  • A Republican ally of Donald Trump has moved to impeach a federal judge who blocked a team set up by the president and spearheaded by billionaire Elon Musk from accessing U.S. Treasury Department systems responsible for trillions of dollars in payments.

Republican Representative Elise Stefanik has initiated impeachment proceedings against U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell, accusing her of bias in her judicial rulings against former President Donald Trump. This move comes after Judge Howell, in a recent decision, allowed Trump's former White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows, to testify in a criminal investigation into Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. Stefanik claims that Howell's decisions demonstrate a "reckless disregard" for judicial impartiality and are part of a broader pattern of targeting Trump and his allies.
