Supreme Court Chief Justice Slams Trump's Call to Impeach Judge
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts has issued a rare statement rebuking President Donald Trump for calling for the impeachment of a federal judge. 'For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision,' Roberts, a conservative, wrote on Tuesday. 'The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.' The statement comes hours after Trump attacked U.S. District Judge James Boasberg on Truth Social for trying to block the administration from deporting Venezuelan migrants to an El Salvadorian prison without due process. Trump ranted that Boasberg is 'Radical Left Lunatic' who 'was not elected President,' before demanding he be impeached. 'This judge, like many of the Crooked Judges' I am forced to appear before, should be IMPEACHED!!!' Trump wrote on Truth Social. 'WE DON'T WANT VICIOUS, VIOLENT, AND DEMENTED CRIMINALS, MANY OF THEM DERANGED MURDERERS, IN OUR COUNTRY.' Trump and his advisers have been ramping up their attacks on the nation's court system as judges continue to block the president's executive orders and other actions, many of which appear to be unconstitutional. The White House doesn't seem to care. This is a breaking news story and will be updated.

'A lot of the fire fighters in the past always celebrated a strong history with St. Patrick's Day.'

Law enforcement officials, including the Shinnston Police Department, highlighted their strong collaboration with county sheriffs and area police departments, emphasizing their shared commitment to public safety.

We are now at three K-9's, we have two shepherds and a bloodhound,' Chief of the Shinnston Police Department Jon Harbert said.

Officers noted that the program has expanded each year, with K9 units playing a crucial role in monthly drug seizures, thanks to coordinated efforts with the sheriff's department. 'It's an honor to be a part of the community and an honor to be a volunteer fireman. So, it's very cool to be able to give back to the community and be a part of this to get out there and show the people that we serve and just to support them,' Harrison County Sheriff Robert Matheny II said. 'What is nice about being a volunteer fireman is it's not only just for Shinnston but it's for the first dues around the area like Spelter, Hebzibah, we help out Marion County when they have a fire.' Councilman Rodney Strait of the City of Shinnston highlighted the dedication of the area's first responders, emphasizing the extensive training and effort required for their roles. He also noted that this is a valuable opportunity for the city to honor them and for residents to show their appreciation. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
