FBI Director Kash Patel announced Friday in a since-deleted X post that Milwaukee Circuit Court Judge Hannah C. Dugan has been arrested for helping an illegal alien avoid immigration enforcement.
Dugan had been under federal investigation for allegedly helping an illegal alien avoid arrest by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers at the courthouse, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Patel wrote, “Just NOW, the FBI arrested Judge Hannah Dugan out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin on charges of obstruction — after evidence of Judge Dugan obstructing an immigration arrest operation last week.”

“We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest,” the FBI director added. “Thankfully, our agents chased down the perp on foot, and he’s been in custody since, but the Judge’s obstruction created increased danger to the public.”
The breaking news comes just after former Doña Ana County Magistrate Judge Joel Cano and his wife, Nancy Cano, were arrested on Thursday following a raid of their Las Cruces home. They face charges of evidence tampering amid allegations they harbored an alleged illegal alien who is also believed to be a member of Venezuela’s notorious Tren de Aragua gang, according to Fox News.
Social media users not only cheered the development, they called for more of the same treatment for activist judges — here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on X:
The fact that a judge would obstruct federal agents to protect an illegal alien shows how deep the rot runs.
Obstructing a lawful immigration arrest to protect an illegal alien is treasonous. This arrest is a good start, but how many more are out there sabotaging justice from…

Judge Dugan’s obstruction of ICE agents is a direct attack on the rule of law. The CLEAR Act of 2025 explicitly mandates state and local cooperation with federal immigration enforcement, and her actions undermine both public safety and congressional intent.
When judges…

When judges are smuggling criminals and calling it justice, it’s not lawfare—it’s cartel cosplay in a robe.

When the judicial system no longer upholds the law then the country is in peril. Normal citizens cannot break the law, judges should not either.

It is time. More of this. We can only tolerate a constitutional crisis for so long. We’re in a cold civil war right now with these activists.
