“This is not normal.” Those words from Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., are undeniably true after the arrest of Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan. However, the reason it is not normal is far more debatable. Dugan is accused of becoming a lawbreaker in seeking to obstruct an effort to arrest a man wanted by federal authorities. If true, that is manifestly not “normal.”
As soon as the news of the arrest was reported, Democrats declared another constitutional crisis. Klobuchar added that the arrest “is a drastic move threatening the rule of law” and a “grave step and undermines our system of checks and balances.”
That is a curious claim unless Klobuchar believes that the officers are lying. If not, Klobuchar is suggesting that a judge should be allowed (or at least not held accountable) in actively shielding a wanted person and facilitating his evasion of law enforcement.
Sen. Tina Smith, D-Minn., also condemned Dugan’s arrest, stating, “If [FBI Director] Kash Patel and Donald Trump don’t like a judge, they think they can arrest them. This is stunning — we must stand up to this blatant power grab. Republicans: How is this not a red line for you?”
Yet, what is the “red line” for judges if the allegations are true? This judge is accused of conduct that has resulted in charges for other citizens. The judicial robe is not some form of invisibility cloak that allows judges to engage in alleged criminal acts.
The Wisconsin media is reporting:
Sources have told the Journal Sentinel that ICE officials arrived in Dugan’s courtroom on the morning of April 18. When they went to the chief judge’s office, Dugan directed the defendant and his attorney to a side door in the courtroom, directed them down a private hallway and into the public area on the 6th floor.
If true, that would be an active effort to help the suspect elude police who were carrying out a lawful function.
According to the criminal complaint, Flores-Ruiz allegedly attacked three individuals after an altercation with his roommate about playing loud music. Flores-Ruiz allegedly struck his roommate approximately 30 times with a closed fist and then attacked his girlfriend and a third person. Some of the injuries required hospital treatment.
The evasion of police at the courthouse required officers to chase down Ruiz, which could have resulted in a more serious confrontation on the street.
This is not the first time that a judge has been accused of participating in or directing such obstruction.
I previously wrote about the case of Massachusetts judge Shelley M. Richmond Joseph who was charged with allegedly helping an illegal immigrant evade ICE agents in April 2018. Joseph and court officer Wesley MacGregor were charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice, obstruction of justice, aiding and abetting and obstruction of a federal proceeding.
I was critical of the handling of the case. While Joseph was suspended for three years, charges were dropped in 2022 during the Biden Administration.
The Dugan case occurred at the same time that a New Mexico judge was arrested for harboring an unlawful immigrant and an alleged TdA gang member.
Former Doña Ana County Magistrate Judge Joel Cano and his wife were arrested on Thursday. Notably, Cano reportedly admitted to officers that he smashed the phone of Cristhian Ortega-Lopez after the 23-year-old was arrested in a raid at the judge’s home.
As I said on Fox last night, I am perplexed by Democrats rushing to denounce the arrest of Dugan before we know whether these allegations are supported. If she escorted the suspect to a non-public door to facilitate his escape, that is conduct and would constitute a shocking abandonment of judicial ethics. She can certainly use her authority to address matters properly before her in the form of judicial orders, but actively assisting in an escape is well beyond the pale.
I have often criticized the reckless rhetoric directed against judges, including those who have ruled against the Trump Administration. We need to maintain our civility and respect as we work through these often difficult questions.
However, that works both ways. Judges have to reinforce respect for the judiciary in their own conduct. That includes showing restraint and respect in relation to the countervailing powers of the Executive Branch. It certainly includes avoiding actions that could be viewed as criminal or unethical in resisting this Administration.
That is also a “red line.”

Punching someone in the face thirty times is without a doubt attempted murder. After four or five punches the victim was very much likely to have been rendered unconscious and yet the pounding continued. I knew a man that this happened to and he was bed ridden for three weeks. In cases like this some degree of brain damage is inevitable. Somehow we have posters on this blog known as Dennis McIntyre and Anonymous defending this guy. What kind of a person would jump to defend this guy? Somehow they would have us believe that they and they alone are the salt of the earth. Their true hero is The Joker.
