deliberations about matters of national security and diplomacy. These proceedings are a clear abuse of discretion, as the district court’s order said nothing about transferring custody of the plaintiffs and therefore lacks the clarity to support criminal contempt based on the transfer of custody. Moreover, the government has already provided the name of the responsible official, so further judicial investigation is unnecessary and therefore improper. In these circumstances, mandamus is appropriate to prevent the district court from assuming an antagonistic jurisdiction that encroaches on the autonomy of the Executive Branch."" From Althouse, "These proceedings improperly threaten an open-ended, freewheeling inquiry into executive branch decision-making on matters of national security..." ""... that implicate ongoing military and diplomatic initiatives. This judicial intrusion into the autonomy of a coequal department cannot be remedied by a later appeal from a contempt conviction." Wrote Judge Neomi Rao, for the majority, quoted in "Appeals Court Ends Contempt Inquiry Into Deportation Flights/A federal judge’s nearly yearlong effort to investigate whether the Trump administration had violated his order had become a point of contention in the president’s battles with the courts" (NYT): Here's the opinion, from the District of Columbia court. The judge below was James E. Boasberg." Ace, DC Court of Appeals Bodies, Beats Down Obama Judge Boasberg for His Extrajudicial Unending "Investigation" Into Trump for Ignoring His Poorly-Worded and Also Illegal Order. Kaelen Deese at WaEx, Appeals court shuts down Boasberg contempt inquiry into Trump administration over El Salvador deportations. At this point, Boasberg needs to be impeached for waging an extrajudicial war on the executive branch. I know the Senate would never never convict, but the trial would be illuminating.
Dave Strom at Hat Hair says You May Not Have Noticed, But Tulsi Is Doing a Great Job. She doesn't agree with President Trump on a lot, but they both know the intelligence services tried to do them both in, at least politically. She is well motivated to get to the bottom, and clean out some rot on the way down. Hans Mahncke @HansMahncke, "Out of everything we now know about the Ukraine impeachment episode, the key point is that Ciaramella was one of the central operatives in the events leading up to Joe Biden getting the Ukrainian prosecutor fired. That made him the perfect vehicle for advancing the “whistleblower” complaint, precisely because he himself was implicated in the underlying events. In effect, Ciaramella got to cover his own tracks, while his allies and higher ups, including Adam Schiff, got their impeachment. ..." Quote Andrii Telizhenko @TelizhenkoAndy, "Ciaramella -not a whistleblower he is part of the Obama-Biden-Brennan plot to undermine @POTUS and protect Bidens in Ukraine. In my meeting with Ciaramella in @WhiteHouse Jan 2016 he and NSC were pushing to go after and remove Prosecutor General Shokin for investigating Burisma." At Ace's Quick Hits, "Paul Sperry @paulsperry "BREAKING: IC IG Michael Atkinson, an Obama holdover and former aide to Russiagate operative Mary McCord, "weaponized the whistleblower process" against Trump by 1) failing to conduct basic due diligence and 2) willfully exceeding his statutory jurisdiction by altering the whistleblower form to no longer require firsthand knowledge as a prerequisite for reporting complaints in order to facilitate fake impeachment "whistleblower" Eric Ciaramella's 2019 hearsay complaint against Trump, an ODNI investigation has found based on hundreds of newly declassified docs." At PJM Stephen Kruiser is Just Wondering How Long Adam Schiff Gets to Lie About, Well, Everything. It's pretty much a perk of being in Congress. And Cathy Salgado cites the Dersh: Trump Should Move to Expunge 2019 Impeachment.
