(DCNF)—Judge James Boasberg, an Obama appointee who serves as chief judge of the D.C. District Court, is facing an ethics complaint for “political bias” against President Donald Trump and his administration.
Boasberg approved nondisclosure orders in 2023 that kept nearly a dozen Republican members of Congress from knowing their cell phone records had been secretly obtained by the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ), documents released by Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley recently revealed.
“Judge Boasberg enabled certain facets of what may be one of the biggest scandals in the history of the country,” the ethics complaint filed by the Center to Advance Security in America (CASA) and exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation states. “Weaponizing the DOJ to surveil political opposition not only violates the rights of the subjects of the investigation, but also the American people who were unable to know the facts of the investigation due to the secrecy of it.”
Special counsel Jack Smith subpoenaed the lawmakers’ phone records as part of the “Arctic Frost” investigation, which became his 2020 election case against President Donald Trump. He sought “detailed records for inbound and outbound calls, text messages, direct connect, and voicemail messages” between Jan. 4 and Jan. 7, 2021.
While Verizon compiled with Smith’s subpoena, AT&T decided not to after raising questions about their “legal basis.”
Boasberg’s approval of the nondisclosure orders “could be a constitutional violation,” CASA Director James Fitzpatrick told the DCNF.
“Boasberg should be immediately investigated and, if found to have violated judicial canons, must be disciplined to maintain the integrity and independence of the federal judiciary,” Fitzpatrick said.
Republican Texas Rep. Brandon Gill filed articles of impeachment against Boasberg on Wednesday. The articles allege he violated a federal law ensuring communications providers for Senate offices “shall not be barred, through operation of any court order or any statutory provision, from notifying the Senate office of any legal process seeking disclosure of Senate data.”
“Chief Judge Boasberg does not appreciate basic statute and contributed to the legal inquiries that violate the law indicating he is unfit to serve as Chief Judge,” the articles state.
Gill previously filed articles of impeachment in March after Boasberg ordered the government to turn around planes carrying alleged gang members to El Salvador. The Department of Justice (DOJ) likewise filed an ethics complaint against Boasberg for “improper” comments he made at the judicial conference in March.
CASA’s complaint also highlights comments Boasberg made in March at The Judicial Conference of the United States, where he expressed concern “that the Administration would disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a constitutional crisis,” according to The Federalist.
“At the time of these statements, President Trump and his administration were already defendants in dozens of federal lawsuits, including some within the District of Columbia,” the complaint states. “To that date, Trump had complied with every order.”

Three Reasons a Coffee Gift Set From This Christian Company Is Perfect for Christmas
When you’re searching for a Christmas gift that’s meaningful, useful, and rooted in faith, you don’t want to settle for anything generic. This season is filled with noise — mass-produced products, last-minute picks, and trends that fade as quickly as they appear. But one gift stands apart because it blends genuine quality with a message that matters: a coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee.
This small Christian-owned company has become a favorite among believers who want to support faith-driven businesses while giving friends and family something they’ll actually enjoy. Here are three reasons a Promised Grounds Coffee gift set may be the most thoughtful and impactful present you give this year.
1. It’s Truly Delicious Coffee
Too many “gift-worthy” coffees look beautiful in the package but disappoint when the cup is poured. Promised Grounds takes the opposite approach — exceptional taste first, thoughtful presentation second.
Their beans are sourced with care, roasted in small batches, and crafted to bring out a rich, smooth flavor profile that appeals to both casual drinkers and true coffee lovers. Whether someone enjoys bold, dark roasts or lighter, more delicate blends, every sip reflects quality that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest specialty brands.
Simply put: this coffee is good. Really good. Some say it’s absolutely fantastic. If you want a gift that won’t be re-gifted, ignored, or shoved in a cabinet, this is it.
2. It Spreads the Word While Serving a Real Purpose
There are many Christian gifts that are meaningful… but not exactly practical. There are also useful gifts that have nothing to do with faith. Promised Grounds Coffee bridges both worlds beautifully.
Each gift set delivers an encouraging, faith-centered message through its packaging and presentation — a simple but powerful reminder of God’s goodness during the Christmas season. The cups are especially popular and serve as a daily reminder of the blessings from our Lord. At the same time, the product itself is something people will actually use and appreciate every single day.
It’s a gift that uplifts the spirit and fills the mug. A gift that points loved ones toward Scripture while still being part of the normal rhythm of life. And in a culture that increasingly pushes faith to the margins, giving a gift that quietly but confidently honors Christ can make a deeper impact than you might expect.
3. It’s Affordable, Valuable, and Elegantly Presented
Many people want to give something meaningful without breaking their Christmas budget. Promised Grounds Coffee strikes that perfect balance — the sets look and feel premium, but the price remains accessible.
The packaging is classy, clean, and gift-ready, making it ideal for:
- Family members of all ages
- Co-workers or employees
- Church friends or small-group leaders
- Hosts, neighbors, and last-minute gift needs
It’s the kind of gift that feels more expensive than it is — and more thoughtful than most of what you’ll find on store shelves.
The Perfect Blend of Faith, Flavor, and Christmas Cheer
A coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee checks every box: a gift that tastes amazing, conveys your faith, supports a Christian business, and brings daily enjoyment to the person who receives it. In a season when so many gifts are forgotten, this one stands out for all the right reasons.
If you want a Christmas present that reflects your values and delivers genuine joy, Promised Grounds Coffee is the perfect place to start.
