The DC Circuit Court of Appeals has issued a writ of mandamus against District Court Judge Jeb Boasberg, one of the most powerful and public judicial rebukes a federal judge can receive. A writ of mandamus is not a polite suggestion. It is an appellate court telling a lower court judge, in plain terms, that he got it wrong, that he exceeded his authority, and that he needs to be corrected by force of court order. For Boasberg, who has made a habit of stretching his jurisdiction to its breaking point in case after case involving the Trump administration, this is not a surprise. It is a consequence.

This is not the first time Boasberg has been checked by the DC Circuit, and the pattern is worth understanding. Judge after judge, ruling after ruling, Boasberg has inserted himself into disputes where the law did not support the aggressive posture he was taking. His conduct in the Alien Enemies Act litigation, including his attempt to launch criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump administration, was a remarkable display of a judge who appeared to be driven by something other than neutral legal analysis. The appeals court has now, once again, made clear that there are limits, and that Boasberg has exceeded them.

In today's video, we break down the majority opinion issuing the mandamus, explain what the court said, what it means, and what it tells us about a federal judiciary that is still sorting out which judges are applying law and which are applying politics. If you have been following the Boasberg saga, this is the payoff episode. If you are new to it, this is the place to start. Either way, this one matters.
