Attorney General Pam Bondi makes her 78th appearance on Fox News to outline the reasoning why Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by FBI agents earlier today for interfering with the arrest of a criminal illegal alien.
This is the second judge arrested for harboring and assisting a criminal illegal alien. WATCH:
WISCONSIN (AP) – The FBI on Friday arrested a Milwaukee judge accused of helping a man evade immigration authorities, escalating a clash between the Trump administration and the judiciary over the Republican president’s sweeping immigration crackdown.
FBI Director Kash Patel announced on social media the arrest of Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan, who he said “intentionally misdirected” federal agents away from a man they were trying to take into custody at her courthouse last week.
“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 wrote.
Dugan was taken into custody by the FBI on Friday morning on the courthouse grounds, according to U.S. Marshals Service spokesperson Brady McCarron. She appeared briefly in federal court in Milwaukee later Friday before being released from custody. Her next court appearance is May 15.
Dugan is charged with “concealing an individual to prevent his discovery and arrest” and obstructing or impeding a proceeding. She’s accused of escorting the man, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, and his lawyer out of the courtroom through the jury door on April 18 as a way to help avert his arrest, according to an FBI affidavit filed in court.
The affidavit suggests that Dugan was alerted to the presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in the courthouse by her clerk, who was informed by an attorney that they appeared to be in the hallway.
The affidavit describes Dugan as “visibly angry” over the arrival of immigration agents in the courthouse and says that she pronounced the situation “absurd” before leaving the bench and retreating to her chambers. It says she and another judge later approached members of the arrest team inside the courthouse, displaying what witnesses described as a “confrontational, angry demeanor.” (read more)


I can think of a few others that need to be arrested too.
This is a great start
They will be.
I certainly hope so.
It begins.
President Trump is ready for the skirmish with the Judiciary.
Very much doubt that – he doesn’t have the support required from Republicans or the right at large.
Trump has the overwhelming support of the American people. Which is all that really counts.
This doesn’t get fixed without a fight. No sense waiting.
Patrick Henry.
BINGO
Unless the elections are stolen.
Do you believe that the only way Democrats win big in 2026 and 2028 is if elections are stolen?
No, he knows it.
Exactly. If they don’t fix the elections all this is temporary. Voter ID and proof of US citizenship mean nothing until mail in voting, ballot harvesting and voting machines are outlawed.
Been screaming this from the mountaintop
Congress failed to legislate over a rogue judiciary who have paralyzed the executive’s efforts to secure the nation
TRIFECTA—> P. E. A. D.

They’ll get in line…
85 million patriots!! Are with # 47…
Skirmish? This is a lot worse than skirmish. All this will be for nothing unless the “republican” representatives pass a law for Federal Election Reform before the mid terms and preferably NOW!! Give the commie states plenty of time to change their voting bull crap.
Paper ballots and no machine reading them.
All ballots have a serial number, all money has a different number so why not, you print them, remember, learn to code..
Absentee ballots for legitimate reasons. Not, I’m afraid to catch a cold or my mom said the hot pockets are ready. Wear your masks, let us know who you are.
Mail in or dropped off ballots are not counted after the poll closes. Period!!
Final results in 24 hours.
California results took almost a month to finalize and races were flipped, what a surprise…
If this is not made a law, not an executive order that could be cancelled by the next puppet resident, then this is done after the midterm elections.
LMAO – and from what I am reading on other sites quoting individuals in the know; “many other arrests, going back and including Russia Russia Russia and J-6 are in the works”.
Faith my friends; TRUMP will move heaven and earth to keep his promises to us and the wrong doers, and I believe he has assembled a team committed to doing just that.
Hegseth is housecleaning at the pentagon. Hard to believe Susan Benghazi Rice had a position there and glad to see she’s being terminated.
yes saw that too.
It was shocking to see she was still there. The WSJ has an incredible daily attack on Hegseth, so even without this latest move it is obvious he is on the right track. When he is finished there move him to DOJ.
yes , and then the FBI . They need a lesson from the Mighty Maids Housecleaning Crew
Dan Caldwell, four days ago in interview
with Tucker, said that Rice…and others …were
still involved at Pentagon.
😳 😳
And now we have terminations.
I don’t believe in coincidences.🤷♀️💁♀️
The interview is worth watching…..
The Pentagon Didn’t Fire Dan Caldwell Over Leaks. They Fired Him for Opposing War With Iran.
I hope you are correct. The natives are restless and tired of waiting.
