Today, Maggie discusses Milwaukee Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan's arrest by federal agents over alleged obstruction and concealing a person from arrest. Dugan's arrest has sent tremors through the legal community. As Maggie points out, Judge Dugan, known for her dedication to legal ethics and community service, faces up to five years in prison. The arrest sparked outrage and highlights the tension between federal immigration enforcement and state judicial independence. Some argue the move is a politically motivated intimidation tactic, undermining the judiciary's autonomy. The 10th Amendment and due process rights are central as the debate over ICE's authority in state courthouses intensifies. Supporters rally behind Dugan, decrying the chilling effect on democracy.
