In a bold move that is shaking up the judicial and political landscape in Washington, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched an aggressive campaign to disqualify U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell from a high‑profile case involving President Donald Trump’s executive orders.
Attorney General Pam Bondi, a staunch defender of Trump’s policies, has accused Judge Howell of demonstrating a clear bias against the president and his administration. The DOJ’s filing alleges that Judge Howell has repeatedly shown “hostility” toward Trump and has even used inflammatory language in previous cases, raising serious questions about her impartiality.