47 is a doer and a magnificent builder! Never quits! Gracias Dios
But but but Pam just appears on FOX news (78th appearance) and Kash is in over his head!!!!
Dear me, Americans and their need for instant gratification.
As is most of America and in our case the clock is ticking fast
Or we just realize the need to keep up the pressure, due to limited time ahead, and the well-known unwillingness of the establishment to confront the establishment…
“Or we just realize the need to keep up the pressure,…………………”
-Saul Alinsky: Rules for Radicals;
#4 “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”
#8 “Keep the pressure on.”
#10 “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”
If the FBI and DOJ can successfully pull off “Operation Black Robes,” it will go a bit of the way toward redeeming all the trust they threw away during their lawfare incarnations. They still have far to go, but only so much can be done in four years. 😉

Time to replace Lady Justice’s blindfold and restore the balance of her scales…
With respect, the US was an active WW2 combatant from Dec 1941 to beginning of Sept 1945 — a few days less than 47 months.
A *tremendous* amount can be accomplished our nation in 4 years.
‘by our nation’. It should have read ‘by our nation!
I despise typing on a phone…
You can edit your comment if caught in time.
And haven’t refreshed the page.
Unfortunately the enemy is inside the gates -a ‘fifth column,’
As they used to say a long time ago…
Hannibal ante protis.
Gosh, that’s not an entitled attitude or anything!
Trust us!
One of Bannon’s guests says he met with Blondi and Patel and was told that they were going ahead with lots of criminal indictments soon.
I am more interested in firing all FBI, ATF, and DOJ agents. Don’t care about jail time.
Lawfare hurts whether or not you lose your job.
That was Mike Davis. He seems pretty optimistic, but long time treepers are a jaded bunch, we’re the repeatedly abused conservatives.
And yes, I am from Missouri.
The same Mike Davis who was working behind the scenes in California with Hameet Dhillon to split the delegates in the primary so that Ron DeSantis could thwart Donald Trump’s attempt to win the whole state and cement the nomination…
what are you talking about.
Vikingmom is correct !
Is the assumption that his loyalty was to DeSantis or to the ‘24 republican candidate? I can excuse him if he felt Trump was damaged goods and could not win, but if electing RDS was the goal then he can’t be trusted.
Do a keyword search for Sundance’s archive articles on the top of his website.
Easy peasy.
Yep, the same. Politics is the art of usimg power. Nothing more, nothing less.
Thank you for this Ms. Vikingmom…I forgot about Mike Davis and his boy Ron Disaster…
You are right about him. He is a deep state mouthpiece
Davis has joined the tick-tock crowd.
Supporting DeSantis says nothing about whether or not he’s to be trusted in the current context. Apples and oranges.
Never trust a Never-Trumper!
Huummmmm….
I find Mike Davis to be a fast talking “legal” reporter on WarRoom, while fund raising for his 501(C)4 Article III Project. Not sure what he has really accomplished, but I believe he got Harmeet Dhillon confirmed as Assistant AG for the Civil Rights Division. I guess the hatchet was buried!
Mike Davis did a podcast with Laura Logan. He talks a good game but maybe he just says all the right things.
From the Shomi tribe?
Sally, Why not BOTH?
Sally, I’m 100% in agreement. A year from now I want a majority of the corrupt deep state agents and employees gone. Then Trump’s people can start looking at charges for the worst of the lot while they also start to work on the other 50% that still need firing.
I sure do. Examples need to be made to make sure evildoers learn to behave, to say the least!
Maybe blondi and Kash read treehouse?
Curious to find out if the FBI is on the trail of what judges are in the financial pocket of the cartels and/or these international terrorist (gangs) organizations – and how close are they to closing in on these federal circuit judges who either personally or have family members in those group’s financial pockets.
That would be one reason to send the violent gang members to a jail in El Salvador.
Let the El Salvadorans do the interrogations and pass the info to ICE.
“FBI is on the trail of what judges are in the financial pocket of the cartels and/or these international terrorist (gangs)”
It seems to me that is what we are seeing with these arrests of those judges who outrageously risked it all to help murderous gang members.
Add that to their frantic behavior over the MS13 “Maryland Man” who in previous discussions was let off with a “traffic violation” while human smuggling and he may have been driving the van used in an assassination. Some have implied possible links to retribution for allowing Seth Rich to make it to the hospital alive and talking before a visit from Donna Brazil.
