Hold onto your hat because I’m about to break some unbelievable news: two Democrat activist judge are actually going to face consequences for their illegal (in my view, treasonous) behavior. Both of them were caught hiding, or helping to escape, illegal aliens. That’s right. They were both on the side of illegal aliens and tried to help them evade arrest and deportation.
First up is Milwaukee County Circuit judge Hannah Dugan, who found herself in handcuffs on April 25. Why? Because she tried to help an illegal alien–a defendant in her courtroom–escape detection by immigration officers. According to a complaint from the U.S. Dept. of Justice, judge Dugan was trying a case in which illegal Mexican alien Eduardo Flores-Ruiz was being tried for battery. Judge Dugan was apparently so upset at contemplating that the border jumper would be deported that, according to the DOJ, she led the defendant and his lawyer through a back door so he could evade federal agents in the lobby waiting to arrest him.
FBI director Kash Patel said, “We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest.”
Next up is a former magistrate judge in New Mexico, Joel Cano, along with his wife, Nancy. The government claims judge Cano was hiding a member of the violent Venezualan gang Tren de Aragua gang, another illegal alien, in his own home. A photo from Fox News alleges to show Joel Cano and his family hanging out in the kitchen with the gang member.
Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared on Fox News and described the brazen lawbreaking alleged against judge Dugan. She said, “She comes back into the courtroom. You’re not going to believe this. Takes the defendant and the defense attorney back in her chambers. Takes them out a private exit and tells them to leave. While the state prosecutor and victims of domestic violence are sitting in the courtroom.”
This shouldn’t be predictable because it’s insane, but it is predictable: the Democrats are losing their everloving minds. The very idea that a judge could be arrested for breaking the law seems to be entirely new to them.
Here’s Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders:
Wisconsin’s Rep Gwen Moore is also having difficulty understanding the idea that judges cannot break the law, too.
Here’s a sampling of reaction on X/Twitter.
