      TZUTC: -0800       MSGID: 154872.politics@1:103/705 2dec522d       PID: Synchronet 3.21b-Win32 master/0d91be51f Feb 02 2026 MSC 1944       TID: SBBSecho 3.36-Linux master/3f2b039ec Feb 03 2026 GCC 12.2.0       COLS: 136       BBSID: VERT       CHRS: ASCII 1       FORMAT: flowed       NOTE: FSEditor.js v1.105              In a remarkable lawsuit, the government prosecutor requested a 24-hour jail       sentence.              The lawyer was appointed by the Trump administration to assist the government       in Minnesota. Almost all the existing government lawyers have resigned because       they no longer want to work for the Trump administration.              This lawyer was flown in and confronted with a huge number of rulings from       judges that are being ignored by ICE and other federal agencies in Minnesota.              During the trial, she was so desperate that she tearfully asked the judge to       put her in jail for 24 hours so she could get some sleep.              It's her own fault; she volunteered for this job, but it's also sad that it's       come to this in the US.              The US federal government no longer cares about any rulings from judges. How       can a government lawyer intervene in that situation? You can't sell it to the       judge, and as a lawyer, you're the scapegoat. This is now being recognized en       masse by lawyers working for the government, which explains the exodus of       government lawyers.              The question now is: what will happen if ICE continues to blatantly ignore the       judges' demands? What can judges do then? Even the government lawyers       themselves are essentially giving up.                      .       --- SBBSecho 3.36-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187 129/14 305 153/757       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 112 134 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470 700 705 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 263/1 266/512 280/464 5003 5006 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124 633/280 712/848 770/1 902/26       SEEN-BY: 5020/400 5054/30 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
