They Say ‘Nobody’s Above the Law’—Until It’s Their Judge

Boy, they love them the rules, eh?

Like neon lights in the fog, five words we’ve seen and heard everywhere, along with the self-righteous posts:

“Nobody is above the law!”

We heard those five words more than we heard “Good morning” or “Have a nice day.” 

They echoed from tote bags, blared across chyrons, and rang out in chants from crowds cheering FBI raids on pro-life activists and conservative school board members—repeated so often that we began to believe they meant what they said.

However, when progressive Milwaukee Judge, County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan helped a man here illegally slip out the side door with hopes of dodging ICE like a rabbit outrunning a cheetah, those five very sacred words vanished.