RE: Dugan’s judicial philosophy
HANNAH DUGAN: TRANSFORMATIONAL LAW
Posted by Editor | Feb 9, 2016
Hannah Dugan: The agency faced challenging times. I helped stabilize finances and operations, and legal restructuring the agency by evaluating its programs for efficiency, mission-focus, and efficacy. I felt rewarded to redirect its path towards successes based not only on evidence-based decision making but also on measuring decisions against social justice principles.
https://www.milwaukeeindependent.com/profiles/hannah-dugan-transformational-law/
The US legal system is supposed to be based on the rule of rule not on “social justice principles”, a completely subjective outlook. If one were to substitute the phrase social justice principles with religious principles, Democrats would have none of it. Recall Senator Dianne Feinstein’s bigoted quip to SCOTUS nominee Amy Coney Barrett
#. Dogma in reverse is amgod .
What was on the cell phone jorl Cano smashed? Tampering with evidence.
No judicial warrant was shown during this incident. Trump’s ICE agents were acting like the thugs they are.
ICE was following the The judge didn’t
Nice try.
Professor Turley was remiss in not mentioning that the illegal was in court for beating the hell out of his wife. Anonymous sure does like and defend guys who punch their wives in the face. No surprise here.
So only Hispanics are the bad ones when it comes to wife beating and punching, not whites, or blacks, or asians? Are you just one of the many racists this blog attracts.
Seems you haven’t the smarts to think your comment through.
Anonymous, no one here is suggesting that white guys who punch their wives in the face should be able to get away with it. There must be a strand place in your brain that you go to make this silliness up. As usual you defend the indefensible to support your TDS. Turley Derangement Syndrome. The word deranged doesn’t properly define your depth of hate.
👍🏼
Did you miss the part (illegal) not the color of someone skin.
Nice try with the racist comment, but you failed.
Wait!
Race preference has been employed by communist governmental programs for nearly 75 years.
Race preference is OK for “people of color” but not OK for Americans?
That dudn’t make any sense, bruh!
Do you know which country you are in?
“American,” according to the men who made America and adopted the Constitution and Bill of Rights, the American Founders:
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Naturalization Acts of 1790, 1795, 1798, and 1802 (four iterations for maximal clarity)
United States Congress, “An act to establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization,” March 26, 1790
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That any Alien being a free white person, who shall have resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States for the term of two years, may be admitted to become a citizen thereof….
And ^^^ who wouldn’t beat the crap outta Yasmine crockoshat?
My vote is: YOU’RE a democrat-voter. When race plays no role, be sure to insert it ….. as divisively as possible.
I know nothing about the illegal. I do know that due process was not observed here. Some commenters on this blog would seem to be in support of a police state. This ugly episode is part of the Trump regime’s attack on the judiciary.
Process?
What are you talking about, the judge helped the illegal to get away from ICE.
She broke the law.
Was it a State crime?
So now you admit the judge did commit a crime
So you admit the judge did break the law.
#. AG Bondi said yes.
#. She released him after clearing him from the docket. The release was in private via a private avenue. ICE apprehended him on the street.
Those are facts?
It’s the judiciary’s attack on American law, America, and Americans.
Whine, whine and whine some more!
# The fellow had been deported and came back.
Sounds like ICE notified the judge they were there possibly to let the trial go on and then ICE would take him into custody.
Apparently the judge cleared her docket instead and released him.
ICE apprehended him outside on the street.
Illegal aliens are criminals, and violent ones are exponentially worse. Deportation should be an equal-opportunity patriotic duty, carried out by Americans and democrat-voters alike. President Trump is looking out for our nation’s safety and sovereignty, in complete contrast with democrat policies.
And pray tell Anonymous, how do you know that no judicial warrant was presented? Anonymous says no matter, I’ll just make some stuff up. Anonymous let us know that she is a lawyer employed by the federal government the other day and that she is being fired by the Trump administration. She works for the government but somehow she has the time to post on this blog from the early morning to late in the night. Anonymous, there’s a new sheriff in town and his name is sheriff DOGE. The government paying you to post on this blog all day and every day is an example of fraud waste and abuse. I will have to say that you have done a good job at working hard for your blood money.
There was no judicial warrant presented because no such warrant was issued.
This is an extract from the Criminal Complaint charging Dugan:
” Judge DUGAN asked if Deportation Officer A had a judicial warrant, and Deportation Officer A responded, “No, I have an administrative warrant.” Judge DUGAN stated that Deportation Officer A needed a judicial warrant”
A judicial warrant is an official court order signed by a judge or magistrate that authorizes a search of private property, seizure, or arrest based on probable cause that a crime is being committed or has been committed.
