I think the only thing that is going to get any attention is throwing people in jail. But I'm not sure the courts believe they could make it stick.
Except that who will do the throwing in jail? All federal law enforcement is under the DOJ, even the US Marshalls who typically are the law enforcement for the courts.

Go after the individual ICE agents and hold them accountable. I'm tired of this BS with them wearing masks and hiding who they are as they kidnap people and don't provide due process.
Trump should get on a plane to El Salvador and get that Maryland dad back. Trump is not doing enough, and it's a lie that he can't get him back.
Judges are free to try, but there is a little provision in the Constitution that's called the Supremacy Clause.
Correct.
.Gov will likely ignore this “judge.”
But should he persist, he could be federally charged with conspiring to keep an illegal, removable, alien in the United States, or other federal offenses, including obstruction of justice.

I don't remember how immunity works for gov't workers in this sort of situation - can an officer be sent to jail for doing something like this?
Maybe this is exactly why they are wearing masks. The claim it is for fear of retribution from people but maybe it is to escape justice. We all know everyone else will use the amnesia defense. Trump has made forgetfulness and managerial incompetence cool again.

I really hope so. Everyone needs to stick together on this and say no more nonsense~ we follow the laws in America.
The laws are being followed whether you like them or not.

Anonymous wrote:So, let’s get this straight: a person involved in a criminal trial but otherwise free to walk around somehow becomes immune from arrest for anything else while the trial is pending?
And [what appears to be] a state court judge can find a federal agent in contempt of state court for exercising his federal arrest authority?
Sounds pretty weak to me.

ICE agent Brian Sullivan grabbed Wilson Martell-Lebron last week as he was leaving court for lunch. He was in the middle of a trial for falsifying a drivers license application. Because LeBron was denied to a fair trial the judge had to dismiss the case.
“It's a case of violating a defendant's right to present at trial and confront witnesses against him," Judge Mark Summerville said from the bench. “It couldn't be more serious.”
LeBron’s attorney said “There is no greater injustice in my mind than the government arresting someone, without identifying themselves, and preventing them from exercising their constitutionally guaranteed right to a jury trial.”
Two district attorneys in Massachusetts sued the federal government in 2019 seeking to prevent arrests at courthouses but dropped the case when former President Joe Biden took office. Who knew the cockroaches would be back.
Under the expedited removal process, immigrants who have been in the country illegally for less than two years and are apprehended can be deported almost immediately without going through a court hearing. Why are we wasting resources and time of the judge when they can just be picked up by ice and booted out of the country? There are plenty of citizens that are committing crimes and need due process.
