Someone have a word with Justice Amy. It's not good to follow your boss off a legal cliff.
And about that boss: Chief Justice Roberts has revealed his true colors to those who have been slow on the uptake. He can't credibly pose anymore as a shrewd tactician, as a protector of the legal system or of SCOTUS itself, or as a moderating force for the nation. Whether he's been bought and paid for, intimidated, converted to some strange political religion, or whatever, he's now unmasked.
Impeachment is appropriate for Judge Boasberg, but Trump must defend the powers of the presidency by refusing to obey any lower court stay or TRO. In matters of national defense, even the Supreme Court can't enjoin the elected president. John Roberts and the Supremes can't second guess Trump if he decides to send the Sixth Fleet into the Med, or if he deports terrorists. Trump doesn't need Congress to assert his Constitutional powers as Commander in Chief.
Well done, Lloyd. With what is known about Boasberg, it is time for DOJ to turn the screws on him until he squeals like the pig that he is.
As for Roberts, RAM's post below states it perfectly.

It’s time to strip judges of their clerical robes. They need to be exposed as politicians not priests.
What would be the grounds to impeach Boasberg
