[REDSTATE] As we’ve seen for the past three years, vast swaths of the nation’s judiciary are in opposition to the rule of law. In the federal courts, we are seeing judges interject themselves into mundane and banal executive branch actions simply to obstruct the ability of the Trump administration to govern because those judges oppose the policy decisions by the administration. These decisions are routinely overturned on appeal but the net effect is depriving the administration of months or years of potential actions. At the state level, we’re seeing state judges in lockstep with progressive state governments in trying to hamstring the ability of federal agencies to perform their duties. The chief target is Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) which has the responsibility for enforcing immigration laws within the interior of the United States.
ICE has discovered...despite propaganda asserting that illegals are more law-abiding than any other demographic group...that the best place to round up illegals is at courthouses. Routinely, agents scan the docket, identify illegals, and have agents in the courtroom ready to take them into custody when their legal affairs are concluded. This has led the chief justice of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,’s Supreme Court, Tani Cantil-Sakauye, to write a letter to the Attorney General and the head of DHS demanding that courtrooms be considered some kind of sacred space for illegals. And it isn’t just in California.
Last year, a Massachusetts judge, Shelley Richmond Joseph, connived with one of her staff, a guy named Wesley MacGregor, to slip an illegal out of the courthouse via the judge’s private entrance because she knew that ICE agents were waiting to pick up the defendant once his case was adjudicated. At that point, the Department of Justice decided it was tired of playing silly games, so she was indicted on felony charges and is currently awaiting trial.
