A majority of voters say they support impeaching James Boasberg, the federal judge linked to the Biden administration’s “Arctic Frost” investigation, which reportedly involved surveillance of Republican
According to a Rasmussen Reports telephone and online survey, 67% of likely U.S. voters view “Arctic Frost” as a serious scandal, with 43% describing it as “very serious.”
Meanwhile, 26% of respondents said they do not consider the controversy serious, including 12% who said it is “not at all” serious, Just the News reported.
The survey comes amid a GOP-led effort to make Boasberg the first impeached judge since 2010. A total of 15 federal judges have been impeached by the House, but only eight were removed by the Senate.
Republican lawmakers in the House want to move against Boasberg after revelations that he and Judge Beryl Howell issued non-disclosure orders shielding nearly 200 subpoenas targeting Republican organizations, officials, and donors under former Special Counsel Jack Smith, who was appointed by the Biden Justice Department.
Last week, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) said he is drafting articles of impeachment against Boasberg. Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) also signaled his intent to pursue impeachment. It is not yet clear whether Howell will also face similar action, The National Pulse
The outlet added that Smith issued 197 subpoenas affecting more than 430 Republican groups and individuals as part of what is being described as the “Arctic Frost” probe. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) called the investigation a “fishing expedition” targeting the Republican political apparatus.
Among the subpoenas were requests for telecom companies to hand over cell data from about a dozen Republican lawmakers. The disclosure orders signed by Boasberg and Howell prevented the companies from notifying the affected members.
“Radical activist judge James Boasberg continues to weaponize his judicial authority and target his political opponents,” Gill said in a statement. “Judge Boasberg facilitated the egregious Arctic Frost scandal, where he equipped the Biden DOJ to spy on Republican senators. His lack of integrity makes him clearly unfit for the gavel.”
Boasberg, appointed by former President Barack Obama, serves as chief judge for the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. He has faced criticism in the past for rulings that affected Trump administration policies.
According to reports, the subpoenas targeted political vendors and financial institutions linked to Trump-aligned PACs, suggesting that Smith’s office sought to trace potential monetary connections between consulting firms, advisors, and nonprofits. The goal appeared to be establishing grounds for possible RICO charges if prosecutors had secured a conviction against Trump.
In March, Representative Andy Biggs of Arizona introduced a resolution to remove Judge Boasberg from office under Article III, Section 1 of the Constitution — an approach that would bypass impeachment and the two-thirds vote required in the Senate, JustTheNews
Biggs said federal judges “serve during good behavior” and argued that Congress has the authority to remove those who fail to meet that standard.
“Most Americans believe that there is lifetime tenure for a federal judge. That unless impeached, a federal judge can serve until death,” Biggs told Just the News. “But lifetime tenure is not guaranteed, nor mentioned, in the Constitution. Article III, Section 1 permits a federal judge to serve only ‘during good behavior.’”
Boasberg had previously blocked President Trump from using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport illegal immigrants alleged to be members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. He ordered government planes en route to El Salvador carrying the alleged gang members to return to the United States.
Biggs said such actions exceeded judicial authority and interfered with presidential powers over foreign policy and national security.
“Maybe firing such a judge could be the answer,” Biggs said. “It would certainly be specific deterrence that would prevent that type of misconduct from such a judge. And it would provide general deterrence in that all other federal judges would think more about applying the law to the case rather than attempting to twist the law so that the judge can attack a political adversary.”

An eight-year-old boy rescued a child trapped in a locked car, got late to class, and was scolded—but then something surprising happened!
A Hero in the Parking Lot
Eight-year-old Liam Parker dashed across the grocery store parking lot, backpack bouncing against his shoulders. He was late for school. Mrs. Grant had warned him the day before: one more tardy, and she would call his parents. Liam dreaded that call almost as much as the look on his father’s face.
A Life on the Line
Halfway across the lot, Liam froze. Sun beat down on a silver sedan. Inside, a baby sat strapped in a car seat. Its tiny fists flailed weakly, face red, cheeks streaked with tears. The glass was rolled up tight. Sweat glistened on the child’s forehead. The lot was nearly empty.
Liam’s stomach turned. Heat could kill faster than anyone imagin
ed. He dropped his backpack, ran to the car, and yanked at every handle. Locked. He tapped on the glass. No one appeared.
Quick Thinking, Brave Action
His eyes landed on a jagged rock near the curb. Heavy and rough, but perfect. Liam lifted it, whispered, “I’m sorry, Mister Car,” and swung. The first strike cracked the glass. The second widened it. By the third, shards rained onto the pavement.
Careful, he reached inside, unbuckled the straps, and lifted the baby out. Clammy skin pressed to his shirt. He rocked the child instinctively. “It’s okay. You’re safe now,” he whispered.
Panic and Gratitude
A scream pierced the lot. “What are you doing to my car?!”
A woman ran toward him, groceries spilling, eyes wide with panic. Her gaze shifted to the baby in Liam’s arms. Her color drained. “Oh my God…” she gasped, dropping her groceries. She hugged the child, kissed the sweaty forehead, tears streaking her cheeks. “Thank you. Thank you,” she whispered.
Back to School
The school bell rang. Liam’s heart sank. He bolted, leaving the shattered car behind.
He arrived in class minutes later, chest heaving, hair plastered with sweat, hands cut from glass. Mrs. Grant’s eyes narrowed. “Liam Parker, you’re late. Again.”
Liam froze. How could he explain? Who would believe he had smashed a stranger’s car window to save a baby?
“Sorry, Mrs. Grant,” he whispered.
“That’s it,” she snapped. “We’ll call your parents.”
The class giggled. Liam’s cheeks burned. He stared at his scraped hands, wondering if he’d made a mistake.
Recognition at Last
At recess, kids teased him or ignored him. Liam thought only of the baby’s flushed face. He would do it again, no matter the trouble.
That afternoon, just before dismissal, the classroom door opened. The woman from the parking lot entered, cradling her now-rested baby.
“This little boy saved my child’s life today,” she said, voice shaking. “I left him in the car thinking I’d be quick. Liam had already broken the window and pulled him out. If not for him…”
The room fell silent. Eyes swung to Liam. His face flushed again, but this time with pride.
Mrs. Grant knelt beside him, hand on his shoulder. “You didn’t just save a baby. You reminded us what real courage looks like.”
The class erupted in applause. Some shouted, “Hero!” The woman kissed Liam’s forehead. “You’ll always be part of our family’s story,” she whispered.
A Lesson in Timing
That evening, his parents got the call. Not about detention. Not about tardiness. About pride. They hugged him tight, telling him how proud they were.
Liam went to bed with a new understanding. Doing the right thing doesn’t always bring immediate praise. Sometimes it brings misunderstanding. But the truth always finds its way. And for Liam Parker, a boy who thought he was always late, he had been exactly on time when it mattered most.
