"Holder told CNN that Patel's social media post violates this policy.

"Whatever the issues with what the judge did, they're trying to maximize intimidation," Holder said in a statement to CNN.

"The arrest is the point," Craig Mastantuono, an attorney for Dugan, told CNN in an interview. "It's a clear departure of the policy. There was no threat to public safety. She was not afforded the chance to come in and offer her side of the story."

First they came for the Judges... aw, what's the use??

Trumpers want their Krazy Kult King, not the Law, to be ruling this country.

The arrest was the point when Democrat did it as well. That is why the Dems called up CNN and arranged a swat team to arrest Roger Stone. So, save your liberal tears because YOU created this.

Dugan was arrested by the FBI on Friday and is facing two charges for obstruction and concealing an individual from arrest.

The Gestapo did the same thing to anyone they discovered to be hiding Jews during Nazi Germany.

So? I mean thats what they did to the J6's that was the point, it wasn't about justice.

Hopefully she gets solitary confinement.

1LumpyFascist, you're confusing people attacking the Capitol Building in hopes of stopping certification and hanging Mike Pence, with a judge protecting people from a fascist government.

Quite different.

I met a man, an American soldier, who came upon Mussolini and his mistress while they were still hanging.

Mussolini when he was still alive came to be viewed by his people as a vicious clown.

Let those who have allegedly nicked ears, hear.

Do you remember the crime that Trumpy committed?

Do you also remember the entire previous year of Trumpy lying and obstructing justice and the NA struggles to recover classified government property?? Do you remember the FBI investigation? Do you remember the grand jury indictment?

You ought to. Trumpy had his entire case tried in the court of public (maga) opinion.

I remember the "crime" that both Trump and Biden supposedly committed. I especially remember the part where Biden didn't get arrested or have his home raided on TV.

How's that working out for you and the DNC?

"I especially remember the part where Biden didn't get arrested or have his home raided on TV."

You mean like Pence?

The only reason Trump's home was raided was he was lying about possessing classified documents, for over a year, had lied about what was returned, forced lawyers to commit purjury on his behalf, and enlisted underlings to obstruct justice by hiding documents AFTER Trump said he'd turned them all over.

Of course, you don't have the class to admit Trump was treated differently because of Trump's behavior. And Biden wasn't charged, for the same reason Pence wasn't charged, and for the same reason Trump WAS charged.

I can't wait to see photos of the googly eyed MFer's perp walk on social media, because it's coming. His cabinet all feel invincible, like they're masters of the universe, and they are not. Dotard's immunity is only for official acts. His latest grift of selling access through his meme coin is obviously illegal and could never be considered an official act, except by the two Faux Spews hosts on SCOTUS. ------ just deported US citizens, illegal, Kegbreath sharing battle plans with his wife and brother, illegal. Etc.

@#1 ... they're trying to maximize intimidation," Holder said ...

Well, yeah.

That seems to be the purpose behind this action.

Intimidation of the Judicial Branch.

That aside, what she did may or may not have been wrong.

I've seen varying reports, some that seem to vary from the DoJ version.

But my view, at this point, with what I know, what she did may have been legally wrong. But morally wrong? I'm not yet convinced on that aspect. A peaceful protest against a wannabe dictatorship?

So, I'll let that aspect run out and be decided in the Courts.

But I have to ask, was the perp walk appropriate, or more for the media coverage that Pres Trump so revels in?

Unlike the innocent vast majority of Jan 6 defendants this officer of the court is likely guilty of obstruction. She's deserving of a lengthy stay in the DC ---- hole jail awaiting trial in isolation.

I disagree with the former (strongly, but that's another thread), and mostly agree with the latter.

Yeah, this Judge made a statement.

I'd proffer that she likely knew what she was doing, why she did it, and the possible consequences.

Yet, she stood up to Pres Trump's Gestapo nonetheless.

Why do so many Democrats love judges that love crime and criminals and illegals and hate a peaceful law abiding America? Democrats have never supported and proposed policies that are good for all American citizens. We have had a real problem created and the only way it will be solved is absconding with the foreign criminal element and those that support them over and above real Americans.
