House Republicans are planning to introduce long-shot articles of impeachment against at least two of the federal judges who have blocked President Trump's efforts to upend the federal government. Why it matters: The measures are part of a growing public conflict between Republicans and the federal judiciary as Trump bristles at obstacles to his "government efficiency" agenda.

A key voice in the Trump administration is looking to weaponize the impeachment process against federal judges who disagree with the administration, taking political advantage of a rarely used tool intended only for ‘high crimes.

Two lawmakers so far have come out in favor of impeaching jurists who have blocked administration policies in the last three weeks.
