Kash Patel's since-deleted tweet: https://www.threads.com/@pstomlinson/post/DI3-hnfuDvL > Thankfully our agents chased down the perp on foot and he's been in custody since, ... I feel like I'm watching reality TV. Which makes sense, we have a reality TV star for president and his cabinet is full of Fox news hosts.

Not sure that applies to arbitrary documents that the bearer claims is a warrant, rather than a judge-signed warrant. Either way, it wasn't illegal to send them to where they needed to go, and it wasn't illegal to let this dude use another door, so the illegality seems to depend on whether the executive can concoct their own warrants without any oversight and gain arbitrary access for arbitrary reasons. > The judge s…
It doesn't say it had to be a judicial warrant, it says warrant or process . And "I don't even know if you're actually law enforcement" is not an excuse for ignoring law enforcement; what you do is ask for credentials and verify them.

I hope Judge Dugan will be trialed as a regular citizen.
It does indeed look like she broke the law, but it was the right thing to do.
A key point here, which the judge brought up with the ICE agents, is that they only had an "administrative warrant".[1] An “ICE warrant” is not a real warrant. It is not reviewed by a judge or any neutral party to determine if it is based on probable cause. "An immigration officer from ICE or CBP may not enter any nonpublic areas—or areas that are not freely accessible to the public and hence carry a higher expectati…
Key point is the Feds aren't obeying the law