A judicial warrant will specify the specific address to be searched, specify the time period in which the search must take place, particularly describe the place or person, or both, to be searched and things to be seized, and can only be issued by a court and signed by a Judge or magistrate.
An ICE administrative warrant is a document, issued by a federal agency such as Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), purporting to document their authority to arrest a person suspected of violating immigration laws. These administrative documents are not signed by a neutral magistrate or judge but rather an immigration officer like an ICE agent.
ADMINISTRATIVE WARRANTS DO NOT ALLOW AGENTS TO ENTER ANY NON-PUBLIC SPACE WITHOUT CONSENT.
A courtroom is a space under the complete control of the judge and is not considered a public space, because the judge may exclude anyone from entering for any reason.
That is why Judge Dugan told the agents that they needed a judicial warrant.
What you are leaving out, intentionally or out of ignorance, is that the ICE officials were in the PUBLIC area of the court house. Duggan scrambled defendant away out the back door, and went out to meet ICE officials and mislead them.
More extracts from the Criminal Complaint.
Remember, this is the sworn account of the agents of what took place.
” After leaving the Chief Judge’s vestibule and returning to the public hallway, DEA Agent A reported that Flores-Ruiz and his attorney were in the public hallway. DEA Agent B also observed Flores-Ruiz and his attorney in the hallway near Courtroom 615 and noted that FloresRuiz was looking around the hallway.”
So 2 of the agents observed Florez-Ruiz in the PUBLIC HALLWAY and did nothing. They watched him but failed to arrest him.
“DEA Agent A followed Flores-Ruiz and his attorney towards the south elevator bank. At approximately 8:50 a.m., DEA Agent A alerted other members of the arrest team that DEA Agent A was ON THE ELEVATOR with Flores-Ruiz.
So this Agent was actually on the elevator with Florez-Ruiz, and did nothing. The agent was in the confined space of the elevator, where the defendant could not flee, and failed to act by arresting him. Instead he informed the other agents that he was in the elevator with the defendant. He allowed the defendant to exit the elevator and the building.
The sworn statement in the Criminal Complaint continues:
” Having received the above-referenced information from DEA Agent A, other members of the arrest team scrambled to locate Flores-Ruiz and arrest him”
This is utterly absurd.
An agent rode in the elevator with the defendant, and let him leave the building, but then the other agents had to “scramble to locate Florez-Ruiz and arrest him.”
The agents knew exactly where he was from the time he entered the elevator but did nothing.
An agent observed him leave the building, and did nothing.
Then suddenly the rest of the agents had to scramble to pursue him.
This sworn statement makes absolutely no sense, and immediately calls into question all the other claims by the agents regarding what the judge may or may not have done or said.
The Criminal Complaint is severely tainted by claims that make no sense.
We only have the agent’s word about the judge directing the defendant out through “the back door”.
In the face of the absurd inconsistencies in the agent’s sworn statement, it is reasonable to question his account of the “back door”.
The charges will be dismissed with prejudice.
It is quite clear that something else was going on here.
It is looking more and more like an attempt to entrap the judge.
Nice deflection from you MISstatement trying to defend Dugan who ostensibly demanded a “judicial warrant.” Your statement, “ADMINISTRATIVE WARRANTS DO NOT ALLOW AGENTS TO ENTER ANY NON-PUBLIC SPACE WITHOUT CONSENT.”
try again, clown.
anonymous at 12:14
“The primary issue in the government’s case against Dugan appears to be the fact that she allegedly directed Flores-Ruiz and his attorney to leave her courtroom through a private entryway called the ‘jury door.’ The hallway still leads out to the PUBLIC HALLWAY of the sixth floor of the courthouse, WHERE AGENTS had positioned themselves for the arrest.” (emphasis added).

I see why you post as anonymous because you don’t know what you are talking about.
I think that comment is from George, because it is directly lifted off the Internet, and George does that a great deal when he wants to come across as knowledgeable.
I am referring to the 12:14 comment
Anonymous at 1:00pm
You are correct.
According to the sworn Criminal Complaint, the agents did in fact position themselves in the public hallway.
They observed the defendant walk down the hallway to the elevators and simply watched him. They did not arrest him.
One of the agents got on the elevator and rode down to the street level, but did not arrest him in the elevator.
The agent watched him leave the building but failed to arrest him.
The agent had advised the other agents that he was on the elevator and had allowed him to leave the building.
