      That’s just the official language. They may not kill her, but they are going to remove anyone that gets in their way is what this says to me.

        They’re going to use her as an example for the justification to arrest other judges as well. This is unprecedented and is going to lead to open violence in the streets.

            Fuck off with this rhetoric, please. While we aren’t going around torching ICE/cop vehicles and rioting, it doesn’t mean we aren’t doing anything at all. From protesting with millions across the country and world, to gun purchases and training, to local community outreach and support, things are not stationary.

            The world news media is focused on the administration and pussyfooting around the lies and manipulation the administration keeps spewing, there’s no media clicks to be had for preparation stories. It’s not to the point of violence in the streets, yet, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t preparing for the possibility.

            You wanna be shitty toward the American government as a Canadian, I’m all for it. But please don’t conflate this administration with the American population at large. We are not our government and despite no news coverage, we are not idle.

      It doesn’t have to match. It just has to rhyme.

          If it’s true. These could be manufactured charges. I don’t trust Patel or the Trump administration to be honest about that.

          Patel in his tweet wrote that the FBI believes Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away” from Ruiz as agents were attempting to arrest him at her courthouse.

          “Thankfully our agents chased down the perp on foot and he’s been in custody since, but the Judge’s obstruction created increased danger to the public,” Patel said in the post.

          And they all clapped at the end.

              That’s if they give the judge due process, and don’t just immediately claim she’s guilty- kinda like they’re doing to people they’re deporting already. Not a stretch to just skip her due process at this point.

                  And we can ignore the clear pattern of behavior this admin has already shown so far, but that doesn’t make what they are doing any less real; what’s your point?

                  How? They’re taking people with no due process and deporting them already. Why would her being a judge make her position any different, if they are skipping due process again? This administration has shown that they don’t care about due process- they just make an accusation, and then go straight to “guilty until proven innocent.”