I don’t know how much of this will pan out, but if they are going to be linking up these gang members directly to Holder and Fast and Furious, and the Seth Rich assasination with the van driven by Abrego Garcia while human smuggling- to judges owned by the cartels….….. then get me more popcorn!!!
These dots seem to be connecting into what might be the biggest RICCO ever!!!
The pattern going back to Al Capone and beyond is to threaten and compromise one or two judges in a court system and then use them to get what you want done. That sounds like what was going on behind the first arrest.
This latest one looks like an ideologue that had been entitled by lack of consequences for lawfare participants. Like bears and foxes getting emboldened when they figure out nobody is going to shoot them in New Jersey.
I don’t think it will take too much to get those that are just stupid and emboldened to scurry back in their holes.
Best possible message to send to to the entire judiciary and legal world.
“on good behavior” means exactly that for federal judges and the same standard should apply to state and local judiciary. “…The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour.”
Some argue that the “good behavior clause” doesn’t really mean holding judges to a higher standard. Balderdash! Judges should be held to the absolute highest standards of behavior.
Indeed.
These arrests also create a big problem for Dem operatives who like to attack PDJT’s deportation of alien criminals as a violation of the rule of law.
The comebacks practically write themselves: “Oh, you mean disrespect for the rule of law like Judge Dugan and Judge Cano demonstrated?”
These judges are not above the law but they do pretend to believe the are.
The NM judge destroyed the gang member’s cell phone with photos of beheaded victims on it. Brutal. Third world. Violent.
https://x.com/greg_price11/status/1915818920923074954
Destruction of evidence, tsk tsk.
Did this judge believe themselves to be above the law? Certainly acted like it.
Throw the book at the judge. Obstruction of justice, aiding and abetting an illegal alien to evade authorities, etc. Should be a fairly open and shut case to prosecute.
Yup. And now get going with the sanctuary city leaders.
Destroying the cell phone doesn’t get rid of the pictures. They can easily be recovered by tech geeks.. Maybe Elon’s crew can get on it.
Might we put the NSA to some actual good use, and re- access those photos?
The Judiciary is busy burning down their Reputation, Respect & Authority. They don’t care. Roberto has made that clear.
Perhaps they will consider sending her to GITMO for interim hold and final adjudication.
It is good to lead the stories on Bondi with #78. The Epstein papers are on her desk.
Trump’s got ’em, too
What a coinkydink!
I miscounted. I had her at 80
One day soon the Death Cult will roll out of the fart sack and realize there is no one to shield them anymore.
They can only destroy the Republic by exploiting the protection afforded them as caretakers of said Republic.
If y’all ain’t helping us you’re hurting us. Why would anyone continue to get special treatment if they can’t be trusted?
It’s a crime, prosecute.
“ … judge’s obstruction created increased danger to the public.”
Her behavior did exacerbate the danger to the public while ICE was having to chase the perp, but who’s going to be blamed when something happens to a member of the public in one of these situations? We’ve all seen the hysteria ginned up when something untoward happens during a police chase.
It’s the feel-good story of the week!!!
Time to crack a Peroni!!!
The FBI is now arresting Democratic judges at the state level for violating immigration law.
The Democrats really did pick the stupidest hill to die on.
IIRC, no one is above the law.
/s
Wisconsin has an obstruction law. Let’s see if the state charges her.
“If ANY JUDGE anywhere can BLOCK EVERY presidential order EVERYWHERE, we DO NOT have a democracy, we have TYRANNY of the judiciary.” – Elon Musk
Nah, don’t you know judges have been crowned “kings” and ‘queens” these days. Want to know who the real dictators are, just look up at all the activist judges thwarting the article II powers.
i do not remember which spanish speaking country a newly elected president first outlawed gangs and removed the judges to slow down the cartels
Bukele of El Salvador.
Currently a terrific ally in the effort to remove the monsters here.
Presidente Bukele is performing well but keep in mind that he was a member of the FMLN.
Okay, how about bloasberg, xinis, alikhan, berman-jackson, beryl-howell, chutkan, etc. As Clint Eastwood said in “Dirty Harry”, “Must be something we can get’em on”. I would go through all these turd judge’s dirty laundry, bound to come up with something to make them resign in disgrace.
Better one is “a man’s got to know his limitations” for these crooked judges…
My favorite movie quote.
“Magnum Force” (1973)
What about Boasberg and the crazy MD judge? They just as evil and perhaps worse?
I have no idea as to the veracity of this video clip but it, 30 min, ties several judges, starting with Roberts, to George Soros.
