A foreign-born judge is attempting to hold the Border Patrol hostage.
Dictatorship update:
Liberal foreign-born judge forces top Border Patrol official Greg Bovino to physically report to her each day on his work in Chicago to ensure he isn’t doing anything wrong.
The reason? He used tear gas to disperse a mob that was throwing rocks at him. pic.twitter.com/6DbmuKREKd

She must be a member of the babysitters’ club…
This judge says that if Border Patrol are naughty boys, she’s going take away their tear gas.
She was born in Canada to Jamaican-born parents. https://t.co/aFcCmzhoeq pic.twitter.com/JgbuQDDq0u

Mike Davis says the administration should immediately appeal:
This DEI Democrat activist judge’s order is clearly lawless and dangerous.
U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis, a foreign-born Obama judge in Chicago, is illegally sabotaging and endangering the President’s immigration efforts and leaders.
This is unacceptable. https://t.co/6vANKJscx7 pic.twitter.com/RCWgpotm9M

A federal judge on Tuesday ordered a top U.S. Border Patrol official to appear in court daily to give her updates about immigration operations in Chicago, eliciting pushback from conservative legal experts who say she is overstepping the authority of the court to tell the executive branch how to operate.
U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis ordered Border Patrol commander-at-large Greg Bovino to report to her daily at 6 p.m. until a preliminary injunction hearing on Nov. 5, “to hear about how the day went” regarding immigration enforcement operations in the area, per the Associated Press. Ellis issued the order while Bovino was questioned by the judge over officers’ use of force during “Operation Midway Blitz.”
The federal judge’s unusual request came weeks after she ordered federal immigration officers in Chicago to wear bodycameras and issued multiple temporary restraining orders aimed at restricting the use of certain riot control tactics, including the use of tear gas. Ellis grilled Bovino on his officers’ compliance with those orders in the courtroom Tuesday.
“My role is not to tell you that you can or cannot enforce validly passed laws by Congress,” Ellis said during the hearing. “My role is simply to see that in the enforcement of those laws, the agents are acting in a manner that is consistent with the Constitution.”
While conservative legal experts questioned Ellis’s order requiring bodycameras, they were outraged over her order mandating daily briefings on immigration operations. Mike Davis, founder of the conservative legal Article III Project, called the order “outrageous” and said the judge overstepped her authority over Bovino.
