It happened. That judge shut down Immigration and Customs Enforcement
raids in southern California last night. According to Fox News’ Bill Melugin, Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong drafted a tentative
decision this week, which sides with the American Civil Liberties
Union that virtually shuts down federal agents doing their jobs across several counties. Last night, she made that opinion official. It's
absolute lunacy:

BREAKING: As we reported last night, LA federal judge Maame
Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong has now made her tentative order final, and is
blocking the Trump administration, effective immediately, from
carrying out some of the more controversial aspects of its immigration
sweeps in LA. ????
How did this person get confirmed? Well, ask the 25 Republican
senators who never bothered to show up for her confirmation vote. I’m
not kidding:

Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong was only confirmed because 25
Republican Senators didn't show up to work on the day of the
confirmation vote.
Had they showed up and voted against her, she would have not been

This isn’t the first time this will happen, nor will it be the last,
sadly. Judge Amir Ali, who issued an injunction over Trump’s 90-day
freeze on foreign aid in February, got through because then-outgoing
Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN) didn’t show up for work. If he voted against,
the confirmation would’ve failed on a 50-50 vote. Then-Vice President Kamala Harris was on vacation in Hawaii, and she wouldn’t have been
around to break the tie.