On the face of it, it does have credibility . Strange decisions from roberts and other judges suggests there is more here than meets the eye. Of course, i could find no other reports in MSM on this issue.
“Of course, i could find no other reports in MSM on this issue.”
No surprise there.
Soros has his fingers in a lot of pies.

My browser quit twice in the middle of the video. I had to restart the computer to finish the video. First time this has ever happened . Yandex browser and Brave just did not want to play the entire vid.
One can hope this video has validity. If this situation occurred then I can’t believe Pres Trump would be heading to the Popes funeral. He would be in DC waiting for congress to be convened just for this occasion. There would be fireworks going on.
Now there is some swift justice. Well done. Thank you!
She need to quit hanging around Fox New. Prosecute a few real criminals – just a couple of high profile criminals that matter. That would be a reassuring gesture.
My cynical take: PR event to brush up the triad Bondi/Kash/Bongino who are being hit extremely hard by MAGA…well, at least until 2 days ago when clearly a memo went out to “influencers” to get back on the MAGA train and refrains of “it takes time to put together indictments” “we want to make sure it is done right”…which is the 2025 version of “Trust the plan”…it was all so obviously transparent it was laughable…literally 2 days ago, pitch forks out until GFY “Harmeet is the bomb” Mike Davis went on on Bannon’s show and proclaimed Bondi will kick ass very soon!!! now we have a literal show replete with Fox new appearance and 180s from MAGA “influencers” and arrests of a few low hanging fruit of liberal judges (and they are VERY low hanging fruit from a judge perspective) …. Would love to be proven wrong but my hopium supply is out….
not a PR event. but Bondi’s appearance on Fox was.
Actually, the plan turned out pretty good.
You call nobody being held accountable good ?
Well said. I’ve noticed the influencers are going nuts trying to explain that the three amigos aren’t doing anything.
I just roll my eyes and except reality that they are there to protect the deep state and not the American people.
Clearly there was a memo that went out this week…people were all hot earlier this week, then suddenly (Weds?) everyone started singing from the same hymnyl..give them time, we want these cases airtight..OMG it was literally straight from MSM talking point method…I was really disgusted…and right on cue these 2 arrests and now “see, told ya?”…they really think we are stupid …
“In their view, America is a democracy, and judicial supremacy cannot be consistently combined with popular rule. “The judiciary, led by the Supreme Court, is in the vanguard of the elite imposing nonmajority values and policies on the country. They are, as Jefferson said, the ‘miners and sappers of democracy.
“The traditional view was that the separation of powers made the legislature and executive responsible for change and the Court the guardian of continuity and stability. The Court, however, over the past thirty years, has made itself the major agent for change–one that operates without democratic check to accomplish ends that could not be achieved by democratic process”

Hopefully, we start arresting Tyson chicken plant managers for helping
undocumented immigrants attain employment and evade arrest.
Hit the whole meatpacking industry.
It is scary that 5 people did not get my sarcasm.
ICE has been hitting quite a few
businesses….and the people who
have set up shell companies that
hide the fact about illegals working
for them.
And the owners…they are getting charged
and arrested.
Tyson is a big company their shell companies
will take awhile. More money to hide the
shell companies.
And the links are just a few recent examples.
Notice the charges….
ICE investigation results in US seizing assets related to $126 million illegal staffing, money laundering case | ICE
We are talking about some big bucks!
Florida businessman sentenced for migrant labor employment scheme, payroll tax evasion, worker death | ICE
Perfect example of the shell companies
Florida woman ordered to pay $3+ million for wire, tax fraud scheme | ICE
Boomers watch Fox. 🙁
Boomer here, I don’t.
Thank you. I’m a PRE-boomer, and have not watched Fox or any other “news” (as in three-letter) outlet for well over thirty years.
That’s an ignorant thing to post.
Gotta manufacture division and sow hate.
That’s how they’ve always done it.
what is a boomer?
The ones who sent men to the moon, ans so forth…
No Boomer would have yet attained the age of 25 by the time Armstrong landed on the moon, so very little involvement in the venture to the moon.
But, other neat things, yeah.
This very same kind of crime happened several years ago in Newtonville (part of Newton) MA.
https://www.boston.com/news/local-news/2024/12/04/judge-shelley-joseph-accused-misconduct-allegedly-allowing-suspect-escape-ice-agents/
“Joseph was suspended in April 2019 in light of her federal indictment on obstruction of justice charges. However, federal prosecutors dropped the charges in 2022 after Joseph agreed to refer herself to the Commission on Judicial Conduct. She was reinstated later that year and is now a judge in the Boston Municipal Court. ”
This was ridiculous. One thing for sure: Pam Bondi was NOT the AG.
