A Deep Dive into the Controversial Actions of Judge Amy Berman Jackson
The legal maneuvers surrounding Roger Stone have once again brought Judge Amy Berman Jackson into the spotlight, a figure many have dubbed emblematic of the so-called “Deep State.” The allegations against her suggest a web of corruption that extends beyond her courtroom.
In a notable 2013 ruling, Judge Jackson dismissed the Catholic Church’s objections to the contraceptive mandates of Obamacare, a decision that was later overturned by the Supreme Court. This early encounter with contentious issues laid the groundwork for her reputation.
Fast forward to 2017, where Judge Jackson dismissed a wrongful death suit against Hillary Clinton filed by families of the Benghazi victims. Their claims centered on allegations that Clinton failed to act in their sons’ defense and subsequently misled the public regarding her actions.
In an intriguing twist of fate, Judge Jackson found herself presiding over numerous cases related to the Mueller investigation. According to a report from The Hill in March 2019, Jackson’s assignment to these cases was described as “random,” which raises the question: can randomness ever be truly random in the politically charged environment of Washington?
Lisa Klem, a special assistant to Chief Judge Beryl Howell at the federal D.C. court, stated that Jackson was assigned the criminal cases against Paul Manafort and his associate Richard Gates, as well as the indictment of twelve Russian military officers accused of hacking the DNC in 2016.
Other cases, including those of Alex van der Zwaan and Sam Patten, were also assigned to her due to their ties to Manafort’s activities. Van der Zwaan, a Dutch attorney, was the first person charged in the Mueller investigation, ultimately pleading guilty to lying to investigators.
The case against Roger Stone was interestingly assigned to Jackson under similar pretenses, as it was deemed related to the alleged Russian interference. Yet, unlike the typical randomness of judicial assignments, this case seemed to have been deliberately steered her way by the Mueller team.
Stone’s defense team, anticipating an uphill battle, requested a reassignment of the case to a randomly chosen judge on February 8, 2019. Their plea was denied, and soon after, Judge Jackson imposed a gag order on Stone, mirroring her previous actions with Manafort.
In an unexpected continuation of events, Jackson also oversaw the case of former Obama White House counsel Greg Craig, who was ultimately acquitted after she dismissed one of the charges against him. This dismissal raised eyebrows among critics who viewed it as another example of judicial favoritism.
Moreover, Jackson’s recent rulings in cases related to the January 6 events have drawn criticism, particularly for her treatment of defendants whom she reportedly belittled, handing down lengthy sentences to many.
Roger Stone has vocally criticized Jackson’s judicial conduct, claiming she accused him of “covering up for the president,” a statement he vehemently refuted, questioning the validity of allegations of Russian collusion.
As tensions mount, sixteen House Republicans have now agreed to cosponsor Articles of Impeachment against Judge Jackson, signaling a potential escalation in the political battle surrounding her judicial decisions.

In a striking appearance last year, Jackson was present in the courtroom during President Trump’s indictment, further fueling the fire of speculation surrounding her involvement with the so-called Deep State.
