While #PamBondi has yet to actually specify what “improper public comments” #Boasberg made to elicit such an attack, both her chief of staff & the right-wing #FederalistSociety have reported that this huge, inappropriate mistake Boasberg made was simply expressing his (valid!) concern that the #Trump admin was liable to “disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a #ConstitutionalCrisis,” while at a judicial conference.

#PamBondi Takes Revenge on Judge #Trump Absolutely Hates
The #DOJ is targeting Judge #Boasberg.
Trump’s Justice Department is moving to retaliate against one of the federal #judges who stood up to Trump’s extrajudicial [illegal] #deportations.

More increases in #immigration #enforcement #funding:
- $14.4B for #ICE Transportation & Removal (current budget $721M)
$1.25B for immigration courts
$1.32B for ICE prosecutors
+ $600M for the prosecutions$787M for state/local assistance
+$650M specifically for memos of agreement between ICE & state/local law enforcement agencies allowing those agencies to perform immigration enforcement duties, including detention & removal.#law #ConstitutionalCrisis #LegislativeBranch #JudicialBranch

Other new #immigration “fees”:
- $250 bond for ALL nonimmigrant #visa applicants
- $550 for “parole” work permits
- $1,500 fee for applying to adjust status to get a #GreenCard before a judge.
The bill would also dramatically increase immigration #enforcement #funding.
$45B for #ICE #detention, assuming $4.5B/year, that would be nearly a 250% annual increase to the current $3.4 detention budget.

The prohibitive fees continue:
2 "fees" are actually penalties:
- $5,000 "fee" for being ordered deported for missing a court hearing.
- $5,000 "fee" for being an inadmissible *alien* apprehended between ports of entry.
This new fee is grotesque:
- $500 for any Special Immigrant Juvenile [#SIJ] Status application — these are abused, abandoned or neglected kids, ya think they have $500?

More prohibitive #immigration“fees” — these are just for trying to defend your status in #court:
- $100 fee for ANY continuance (except in "exceptional” circumstances)
- $1,050 fee for ANY waiver application
- $900 fee for all appeals except bond (currently $100)
- $1,500 fee for non-Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) cancellation (currently $100)

Crazy
At the end of the #House #Judiciary reconciliation bill, there are 2 major restrictions on the judiciary & #litigation:
First, as noted above, it bans judges from enforcing #contempt unless there was an FRCP 65(c) bond (rare in #CivilRights suits). Obviously aimed to stop Judges like #Boasberg & #Xinis, among others.
Second, they would bar money damages in settlements. [see pic]

It also declares—not coincidentally as #Trump is facing dozens of #TROs & injunctions:
"No #court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a #contempt citation for failure to comply with an #injunction or #TemporaryRestrainingOrder”

The #JimJordan led #House #Judiciary Cmt has now released their reconciliation bill.
In addition to #immigration measures, it transfers ALL #FTC #antitrust actions to the US #AttorneyGeneral [currently #PamBondi], among other antitrust provisions.

During ordinary times, this accommodation would reflect an appropriate respect for the constitutional #SeparationOfPowers. In dealing with this Administration, with its maximalist conception of executive authority & its contemptuous attitude toward the #judiciary, the Justices are being played for fools.

That, the govt argued, would intrude on the President’s sole power to conduct foreign relations. So the govt’s responsibility here is to, what, maybe issue #AbregoGarcia a Global Entry card to cut the #immigration line if he somehow turns up at a #US airport? This defiant position cannot stand—not if the rule of #law is to survive.

@GottaLaff
There's way to fix the #SCotUS w/o creating a #ConstitutionalCrisis.
