President Trump's impeachment attack on Judge Boasberg undermines Trump's political interests, the Constitution, and the healthy rule of law.

Boasberg is also well-known among Trump allies for his role as a judge on the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court during the period when the FBI was investigating whether Trump's successful 2016 campaign had colluded with Russia to tip the outcome of the election.

A federal judge still has questions about the Trump administration’s compliance with his orders, and the administration is still trying not to answer them.