The other agents then supposedly had to scramble to pursue the defendant who had literally been in the elevator with one of the agents.
This is from the agent’s sworn statement.
This makes absolutely no sense.
You also say, ” The primary issue in the government’s case against Dugan appears to be the fact that she allegedly directed Flores-Ruiz and his attorney to leave her courtroom through a private entryway called the ‘jury door.’
We only have the word of the agent that this actually happened.
Given that the agent’s sworn statement about the “pursuit” makes absolutely no sense, we can reasonably suspect that his claim about using the “jury door” is suspect.
If this case ever goes to trial, which it won’t, the defense will be able to eviscerate the agent’s absurd statement about the “pursuit”, and call into question the claim about the jury door.
This will require the government to independently prove that the judge directed the defendant to the jury door, from another witness, who probably does not exist.
This is looking more and more like a setup to entrap the judge.
You also say, ” I see why you post as anonymous because you don’t know what you are talking about.”
You are posting as Anonymous, so I take this as an admission that you do not know what you are talking about.
This nonsense has been addressed over and over.
No federal agent enticed or encouraged Judge Dugan to comit a crime.
There is no entrapment here.
Law enforcement being prepared and expecting miscunduct by a judge is NOT entrapment – it may be a “setup”
but it is a perfectly legal one.
When law enforcement expects that someone – like Judge Dugan is going to commit a crime they are allowed to be fully prepared and give them plenty of rope to hang themselves.
Judge Dugan directing Ruiz to leave through the jury room door was a crime.
Judge Dugan excorting him through that door was also a crime.
The fact that ICE did not immediately arress either Ruiz or Dugan is not relevant.
There is no get out of jail free card for obstruction if the obstruction was ineffective, or if it did not actually accomplish anything.
There is no get out of jail free coard if Ruiz was not arrested immediately – or even ever.
To the extent you are correct, that would be irrelevant.
Presuming that ICE needed a judicial warrant to remove Ruiz from a nonpublic portion of the courthouse.
That would not alter the FACT that Judge Dugan taking ANY steps to actively interfere with ICE
s ability to arest Ruiz would still be obstruction.
She can continue to conduct her hearing on he case invovlving Ruiz.
She likely can prevent uniformed ICE agents from entering the courtroom.
She MIGHT be able to prevent an arrest from occuring inside her courtroom.
she MIGHT be able to keep Ruiz in her courtroom for hours.
But ultimately he must leave. Judge Dugan can not provide him any direction regaridn leaving that thwarts ICE’s ability to arrest him.
She can not take him through chambers, she can not take him out the side door hoping no ICE agents are there.
Ruiz can possibly choose to do these on his own – but no one can advise him or assist him in evading arrest.
#. Warrants are for searches. I presume warrants can be for arrests. Administrative warrants cannot be used for a domicile.
What kind did ICE have? Dunno
ICE doesn’t need a judicial warrant to arrest people suspected of being, or known to be, illegal aliens in public. They need a judicial warrant to enter and detain in private areas.
ICE will have quite the struggle if each of the 15+ million criminal cases is this difficult.
ICE will need a novel “mass or class action” criminal case not dissimilar to that of President Eisenhower’s “Operation Wetback” in 1954.
Democrats to the rest of us: Republican presidential candidates can be arrested on false charges, but Democrat judges can’t be arrested on true charges.
Tyranny anyone? If Democrats get away with this, we’re done as a country.
Nuts
Candidates and judges. False comparison.
You wouldn’t know tyranny if it kick you in the butt.
Lock ‘er up.
Correct – the correct comparison is between people who did not committ a crime – the candidate,
and those who committed one that was publicly observed by many people – the judge.
“If Democrats get away with this, we’re done as a country.”

America was done in 1860; American freedom persisted for a mere 71 years.
Then, they were called republicans and they threw the baby out with the bathwater; they threw the Constitution out with reprehensible slavery.
They subjugated once-free Americans and put America on the Progressive path toward communism, where it is today.
Clearly political “oil” and “water” would never mix without the emulsifiers of communism; the “water” required constraint in order to artificially provide success to the “oil.”
The competent resolution was created by and well known to Lincoln and existed in immigration law of the era, that being “colonization” or compassionate repatriation, which would have required prior Congressional legislation—but then Lincoln never met a law he feared.

Thank you so much Abe, oh, and Karl.
