WASHINGTON D.C. — Donald Trump amplified a post from Representative Abe Hamadeh, a Republican from Arizona, saying Hamadeh intends to file articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan.
Here is the full post on truthsocial: “I’m filing articles of impeachment against “Judge”Sparkle Sooknanan. Her power grab against President Trump cannot be tolerated. Rogue judges like her are destroying the rule of law while communists undermine America. We have the RIGHT to know that only AMERICANS are voting in our elections. Americans elected Trump to lead, not the rogue judges who are behaving as activists for the communists cloaked in their black robes.” on August 21, 2026 at 12:27 PM ET.
