Donald Trump's MAGA allies on Saturday had two conservative Supreme Court justices in their crosshairs after a federal judge put a stop to the President's plans to deport individuals the administration says are members of a gang.

Inner City Press reported on Saturday that Chief Judge Boasberg said, "AUSA, you must inform your client immediately. Any plane in the air must be returned to the US. You must make sure this is complied with immediately."

That order requiring Trump to turn planes around didn't sit well with MAGA followers.

Trump legal ally and GOP insider Mike Davis said, "An activist Obama DC judge thinks he has the power to order the President to turn around planes deporting vicious Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang members? When will the Chief Justice and Justice Barrett end this extremely dangerous judicial sabotage of the presidency?"

"The President of the United States correctly designated Tren de Aragua (TdA), a vicious Venezuelan gang, as a foreign-terrorist organization. The President correctly put these terrorists on planes to get them the hell out of our country. Yet DC Obama Judge James Boasberg thinks he has the power to order the President to turn around the planes in mid-air and bring back these terrorists into America," he added.

"This is the most dangerous constitutional crisis imaginable. I do not say this lightly: The President has a constitutional duty, as the chief executive officer and commander-in-chief, to ignore Judge Boasberg's lawless and dangerous order," Davis then said. "The Supreme Court must use the emergency docket to immediately stay Judge Boasberg's order. Next week, the House must impeach Judge Boasberg. And defund his court."

He said, "It’s time to ignore these illegal orders. It’s time to impeach these lawless judges. It’s time to defund these lawless courts."

"Today's constitutional crisis is the direct result of the Chief Justice and Justice Barrett's horrifying judgment less than two weeks ago. They've emboldened these judicial saboteurs. This is an extremely dangerous game," Davis concluded.

Mike Fragoso, former counsel to Mitch McConnell, chimed in, "CJ Boasberg is probably the most well respected, mainstream D on DDC. He’s old pals with Brett Kavanaugh."

"And yet he’s issuing orders to planes in the air to bring their gang-members back," Fragoso then added. "The most right-wing Texas judge wouldn’t dream of this. Food for thought."

Fragoso then added, "At some point Trump is just going to order the plane to Honduras and then pardon everyone involved. I’d tag the Chief Justice if I knew his alt. Because that’s what’s coming his way if he doesn’t put a stop to the TRO madness."

Former GOP Senator Jim DeMint said, "TDA is a designated terrorist organization working with the Venezuelan government to conduct violent attacks on American soil. Obama Judge Boasberg is now demanding Trump fly known terrorists back into the US. If ever there was a judge to impeach, start with this radical."

Current GOP Senator Mike Lee also added, "Federal judges remain in office 'during good behaviour.'"

"Time to file a petition for an extraordinary writ of mandamus," the lawmaker also said. "This isn’t funny."

Lee also put the Supreme Court on the spot.

"Too bad SCOTUS didn’t put an end to this nonsense two weeks ago," he said on X.