Your analysis is correct but why should anyone have any belief in a government that continues to break the law over and over again. The Trump administration is completely hypocritical,
You mean Biden. Who in fact did break the law
Biden pardoned every Democrat and communist with a name and can’t be charged himself because he is an “elderly man with a poor memory,” according to the brilliant defense attorney, Robert Hur, aka Inspector Clouseau.
“Drastic move threatening the rule of law?” “Constitutional crisis?”
Dear Senator Klobuchar:
When a judge deceives federal agents and affirmatively interferes with their duties because she disagrees with federal policy, we have a “crisis” alright–but not a constitutional crisis.
It is a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law.
When we have a judge and his wife “harboring an unlawful immigrant and an alleged TdA gang member,” we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law..
When we have people glorifying and saintly canonizing Luigi Mangione, sending him love letters in prison and donating money in support of his defense, we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law..
When we have House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-NY, and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-CA., refusing to condemn the burning, destruction, and violence against Tesla, we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law.
When we have faculty members praising and honoring fellow professors who tear down Pro-Life student displays, while delivering foul-mouthed curses and rants against the peaceful students, we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law.
When we have teachers’ unions and school boards indoctrinating students with their own political ideology, and hiding from parents a student’s “gender preference,” we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law.
When we have ABC News this morning, praising Pope Francis for honoring (and I quote) “the poor, the prisoners, the immigrants, the transgenders,” we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law.
When we have a politically-oriented and controlled NATIONAL MEDIA (including those taking public funds) that employ selective facts and subliminal messaging in story selection in order to influence viewers and listeners, we have a conspiratorial crisis that threatens the rule of law.
I could go on, but you get the point.
Well stated.
I get your point, lin, but what about the vast majority of DemoRatz ?
Answer : their hate for DJT & any rational way of thinking has them blindfolded to reality.
RICO legislative and judicial branches and un-fired portions of executive branch thus the hysteria of all that hard work.
And all the way up to the Supreme Court and into education, federal reserve , state gov…etc. cobwebs
Lin,
Great comment. Democrats truly do believe they are above the law.
Ahem. If there is any “constitutional crisis”, it was precipitated by the judge interfering with lawful activity of an executive branch function, not for her arrest for suspicion of having done so. The Minnesota senators should be lauded for again confirming the misplaced hysteria of the left.
Remember that New Mexico judge. Get a load of this.
Illegal Gang banger Protected, Housed, Armed by Democrat Judge Had Cellphone Pictures of Be—–heading Victims.
Typical dem/lib? You tell me.
Democrats new campaign slogan: We are ABOVE the law!!! Illegal immigrants FIRST!!
MS 13 FIRST.
It is good for America that democrats don’t think this is normal.
The Left is insane. These ARE NOT fringe elements. These are senators and judges flouting the laws they previously claimed to support just few short years ago. Democrats are against tyranny–until they’re for it.
Anyone who thinks people like this should be in authority over the rest of us is a total political ignoramus.
All on the left want power for the perks and prestige! Covid proved they are authoritarian by nature!
Clark
If that isn’t the truth. CV proved it
What’s not normal? An aganda-driven judge, or a Democrat being held accountable?
Jonathan: Who in DJT’s administration got the idea to send Venezuelan immigrants to the notorious concentration camp in El Salvador? Actually it was someone outside. It was Matt Gaetz. That’s right.
The Independent is reporting (4/25) that the failed nominee to lead the DOJ was invited to El Salvador in July of last year by dictator Nayib Bukele. Gaetz was given a tour of CECOT. Over dinner Bukele told Gaetz he would be willing house the immigrants. On his return Gaetz pitched the idea to Stephen Miller. Miller then told DJT about Bukele’s offer. DJT told Time magazine “One of the reasons I like it is because it would be much less expensive than our own prison system, and I think it would actually be a greater deterrent”. After Marco Rubio was installed as Secretary of State he flew to El Salvador and met with Bukele. They then entered into a contract to put the immigrants in CECOT for a yearly cost of $6 million.
The Independent points out that the deal came despite US law that bars working with foreign security forces that “face credible accusations of human rights abuses”. Bukele has authorized the use of deadly force inside CECOT. Inmates are packed together in cells without light or ventilation, open air and physical exercise. A number of inmates have died under suspicious circumstances. CECOT officials say they died from “natural causes”. Inmates are denied any communication with relatives or their lawyers. Bukele’s brutal treatment of those inside CECOT has been condemned by El Salvador’s SC. Bukele has ignored SC orders. He declared that everyone in CECOT is a “terrorist” and “will never leave”. Of course, that’s why DJT likes the dictator!
