The president is apparently raging after discovering a judge who ruled against him has now been assigned a case to look into the leaked 'US war plans' scandal.

Donald Trump took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to rant about his least favorite judge, James Boasberg, being assigned to the 'Signalgate' lawsuit.

Earlier this month, White House officials managed to accidentally add a journalist to a group chat on Signal that discussed an upcoming attack on Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The legal complaint brought by the government watchdog group, American Oversight, states several senior officials 'failed to meet their obligations under the Federal Records Act' over the group chat discussion of military operations from March 11 to March 15.

This includes Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent, and Secretary of State and Acting Archivist of the US, Marco Rubio, as well as Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, and Director of the Central Intelligence agency, John L. Ratcliffe.

However, the POTUS is less than happy about the proceedings, calling it another 'Trump case', saying the judge's assignment is evidence of 'corruption' and a 'rigged system.'

He ranted: "How disgraceful is it that 'Judge' James Boasberg has just been given a fourth 'Trump Case,' something which is, statistically, IMPOSSIBLE.

"There is no way for a Republican, especially a TRUMP REPUBLICAN, to win before him."

Boasberg, a district judge in Washington, was reportedly assigned the lawsuit on Wednesday (March 26) at random, reports The Guardian.

He has previously been slammed by Trump who said the attorney should be impeached for preventing deportations of Venezuelan migrants.

The POTUS continued in his post: "[Boasberg] is Highly Conflicted, not only in his hatred of me — Massive Trump Derangement Syndrome! — but also, because of disqualifying family conflicts.

"Boasberg, who is the Chief Judge of the D.C. District Court, seems to be grabbing the 'Trump Cases' all to himself, even though it is not supposed to happen that way.

"Is there still such a thing as the 'wheel,' where the Judges are chosen fairly, and at random?

"The good news is that it probably doesn’t matter, because it is virtually impossible for me to get an Honest Ruling in D.C."

"Our Nation’s Courts are broken," Trump continued, "with New York and D.C. being the most preeminent of all in their Corruption and Radicalism. There must be an immediate investigation of this Rigged System, before it is too late!"

The lawsuit claims the team's actions were unlawful and seeks an injunction against the Trump administration officials to recover any of the deleted material to protect records as per the Federal Records Act.

While the administration has not responded to the lawsuit, officials have claimed no classified information was shared across the messaging platform - and Trump has pointed fingers at Signal by saying it 'could be defective.'
