Six of the seven active federal judges in Minnesota spoke to The New York Times about the fallout from the Trump administration's surge there. One judge had to go into hiding. Another said it "created a grave threat to the rule of law.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/17/u...

The Chief Justice should not be on, let alone be the titular head of, the Smithsonian Board of Regents. Why? It’s become too political. We’re seeking 2 lawmakers — 1 left, 1 right — who share some animosity toward the Chief, to draft a law that’d remove him. Inquire within.

This nonsense is the reason judges who actually deserve to be impeached — Judge Ross, specifically — are not, because if the GOP advanced a Ross resolution & ignored ones like this, the far-right's definition of what's "impeachable conduct" would fall like a house of cards. A sad state of affairs.