I hope these current liberal judges are going to get much worse sentences.
2022? That would have been one Merrick Garland.
be nice to know how many of these judges are catholic.
Doesn’t Jim Jordan chair the House Judiciary Committee? I think I saw him on a milk carton.
So then he has lots of practice & experience formulating “strongly worded letters”.
And can facilitate a Committee meeting like it’s no one’s business.
America does not need “strongly worded letters.” America today needs strongly woven gallows nooses. When American people begin to see lawless judges “swing,” they might BEGIN to recover some respect for our system of justice.
Ecclesiastes 8:11 KJV
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
I find that I have to use that verse too much.
Homan said in an interview today that this signals a change to how obstruction of LE will be enforced.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way; PDJT has will and grit, he may have to prod his supporting cast.
This judge was pretty flagrant.
Canons of Judicial Ethics prohibit judges from becoming “embroiled”; prohibit them from advocacy.
Judges, upon taking office, take the OATH to uphold all laws, and to protect the Constitution from ALL enemies, foreign and domestic.
This woman was completely out of order and the Judicial Commission (or whatever entity governs judicial conduct in WI) needs to immediately commence proceedings to remove her from the bench. Which, also means, her license to practice law is suspended.
Judge Arrested by Federal Agents After Allegedly Aiding Illegal Alien
“Federal authorities arrested Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan Friday morning.
Dugan, 65, is being charged with two felonies for allegedly helping an illegal immigrant to avoid arrest in her courtroom last week, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.
“Brady McCarron, spokesman for U.S. Marshals Service in Washington, D.C., said Dugan is being charged with two federal felony counts: obstruction and concealing an individual. McCarron also confirmed Dugan was arrested at about 8 a.m. at the Milwaukee County Courthouse,” the outlet noted….”

More details.
This judge was in blatant disregard for the law.

“There are more than 11 million illegal immigrants here, with millions more coming. Yet the government consistently refuses to enforce the immigration laws of the United States.
Why should those Americans whose ancestors created, fought, bled and died to preserve America not believe they and their children are being dispossessed of a country that was their patrimony and without their consent?
When did the country vote to convert the America we grew up in into the Third World country our descendants will inherit in 2042? Pat Buchanan
(The 1965 Immigration Act which radically changed the demographics of legal immigration was also never voted on by the American people)
Oh but Ted the swimmer Kennedy promised that it wouldn’t change the demographics of the country. How could people have been so stupid?
A judge being handcuffed – I love it!!
More please, this is what I voted for, don’t stop with two scalps.
Guaranteed that hundreds of judges are on the take by gangs and cartels.
Silver or Lead I think they say….
Plata o plomo.
Drag these people through every court they can think of.
Dugan is an Executive Director of “Catholic Charities” in her hood. That should have disqualified her long ago for having anything to do with cases involving illegals.
Update: That may be past tense.
There are many “levels” of Deep State Criminal Syndica e players starting with the foot soldiers of Antifa, BLM, Illegal gans (MS-13, TDA, etc), county, city, state judges, governors, Congressional members and unelected political members are working against Trump to retain and/or regain power. There is a major house cleaning going on presently and once Trump is ready to go forward with massive arrests with the American people behind him. He is eposing ALL the corruption within our country. This will be MOAB whan Trump completes the major sting operation.
MA remembers Judge Shelley Joseph who conspired in 2019(?) with her bailiff, the defense attorney, and possibly the prosecutor to release an illegal through a side door while knowing an ICE agent was waiting to pick the defendant up for deportation.
Charges were filed and MA taxpayers were unknowingly paying for the crooked judge’s attorney. Once that bs was stopped ($100+k in fees), the attorney announced he would continue pro-bono.
The black baillif didn’t enjoy such luxuries and took retirement (I believe he was found guilty in his role).
Shelley Joseph ultimately prevailed and is still a judge, now in Boston Municipal Court.
This is just a sideshow. When are they going to start arresting fbi / doj officials?
I pray this is where the dominoes start to fall…
Where’s the Epstein list? Crossfire Hurricane? Norm Eisen indictment?
I want to see AOC get arrested for helping illegals avoid law enforcement , if that happens then I would be impressed .
It is very likely there are Judges in Colorado who have protected these criminals too.
