In an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, Raskin accused Trump officers of “kidnapping” Dugan and “interfering with a authorized continuing.”
He defined:
I regard it very a lot throughout the prism of what we’ve been coping with during the last month, which is an intense assault on judicial independence. They’ve been disobeying federal courtroom orders systematically.
They’ve incurred felony contempt findings within the courtroom of Decide Boasberg, a conservative Republican, a choose. They’ve been demanding the impeachment of judges who rule in opposition to the lawlessness of the Trump administration.
There are actually greater than 90 preliminary injunctions and momentary restraining orders in opposition to the chaos that’s been unleashed on the nation by the Trump administration.”
Now they’re arresting judges, and the primary felony felony cost introduced in opposition to Decide Hannah Dugan in Wisconsin is interfering with a authorized continuing, which is basically what they’ve been doing all alongside.
What Decide Boasberg is about to carry them in felony contempt for and has discovered that there’s possible trigger for felony contempt is that they intentionally ignored and defied his order to not take off in these airplanes headed for El Salvador and never turning the airplanes round.
So on the logic of this arrest of Decide Dugan, the entire folks within the Trump Administration who participated in defying that order by Decide Boasberg themselves may very well be arrested for interfering with a authorized continuing and maybe different felony costs like kidnapping.

Final week, Raskin promised retaliation in opposition to these liable for “unleashing fascism” on America when Democrats return to energy.
