A Wisconsin judge is threatening not to hold court in protest of federal authorities arresting her fellow judge Hannah Dugan last week.

Judge Monica Isham made the announcement in an email to judges across the state on Saturday. Her email, titled "Guidance Requested or I Refuse to Hold Court," made clear she had no intention of working with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

"If there is no guidance for us and no support for us, I will refuse to hold court in Branch 2 in Sawyer County. I will not put myself or my staff who may feel compelled to help me or my community in harms way," Isham wrote, according to a copy of the email obtained by Wisconsin Right Now.

I have no intention of allowing anyone to be taken out of my courtroom by ICE and sent to a concentration camp, especially without due process, as BOTH of the constitutions we swore to support require. Should I start raising bail money?" Isham wrote,

"If this costs me my job or gets me arrested then at least I know I did the right thing," she added.

Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon reacted to Isham's ultimatum on social media, saying the threat was "problematic."

Wouldn't normal procedure be to allow a sitting judge to turn themselves in with their attorney if charges are filed against them?

Well, here is another judge who has foolishly opposed the Trump agenda. She too, can be expected to be dealt with harshly. Judges need to learn their place. Go along to get along.

Your title is a little misleading (as is Fox News's). I do not agree with Judge Hannah Dugan's actions, but I do agree with this action. I think Judge Monica Isham is within her rights to ask for guidance in regard to how to conduct court under unusual circumstances. Yes, ICE has been around for a long time, and I'm sure many of these judges have worked with them in the past, but actions over the last few months have been more frequent, under less oversight, and seem less coordinated. If I were in their shoes, I would probably request guidance and hopefully a meeting with some of ICE's leadership to determine how best I could work with them instead of against them.

I disagree with, "I have no intention of allowing anyone to be taken out of my courtroom by ICE and sent to a concentration camp, especially without due process, as BOTH of the constitutions we swore to support require. Should I start raising bail money?" Those concerns should be raised with federal judges with proper authority to provide legal advice and offer assistance to guarantee constitutional rights to all parties involved. I feel that statement was both unprofessional and potentially too political to be made in a public statement.

From her statement, she's willing to stand up....unlike MAGAts with no spine.

These Leftist activist judges really crack me up.

How much do you want to bet that these antics will only end up helping Republicans?

Really? More than on the orders of a convicted felon president? C'mon, the irony alone.
