On a recent episode of CNN’s "OutFront," Wisconsin State Representative Ryan Clancy spoke out in support of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan, who has recently faced legal challenges. Clancy described Dugan as a figure who is standing up for her community against what he called the "Trump regime."
During the broadcast, host Erin Burnett pressed Clancy on whether Dugan might be willing to go to jail if necessary. Clancy avoided speculation on that point but expressed disbelief over the charges brought against her. He noted that just hours before her arrest, he had been discussing ways to support her, believing she had done nothing wrong.
Clancy emphasized that Dugan’s actions reflect a broader call to support those in the community who feel targeted. He stated, "Nobody’s trying to be a hero here, but Judge Dugan is doing what all of us will be called to do." His comments highlight a growing concern among some lawmakers about the implications of the legal actions against Dugan.
This situation has sparked discussions about the role of judges and public officials in standing up against perceived injustices. As the legal proceedings unfold, many are watching closely to see how this case will impact the community and the broader political landscape.
