All right. Let's start with the point you just made, of course. Bondi makes a big thing about how this precipitated a chase on the streets, how dangerous that was. Your point is absolutely right, Ben. The bigger danger is people not showing up, including accused criminals. But my viewpoint as a former U.S.

And they want to use the state because these people have gone through, this is what they say anyway, the security apparatus are less likely to be armed. Guess what?

Very strong principles that used to be articles of faith of the Republicans that you can't commandeer the state to do your business that way. So she did nothing wrong. other than control her courtroom and say, if you want to arrest him, don't do it in here. And they did arrest him. In order to be charged with obstruction under federal law, you need to have some corrupt act.

So we can say without the faintest doubt, super aggressive move to try to put the fear of the feds in the state court and in a municipality, Milwaukee, that has some allowance for trying to keep the feds from just imposing their anti-immigration policy.

What happened here is she said, not in my courtroom.
