Chicago-Area Judge Rules ICE Agents Can Be Arrested at Courthouses

A Chicago-area judge has ruled that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers can be arrested at Cook County courthouses if they violate his orders and arrest a migrant without a warrant.
U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Cummings ordered that ICE officers are barred from arresting migrants at courthouses if they don’t have a warrant. He also ordered that federal law enforcement can be arrested if they violate his orders.
The judge’s order aimed to prevent what are called “collateral arrests” of people whom ICE officers discover are illegal on the spot. These are migrants that ICE agents come across by happenstance while looking for someone they have a warrant to apprehend.
Cummings stated that courthouses must be places where witnesses and suspects feel safe.

You don't need a warrant to arrest an illegal.
When cops pull over illegals, they don't wait for a warrant to be signed before arresting them.

I can't wait to see how this shakes out...

If there is an intruder in your house the police don't need a warrant to arrest them.

Then ICE needs to arrest the judge for harboring criminals.

Pretty simple. Just wait for them to leave the courthouse and then arrest them as they’re walking out.

You do in some "private" locations like a home or place of employment. I am not sure about a courthouse since it is a "public" venue.

Is the person here illegally? Yes
Is it a crime to enter this country illegally? Yes
Does that make said person a criminal? Yes
Does law enforcement arrest criminals? Well…

LOL that’s not how it works judge

Even if the judge is right, who does he think is going to do the arresting?
Local cops can't arrest federal agents, and federal agents are not going to arrest other federal agents.

Who’s going to arrest them? The judge?

The judge needs to be arrested.

I knew it before looking.

Any Tom, Dick or Harry can get a law degree these days...and apparently find themselves a bench somewhere.
The rulings over the last 10 months have been absolutely insane.
