President Trump ordered his administration to come up with a plan to secure America’s elections. There was a well-defined set of goals behind this order: verify citizenship, prosecute fraudsters, and mail ballots only to verified Americans. Obama-appointed Boston Judge Indira Talwani spent months trying to stop President Trump. The Supreme Court slapped her down on Aug. 24. She defied the highest court the very next day, putting a hold back in place on Trump’s election integrity order. Her goal is obvious: Run out the clock and ensure noncitizens illegally and criminally vote by mail for Democrats this November. The only option left is to impeach Talwani.
Election integrity secures the survival of our Republic. Trump understands this, so he ordered his Justice Department and Department of Homeland Security to prosecute election fraudsters. He also ordered the DOJ and DHS to work with the U. S. Postal Service to devise a plan to mail ballots only to verified American citizens.

Trump instructed his administration to build citizen rolls to stop noncitizens from illegally voting in federal elections. These directives touch no one outside the executive branch. Only Americans can vote in federal elections. Period.

Naturally, Democrats panicked. Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia sued to stop the order. The League of Women Voters filed a separate suit parroting the same theory. Talwani eagerly issued illegal injunctions in both cases.
Late last month, the Supreme Court stepped in. Over the dissent of three Democrat-appointed justices, the high court stopped Talwani’s order in the states’ lawsuit. The justices dismantled Talwani’s legal fiction.
TRUMP SCORES SUPREME COURT WIN ON MAIL-IN VOTING RESTRICTIONS BEFORE MIDTERMS
They ruled the states lacked standing, which is required by Article III of the U.S. Constitution, because they suffered no concrete harm. Trump’s order applied only to federal executive branch officials developing a final rule. The justices also determined the challenge was not ripe because no final rule existed. You cannot suffer harm from a nonexistent rule.
The League of Women Voters suit was not before the justices. But the legal issues were indistinguishable. Talwani should have rescinded her second illegal injunction immediately upon remand. Instead, she brazenly defied the Supreme Court.
FEDERAL JUDGE AGAIN BLOCKS TRUMP’S MAIL BALLOT ORDER JUST BEFORE MIDTERMS
The next day, Talwani declared the Trump administration defied her mandate in the League case because it finalized the regulation while her unlawful edict was in place. As Iowa Solicitor General Eric Wessan noted, Talwani issued a meaningless “advisory opinion.” She cited no one for contempt, yet she asserted the government somehow breached her illegal decree.
Dan McLaughlin of The National Review rightly called her maneuver “chutzpah.” Talwani finally rescinded her ruling the following day, but her insubordination remains. That is not a judge applying the law. That is a rogue operative in a black robe.
This is part of a pattern of judicial anarchy. Talwani previously attempted to steal Congress’ power of the purse related to Trump’s signature One Big Beautiful Bill. Congress passed the legislation to defund Planned Parenthood — a Democrat fundraising machine masquerading as a health organization. President Trump signed it.
Planned Parenthood sued, and Talwani laughably declared the defunding unconstitutional. That is a clownish courtroom coup.
Thankfully, even the hard-left U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reversed her. At the time, that court lacked a single Republican-appointed judge in active service. When a hard-left circuit court reverses a Democrat judge for going too far, she is not interpreting the law; she is rewriting and abandoning it.
Now Talwani is back at it. Just this week, in a blatant effort to delay appellate review, Talwani issued a temporary restraining order against Trump’s now-finalized election security rule. While permanent injunctions are appealable, TROs–which last up to four weeks–generally are not. Talwani’s goal is clear. She is stalling to prevent the election-integrity measure from taking effect before the election. She wants noncitizens illegally voting by mail for Democrats. Period.
Activist Democrat judges infest the federal bench, and Talwani ranks among the worst. She repeatedly defies the Supreme Court, issues fake advisory opinions, acts as a partisan political operative from the bench, blocks duly passed laws on ridiculous grounds, and interferes in our elections to help her partisan pals.

Enough is enough. The House must impeach Talwani. In the meantime, a higher court must reassign her cases and end this farce.
