In a striking and deeply concerning pattern of behavior, Federal Judge Theodore Chuang has shown himself to be far more than an impartial arbiter of the law—he has become a political operative in a black robe. Congressman Andy Ogles has laid out a compelling case for impeachment, citing a troubling record of rulings and affiliations that suggest Chuang is using his bench not to uphold the Constitution but to promote a radical, leftist agenda.
Judge Chuang, currently serving on the Maryland Federal District Court, has recently blocked President Trump and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from reigning in the reckless spending of USAID. Among the egregious examples of waste, Rep. Ogles highlights taxpayer dollars being used for Guatemalan sex-change programs, DEI initiatives in Serbia, and even a $47,000 transgender opera. This isn’t governance—it’s ideological colonization paid for by the American people.
But this latest move is just one in a long line of partisan oversteps. Chuang’s judicial activism is well documented. In 2017, he struck down President Trump’s travel ban, basing his decision not on legal precedent, but on cherry-picked tweets—an unprecedented and unprofessional move that undermined executive authority and national security.
Chuang’s past is equally telling. His résumé is littered with partisan positions, from his leadership in Democrat clubs to serving as a delegate at the 2002 Massachusetts Democratic Convention. As editor of the Harvard Law Review, he pushed Marxist ideas such as Critical Race Theory and “Whiteness as Property,” laying the ideological foundation for his future rulings.
Even in matters of life and death, Chuang chose ideology over responsibility. In 2020, he overruled a Trump-era policy requiring in-person doctor visits for chemical abortions during the COVID pandemic, greenlighting mail-order abortions and bypassing safeguards for women’s health under the guise of protecting “abortion rights.”
His most recent ruling—a baseless injunction against President Trump, Elon Musk, DOGE, and even POTUS—is a blatant abuse of judicial authority. As Rep. Ogles puts it, Judge Chuang is not serving the people; he’s serving the woke bureaucracy and Democrat mega-donors who elevated him.
Congress cannot remain idle while a federal judge transforms the judiciary into a tool of left-wing politics. The Constitution provides a mechanism for dealing with such abuses: impeachment.
Judge Theodore Chuang has demonstrated time and again that he is incapable of impartiality and unworthy of the trust placed in him by the American people. He must be held accountable. It’s time for Congress to act—before one judge’s radical agenda does more irreversible damage to our nation.
