White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took a page from her boss President Donald Trumpโs playbook and attacked a federal judge who ruled against him.
She branded the judge an โactivistโ and even went after his wife over her political donations.
Leavittโs attack came after Trump himself called Judge James Boasberg a โradical left lunaticโ and talked up trying to impeach him after he issued a temporary order blocking deportation flights.
The judge in this case is essentially trying to say the President doesnโt have the executive authority to deport foreign terrorists from our American soil. That is an egregious abuse of the bench,โ Leavitt said at the White House.
โThis judge cannot, does not, have that authority. It is the opinion of this White House and of this administration. And thatโs why weโre fighting this in court. And itโs very, very clear that this is an activist judge who is trying to usurp this presidentโs authority,โ Leavitt said.
She added: โUnder the Alien Enemies Act the president has the power, and thatโs why the the deportation campaign will will continue. And this judge, Judge Boasberg, is a Democrat activist. He was appointed by Barack Obama.โ
