It seems like the federal government wanted to commandeer the judge into doing their law enforcement work, which they cannot do as a constitutional matter. Refusing to assist the federal government is not the same as actively impeding law enforcement. This is highly suspect behavior from the feds.
Seeing claims about the judge "hiding" the defendant. Read the complaint, folks (written by DOJ). The guy was literally in the public area where the agents were. I guess he got on an elevator before they could get to him. The complaint says after letting the defendant exit she came back to the bench

My friend showed me threads of gamers super pissed about the Trump tariffs because of the price of what video games are about to cost. I think it’s called a Nintendo switch or something, but they’re fucking losing it over some delay & a lot of of these idiots voted for Trump 🤣

The Trump administration summarily fired the staff of the U.S. Institute of Peace late Friday night, less than two weeks after forcibly removing the congressionally funded organization’s president and installing in his place an agent of tech Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service.
DOGE fires nearly all staff at U.S. Institute of Peace headquarters
D.C. employees of the institute, founded and funded by Congress, received late-night termination notices, though most of its overseas staff were left in place.

I think there is going to be a Red Rural Recession and soon if all the cuts continue as is

All the firings, cancelling of grants and contracts with companies , the closing of offices, disproportionately impact small towns, cities and states.

Their finances will be turned upside

This is so much illegal bullshit and, more to the point, an obvious payback to the tech billionaires who lined up like pathetic props at the inauguration. FTC chair Andrew Ferguson is exactly the unctuous toady to oligarchs l expected him to be www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

When AOC and Adam Kinzinger are both furious at Chuck Schumer, for the exact same reason, maybe you need to give up the idea this is just a backlash coming from far left activists.