BIG nothing dennis.
Try again.
PS.
Dennis as usual, you left out the part this illegal IS a MS-13 gang member.
Two judges said he must leave the USA.
So now he’s gone and not coming back.
Also, more than 80% of us don’t care what happens to illegal gang members who terrorize our nation.
Now if this were happening to actual law-abiding citizens, that would be different – that would leave a good many dems/woke progs subject to us not caring where that assortment of lying, corrupt thugs end up either.
Garcia was never at cecot. It’s temporary also…I know they’ve all contacted their embassies. 😏
Wait. Why would any (embassies) care about a known gang member?
“Bukele has ignored SC orders.”
By SC, did you mean SCOTUS? Last time I looked, El Salvador is an independent country. US courts have no jurisdiction over any independent countries.
Democrats obey the law only when it suits them. We have 8-10 million new illegal aliens in the US because Biden & Co chose to ignore immigration laws. Biden violated his Constitutional duty as president to “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.” Art 2 §3
Blah, blah, blah!
Per US marshals’ procedure, this criminal Hannah Dugan should have been shackled at ankles when in custody and awaiting arraignment. It was not done. Someone waived this requirement.
Perhaps they couldn’t get her ankles close enough.

Interesting that Sen. Amy Klobuchar, (D-Minn) feels that it ‘normal’ for a Judge to hold Perpetrators (Eduardo Flores-Ruiz a Mexican National) in camera (the judicial suite), as though it is a “normal” way to run an underground railroad of Perps and Fugitives.
Amazing considering Klobuchar is a Yale and University of Chicago (J.D.) Graduate.
Amy Klobuchar (U.S. Senator D-Minn)
She attended public schools in Plymouth and was valedictorian at Wayzata High School,[12][13] where she was also class treasurer and secretary.[14] She received her Bachelor of Arts magna cum laude in political science in 1982 from Yale University.[15] While at Yale, Klobuchar spent time as an intern for then-Vice President and former senator Walter Mondale.[16] Her senior thesis, Uncovering the Dome,[17] a 250-page history of the ten years of politics surrounding the building of the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis, was published by Waveland Press in 1986. After Yale, Klobuchar enrolled at the University of Chicago Law School, where she served as an associate editor of the University of Chicago Law Review and earned her Juris Doctor with high honors in 1985.

DEI strikes again.
Just ask Dubya.
And after all that she’s still an obfuscating partisan with little functioning hrey matter at this point.
I think the fact that AOC has a degree in economics speaks volumes about the value of college degrees. Patronage jobs to advance soldiers in the progressive army are, also, not impressive and her entire career as a politician just illustrates her further efforts as such a soldier.
Was an economics major a requirement for this BigMouth to get the job as a … bartender????
Klubochar is a zombie inhabited by an ill spirit like the dude in the cemetary hesus met…she needs some extortion.
Burn their law licenses.
By law, a judicial officer- a judge- is entrusted to serve with a duty. To “avoid the appearance of impropriety”. Judges get removed for failing that extremely demanding standard. Why? The judiciary, from Justice of the Peace to the Supreme Court of the United States represent the thin black line that we look to for finality of dispute resolution. “We are not final because we are infallible, we are infallible because we are final.” The optics of the judicial conduct under discussion strike at the heart of confidence in the judicial branch. The appearance of impropriety standard for judges is there to keep the third leg of governance supporting the plarform.
I guess justice isn’t blind after all. Let’s face, some of us are above the law.
“Flores-Ruiz allegedly struck his roommate approximately 30 times . . .”
Don’t be hasty to judge. He has the right to full “due process” — which in the Left’s reckoning is a single, full trial for each punch.
It comes from a good place, I’m sure. He wants to believe that the left hasn’t lost their collective minds, and, if we speak nicely to them, will not do everything in their power to destroy all the great things about our country. These people are fascists who want to erase the border, censor dissent, have one party government, protect left wing criminals or those they favor based on identity, support and fund terrorism, let American military members die with hands tied behind their backs, create racial tension and political discord, mutilate children, engender mental illness, kill as many unborn babies as possible. . . and I could go on. When do we realize who these people are? When they are walking us into the gas chamber or reeducation camps.
