Judge accused of helping immigrant evade ICE wants a trial date as case is 'hanging over her head' -- and is now delayed

[EndlessWire]

13. Judge has a point

If he dismisses the case, all rump can do is appeal, which he'll do one way or another. Her motion is an immunity defense?

This case is important to us all, as handcuffing a judge and doing a perp walk from her courtroom is an invasion of the judicial system which rump is trying to control. We can't let him do that.

It is unique in that the Judge that will grant or deny her motion is himself a judge with some idea of his own immunity, too. There's nowhere Dugan can go where she would not be judged by another of her peers. I guess the RW SC can look forward to twisting the law again.

I dunno. Put me on the jury. I think that she was in command of her courtroom, in command of the immigrant guy, and had a right to tell him which door to go out. She had a right to do that, especially if the paperwork was not in order. It's not her fault that ICE was incompetent, but it's her job to know--at the very least, she had a right to maintain order in her own courtroom.

Kudos to this Judge who had the guts to tell ICE they didn't have it together.
