The Conservative Cave

It was pretty clear last night that Judge Dugan's defense team wasn't done. Sure, they lost on one felony count of obstruction, but they intended to appeal that. But Wisconsin Republicans aren't waiting around. Today Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Assembly Majority Leader Tyler August offered Judge Dugan an ultimatum: Resign or be impeached.

Quote

“Last night a Milwaukee County Judge was convicted of a felony for obstructing the United States government. Judge Hannah Dugan, while wearing judicial robes of the State of Wisconsin, attempted to impede the lawful work of federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

“Under Article XIII Section 3(2) of the Wisconsin Constitution, ‘[n]o person convicted of a felony, in any court within the United States, no person convicted in federal court of a crime designated, at the time of commission, under federal law as a misdemeanor involving a violation of public trust and no person convicted, in a court of a state, of a crime designated, at the time of commission, under the law of the state as a misdemeanor involving a violation of public trust shall be eligible to any office of trust, profit or honor in this state unless pardoned of the conviction.’

“The last time a Wisconsin judge was impeached was in 1853. If Judge Dugan does not resign from her office immediately, the Assembly will begin impeachment proceedings.

Judge Dugan righteously stood for a principle I can wholeheartedly agree with.

The massive tranche of Jeffrey Epstein documents released Friday runs hundreds of thousands of pages. It includes the names of more than a dozen politically exposed figures and government officials, according to sources familiar with the material.

In a letter to Congress exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Justice Department’s exhaustive review identified more than 1,200 victims and family members. Blanche outlined how the DOJ sifted through the files and weighed what could responsibly be made public as part of the release process.
...
"We write to notify you that today the Department of Justice is producing hundreds of thousands of pages of responsive materials in compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act," Blanche wrote.

"Under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi, this unprecedented disclosure highlights our commitment to following the law, being transparent, and protecting victims," Blanche continued, noting that the production of documents comes within the 30 days required under the law signed by the president. ...

Photos featuring one prominent individual in the latest release have already been circulating on social media, and it’s not President Donald Trump. It’s former President Bill Clinton. Photos show Clinton swimming with Ghislaine Maxwell and another female whose identity has been redacted, suggesting that she is a victim and/or a minor.
...
President Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act in November, forcing the government to make public any unclassified records connected to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell within 30 days.

The legislation allows the Justice Department to withhold or redact material that could expose victims or compromise ongoing investigations, including cases like the New York probe recently opened by Attorney General Pam Bondi into Epstein’s links to Democrats. It also authorized the DOJ to keep information confidential if its disclosure would threaten national security or foreign policy interests.

...the conservative justices seemingly no longer care what the public or the legal community think of the court’s actions.