Ace is thrilled to report Bill Cosby SuperFan Eric Swalwell's Resignation Is Official, Effective Immediately "Would you like some Jello Puddin' with your rufies?" "Jennifer Van Laar reports that the earliest the election can be held is 126 days after the slippery-assed governor declares a vacancy." At News Wax, 5th Woman Alleges Sexual Misconduct by Rep. Swalwell. John Sexton at Hat Hair, Another Woman Accuses Swalwell of Raping and Choking Her. Ace again, Ana Paulina Luna: It's Going to Get Worse for Eric Rapewell, and He Might Wind Up in Prison PLUS: Another Drugging and Rape Allegation. "We'll see." At Page 6, Bleary-eyed Eric Swalwell wears a robe, parties with ‘yacht girls’ during ‘hush-hush’ St. Tropez blowout, wild video shows. "Sources tell us that in early September 2022, two of Swalwell’s pals jetted by private plane from Las Vegas to the French Riviera town where they chartered the 200-foot Arience yacht and called Swalwell to come join them." Atop Da Hill a House Republican: ‘Rapists should be hung, period’. Shipwreckedcrew, Eric Swalwell Wanted To Be President And Nancy Pelosi Fed His Delusion To Make Use Of Him In Pursuit Of Her Ends. "A no-talent local pol from a one-party area of a one-party state who a national political power player used to do her dirty work -- the ego and hubris that resulted is remarkable." Matt Margolis at PJM has hopes; Will the Swalwell Scandal Take Down a Democrat U.S. Senator, Too? Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok, "Wild that banging a Chinese spy wasn’t what got Swalwell out of Congress, rather it was the democrat ruling class machine deciding he isn’t useful to them anymore." Sister Toldja at RedState, Mike Johnson Sends Signal That Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick's Time in Congress Is Just About Up.
John Sexton asks Why Does the Media Keep Missing These Huge, Career-Ending Stories? They didn't miss it, they ignored it, until it became convenient for the Democrats. Tom Knighton at TAW, They knew and did nothing and at TownHall, The Media Patting Its Own Back Begins Anew. "Brian Stelter says that Swalwell's downfall was a testament to investigative journalism, for example, all while ignoring his colleagues who are defending their refusal to write about it as "not my beat," despite claiming to have known for years." Alex Berenson at Unreported Truths claims It is impossible to be too cynical (about the Democratic-legacy media axis) "Eric Swalwell has been (at best) an adulterer and sexual predator throughout his career in Congress. The Democratic Party didn't care, until he became a problem in the California governor's race." Martin Shkreli @MartinShkreli, "to all house dems, this can happen to you easily. imma tell you one time: don't fuck with me. @RoKhanna you fucked with me. that's against the aforementioned rules. so you next. everyone has a secret, a vice, a mistake. but not everyone has a determined enemy. tread carefully."
Freddie deBoer asks What is Left of "Believe Women"? "from Rolling Stone's Jackie to Sam Altman's sister, the rules shift and definitions strain." The rules are whatever it takes to hurt Republicans and serve Democrats. At Althouse, "The problem is less a 'boys will be boys' tolerance than a sense of resignation among politicians, staff and other members of official Washington that powerful, ambitious men are built differently." "Writes Michelle Cottle, in "How Many People Heard About Swalwell and Did Nothing?" (NYT)."
From the Free Bacon, Gavin Newsom Said He Had a 'Moral Duty' To Release His Tax Returns Every Year He Served in Office. He Hasn't Since 2022. "Newsom has kept his returns private as his wife rakes in hundreds of thousands of dollars from her charity, which is funded by corporations that do business with Newsom's California." Doreen Linder @DorLinder, "A California news team finds a left-wing group, “Build a Better California,” paying homeless people $5 a signature to sign petitions for ballot measures using other people’s names. This transpired in the Tenderloin area of San Francisco. The man became violent when the reporter asked about the petitions on the hood of his car..." Hat Hair's Beege Welborn observes The Quiet Carnage of California's Minimum Wage Hikes Obsession Continues. The true minimum wage is zero.

Joe Chalfant at TownHall, Democrats Just Got One Step Closer to Seizing Presidential Elections. Bob Hoge at RedState thinks Tom Steyer's Latest Incendiary ICE Proposal and Call to Arms Is So Outlandish, Even Newsom Might Blush. I don't think Newsom can blush. PJM's Bob Spencer sees Comrade Mamdani Gets to Work on His Cult of Personality. Matt Vespa at TownHall hears Graham Platner Has a New Explanation for His Nazi Tattoo. It's a Doozy.
