Articles of impeachment have just been filed against another anti-Trump judge.
Today, Rep. Andy Ogles formally filed articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge John Bates.
Bates had previously ruled to block President Trump’s executive order to take down all so-called ‘gender-affirming care’ resources from government websites.
Rep. Ogles is accusing Judge Bates of “weaponization of his bench” and being a “radical LGBTQ activist.”

I just formally introduced articles of impeachment against RADICAL LGBTQ ACTIVIST U.S. District Judge John Bates. His attempt to block President Trump’s order to remove webpages containing resources for “gender-affirming care” from government sites is appalling.

Here’s what the press release on Rep. Ogles’ official website had to say:
Congressman Andy Ogles introduced articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge John Bates for high crimes and misdemeanors. Judge Bates is attempting to force the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to restore radical LGBTQ propaganda on taxpayer-funded websites. His decision nullifies Executive Order 14168, an action from the President removing and restricting any of this content from being published on government websites.
“Requiring taxpayer funds to disseminate information endorsing the castration of children is repugnant. D.C. U.S. District Court Judge John Bates’s order demonstrates a purposeful disregard for President Trump’s authority, serial incompetence, and blatant weaponization of his bench. In short, Judge Bates joins the ranks of hundreds of political activists disobeying their oaths to score political points,” said Congressman Ogles. “The continued socialization of this grave moral evil necessitates immediate Congressional action against those promoting it. America’s founders gave Congress the authority to impeach judges to defend the will of the people. My articles will do just that. It is unacceptable for rogue judges to implicate taxpayers in woke LGBTQ propaganda and the irreversible destruction of children’s bodies.”
More details from The Hill:
Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) on Monday introduced an impeachment resolution against a federal judge who ordered federal health agencies to temporarily restore online datasets scrubbed as part of the Trump administration’s crackdown on “gender ideology.”
The article of impeachment says U.S. District Judge John Bates’s conduct in the case was “so utterly lacking in intellectual honesty and basic integrity that he is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors.”
Earlier this month, Bates agreed with a left-leaning physicians group that federal health agencies likely violated federal law when they took down various data to align with President Trump’s executive order recognizing only two sexes.
“At no point in American history has the judiciary considered the surgical or chemical castration of healthy children to be a compelling or even legitimate health concern and it shouldn’t start now. We must protect our children from predators like Judge Bates,” Ogles wrote on the social platform X.
Bates sits on Washington, D.C.’s federal trial court and was appointed to the bench by the younger former President Bush in 2001. Bates declined to comment through a court spokesperson.
Impeaching federal judges has become an exceedingly rare occurrence. A majority of the House would need to vote to impeach Bates, and to remove him from office, two-thirds of the Senate would have to vote to convict.
This news comes after another Rep. Eli Crane introduced articles of impeachment against another anti-Trump judge who ruled to block DOGE’s access to Treasury payments systems.

It's Judgement Day for judges who fight against President Trump's mandate.
