Live updates: Judge accused of helping man evade immigration agents is released after arrest - April 25, 2025 MILWAUKEE (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 Dugan is 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 FBl affidavit filed in court. The affidavit quotes the courtroom deputy as having heard Dugan say words to the effect of "Wait, come with me" before ushering them into a non-public area of the courthouse. The action was unusual, the affidavit says, because "only deputies, juries, court staff, and in-custody defendants being escorted by deputies used the back jury door. Defense attorneys and defendants who were not in custody never used the jury door."

Milwaukee Judge Arrested For Helping An Immigrant Evade ICE At Courthouse. 👇🏼

We never arrest judges for taking lavish private jet trips in exchange for ruling against settled law.

Only judges who lend help to the lower class.

She's a HERO ✊🏼 in a corrupted class system.

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." She asked one of the officers if they had a judicial warrant and was told that the warrant was instead administrative. After a back-and-forth over the warrant, the affidavit says, she demanded that the arrest team speak with the chief judge and led them away from the courtroom. After directing the arrest team to the chief judge's office, investigators say Dugan returned to the courtroom was and was heard saying words to the effect of "wait, come with me" before ushering Flores- Ruiz and his lawyer through a jury door into a non-public area of the courthouse. The action was unusual, the affidavit says, because "only deputies, juries, court staff, and in-custody defendants being escorted by deputies used the back jury door. Defense attorneys and defendants who were not in custody never used the jury door."

She's a hero. Full stop.

The arrest IS absurd. Full stop.

In 2019, a Massachusetts judge was arrested for the same thing & the charges were dropped. She was referred to an agency that investigates misconduct. 🧵

yepp, this hostile takeover of our government is too much to wrap your head around.

The West has been in denial about censorship for far too long It is time for Western societies to stop lecturing others and open their eyes to their own realities of repression.

"It is quite ironic to see a decade later, the political and economic elites of Western countries trade accusations of censorship, while in the background actively working to suppress or distort freedom of expression."

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
