The top federal judge in Minnesota has summoned the head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to personally explain this week why he should not be held in contempt of court as judicial scrutiny of the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration crackdown grows.

The order by Judge Patrick J. Schiltz — which he acknowledged was “an extraordinary step” — adds to the administration’s legal fights while it also faces public and political pressure over the aggressive tactics of its agents, who have shot and killed two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis in three weeks.

Mr. Trump shook up the leadership of the Minnesota enforcement operation on Monday by planning to pull its director of on-the-ground enforcement, Gregory Bovino, according to two U.S. officials. That came after two days of outrage over the killing of Alex Pretti, who was shot and killed by federal agents over the weekend. Mr. Trump said he was sending Tom Homan, his border czar, to oversee the operations and that Mr. Homan would report directly to him.

This judge was appointed by George W. Bush and was confirmed by the Senate in 2006. He is hardly a "Liberal" judge. HE is also very angry right now and for good reason.

This judge is an idiot, just like the neocon that appointed him.

Well guess what, if he didn't show up the first time, how likely is he to show up the second time?

And if found in contempt officials of the Trump regime should be arrested and jailed until such time as they comply.

Members of the Trump regime should be treated like the criminals they are.

The judge is just a traitor, which also is hardly a "Liberal".

He has not yet made a legal finding so hold your horses, you may end up angry at him.

There is no they. He has called in one person and had yet to make a decision.

Good luck with that one.

Actually, it would be great to be jailed in a holding area with a bunch of protestors.

A lot of loose teeth would occur.

Do you ever get tired of sounding like a stupid left-wing schill?

 

[Concerned American]

Yeah, and Bill and Hilarity who are currently in contempt of congress should be arrested and jailed right next to him until the comply too, eh Clay?

To be honest, we don't know where he stands on the issues politically. Just because GW Bush appointed him means nothing....Bush appointed many disappointments to the bench for conservatives...

Then defer to his written and stated opinions.

Have you read any of it? The fed jackboots are intentionally and often defying court orders.

Yep, it wouldn't be the first time politicians defied a District Judges orders...The judge can make their pronouncements, but have NO enforcement arm...

These aren't politicians.
