U.S. District Court Judge Sara Lee Ellis, who issued the TRO barring deployment of federalized National Guard troops in Chicago and an order forbidding ICE troops from using various riot control weapons there has now ordered Border Control commander Bovino to appear before her in person as she inquires into him personally violating the latter, by tossing a tear gas canister into a crowd. 1/ #LawFedi

Just another reason that nobody doesn't like Sara Lee!

Ellis’ order is brief. News coverage of the hearing that prompted her to issue it is at https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/2025/10/24/federal-judge-orders-border-patrol-commander-greg-bovino-into-her-courtroom.

When the history of our era is written, many federal district court judges and some state court judges will go down as heroes who tried to use the law to constrain a tyrannical, lawless executive branch. 2/2

And Republicans in Congress will be reviled as quislings who shamelessly abandoned their oath of office.

@heidilifeldman gonna be cool when cops start abducting white guys with flattops based on “how they look” because y’know, they might have worked for ICE.

@heidilifeldman republicans are VERY big believers in "the winner writes the history books", so my guess is the current regime will be perfectly fine to completely end democracy if they can remain in power long enough to rewrite history.

@heidilifeldman Let's hope there's appropriate enforcement of constitutional statutes this time around. 🤞
