Another unforeseen question arises in the error, sorry, era of trump

Minnesota Claims the ICE Surge Is Illegal. A Judge Will Hear Arguments on Monday.​

A federal judge in Minnesota will consider an extraordinary legal question on Monday: Can a deployment of federal law enforcement officers be so dangerous and so intrusive that it violates a state’s sovereignty under the 10th Amendment?

Lawyers for the state of Minnesota, along with the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, have claimed that the Trump administration’s surge of some 3,000 immigration agents to the state has crossed the line into an unconstitutional and illegal occupation. They have asked a judge to temporarily halt the surge, which has led to three shootings, thousands of arrests and tense protests.

The Trump administration has dismissed the state’s legal theory, saying in court filings that it “would constitute an unprecedented act of judicial overreach” to expel federal officers from Minnesota. They have argued that Operation Metro Surge, as the administration has named its Minnesota campaign, is fully legal, and that it is up to the federal government to decide when and how to enforce federal laws.


Perhaps MN officials are taking an one step at a time approach. First, at the least put a temporary judicial halt on ICE's activities in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The people there have been terrorized by Gregory Bovino's marauding gangs of masked men long enough.

Second (this is speculation on my part) indict the ICE agents involved in the shooting deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Because this is not yet the country trump and Stephen Miller want. One where federal agents can gun down people in the streets with impunity. Or violate their 4th A rights. Or routinely get away with an excessive use of force. No matter how hard the regime tries to turn the country in to a police state.......this is still America.

I have no idea how the judge will rule. I just know a case like this wouldn't come before a court during any other prez's term. When federal troops have been used in the past it has typically been at the governor's request to control violence. In this case, no such request has been made while federal troops are causing the violence.

This is what a lawless regime looks like in practical terms. ICE has been given carte blanche to routinely violate laws and court orders by someone who is intimately familiar with operating outside of the law. Enabled by his blonde sock puppet. As Americans we must keep reminding ourselves that this is not normal. Typically, the government enforces the law, it doesn't make a mockery of it.

Minnesota judge counts ICE violations at nearly 100 court orders: "ICE is not a law unto itself"​

A federal judge is calling out ICE and its alleged noncompliance with court orders connected to actions in Minnesota. The strong statement was made in the context of a court order for a man held without due process.

Juan, who asked WCCO not to use his last name, was released on Tuesday, thereby triggering the cancellation of the hearing scheduled for Acting Director of ICE Todd Lyons. Chief Judge Patrick Schiltz, nonetheless, issued a stern warning.

"ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence," Schiltz said, adding that he counted 96 court orders that ICE has violated in 74 cases.

"ICE is not a law unto itself. ICE has every right to challenge the orders of this Court, but, like any litigant, ICE must follow those orders unless and until they are overturned or vacated," Schiltz said.

A state judge cant tell a federal agency what to do

That’s pretty darn funny. A long, tedious cut and paste about enforcement of federal law equates to to an “ illegal occupation”.

“The people there have been terrorized by Gregory Bovino's marauding gangs of masked men long enough”

Is that what your illegal alien rapists, murderers and child molesters told you?
 
Now that we know the ICE surge is perfectly legal, are the dim bulb Democrats going to admit their frivolous lawsuit was in error? I doubt it, that would require integrity.
