It’s big news: Judge Hannah Dugan, a Milwaukee County circuit judge, was arrested today because she allegedly assisted an illegal alien in escaping when ICE agents showed up at the courthouse to arrest him. If you’re like me, you’re not surprised that a leftist judge broke the law. Instead, you’re extremely surprised that the federal government is making her pay the price for her illegal conduct.
The underlying allegations are simple:
In a criminal complaint, the U.S. Justice Department said Hannah Dugan, a Milwaukee County circuit judge, refused to turn over the man after immigration agents showed up to arrest him in her courtroom on April 18, and that she tried to help him evade arrest by allowing him to exit through a jury door.
SNIP
Dugan has now joined Judge Jose “Joel” Cano, the recently resigned New Mexico judge, and his wife, Nancy, who were arrested for allegedly knowingly harboring in their home an illegal alien who is a Tren de Aragua member.
Because I am accustomed to morally corrupt leftist judges, having practiced law in the San Francisco Bay Area for 30 years, it doesn’t surprise me in the slightest that these judges, assuming the allegations are true, blatantly violated federal law. After all, as we’ve seen for years now, leftist judges will not apply the law to favored defendants, whether because the defendants belong to a Democrat protected class (race, sexual identity, etc.) or because the judges disagree with the law.
Given that fact, why would they balk when it came to their own conduct and laws with which they disagree? So, no surprise there.
I’m also unsurprised at the way the news is being greeted on the left, which is that it’s just so wrong that she was arrested.

The “big surprise,” by the way, according to this writer, is that she was arrested.
How many hundreds more corrupt judges are there? A s**t load!
These people are supposed to follow the law and be impartial. They take an oath. They’ve turned the judicial system into an ugly farce.
BRILLIANT!
Shoganai is a Japanese phrase that translates to “it cannot be helped” or “nothing can be done about it,” expressing acceptance of situations beyond one’s control. It reflects a cultural attitude of enduring hardship with dignity, similar to phrases like “c’est la vie” in French.
angry people commit illegal acts every day so I’m hoping that you don’t mean she should get a pass because she was angry.

Get back to me in about 3 years. We'll see how many former and current top government officials, who looted hundreds of billions from the taxpayers, are arrested and prosecuted.
Or is that “Shikata ga nai” ?
WTF?

Uh... hello?

The Japanese phrase shikata ga nai, or “it can’t be helped,” indicates cultural norms over which one has little control... This notion of suffering in part stems from shikata ga nai: failing to follow cultural norms and social conventions led to a life of little choice but endurance of suffering.[2]
HEY- I’m still trying to learn Pashtu...
