#law, #climate, #science, #geopolitics, #politics, #democracy, cool stuff &… #BabySquirrel Recovering lawyer. Spending less time on world news since US voters re-elected a rapist/convicted felon, who tried to end democracy, but who Americans decided to give a mulligan, cuz democracy shlemocracy right? Occasionally I’ll come across something that I feel compelled to share, but… …these days… I've stopped my dreaming …these days I sit on corner stones & count the time in quarter tones to ten

Fmr #Wisconsin #Judge Hannah Dugan was spared from prison Wednesday for ushering a Mexican defendant out of her courtroom to evade #ICE agents. A federal judge fined her $5k & cited her otherwise #law abiding life in issuing the sentence.
Dugan, 67, was convicted of felony obstruction in December. Her lawyers argued that the #Trump admin sought to “crush” Dugan in an effort to ensure #judicial compliance with the ICE strategy of targeting immigrants as they showed up for #court hearings. [yup]
