   Hannah C. Dugan, the Wisconsin judge the feds arrested for allegedly obstructing ICE, has filed a wonderful motion to dismiss the entire case against her. My copy with my annotations at https://drive.proton.me/urls/YSVCCN8N5M#seabLmxl0gFa.
   A good portion of the brief rests on and repeatedly cites Trump v. U.S., bc Dugan argues that she is protected from suit by absolute judicial immunity. 1/ #LawFedi

     there is a certain beautiful irony in the thugs of the guy who is acting like he has a get out of jail free card getting stopped by actual immunity.

     @heidilifeldman @paul_ipv6 Who could have predicted that absolute immunity would be a tarpit?!?

     @paul_ipv6 @heidilifeldman I believe you have to wait for the beauty of watching a court struggle to square originalism with immunity.

     It’s going to be glorious. I mean in the sense of “this shall not stand” and bad for the republic but nice violin music.

     I in particular enjoy the references of the Trump case as that chicken is coming home to roost and I'm here for it. Reap what you sow, FAFO kind of thing here.
