A New Mexico judge and his wife have also been arrested, for allegedly hiding a TdA gang member in their home. Given recent history, it’s probably best to take the “hiding” and “gang member” allegations with a fistful of salt. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Don’t let the arrest of a Federal Judge distract you from the announcement that ICE can enter anyone’s home without a warrant to look for migrants.

So to sum up the Wisconsin arrest issue: ICE didn't have a juridical warrant. They only had an administrative warrant. The DOJ has not convened a grand jury to indict the judge. They only got a criminal complaint before a magistrate judge. This is ridiculous.

Canonically, Jon Arbuckle's parents operate a soybean farm. Trump's trade war will devastate American soybean farmers. Will this get reflected in the comic strip? Specifically, will we see Doc Boy arriving at Jon's home to tell him that their father has hanged himself?

NEW: FBI releases photo showing the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan at the Milwaukee County Courthouse this morning

submitted 5 hours ago • 141 comments

So, Judge Hannah Dugan is apparently going to go through the regular due process of a person charged with a crime in the U.S., right? Presumably she'll go in front of a federal judge at some point? And that judge - her colleague - will evaluate the merits of the charges against her?

Through all his troubles, neither the DOJ/FBI nor any state authorities ever subjected Donald Trump to arrest, preferring in every case to proceed by indictment and voluntary surrender. It’s notable that a sitting judge and pillar of the Milwaukee community was not extended the same courtesy.

The FBI is literally arresting judges now. Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan is accused of "shielding an immigrant in her courthouse from being detained by ICE" by “intentionally misdirecting” federal agents who arrived at the courthouse to detain an immigrant set to appear before her."

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️. Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

Somebody's going to be the Caucasian man to assault an I.C.E. security guard during an attempted kidnapping. That person will either get a trial or they won't. It will be interesting to see what the public reaction is.

In February 2020, active news readers were aware of the coming pandemic but not the mass public. I’m getting the same sense of dread about how the trade wars are gonna hit the U.S. economy over the next few months unless Trump figures out an artful way to capitulate.
