Right On Time, The Evanston TRO Violations By Bovino’s Goon Squad Are Filed. Contempt Next?

As we predicted, the violence meted out by DHS / ICE goons not a block from my home (on Halloween) is now record evidence that these thugs continue to violate Judge Ellis's TRO.

Do read it all (just filed -- with pics!), and the NYT videos of it I linked over the weekend were devastating -- but here's a bit of it:

. . .A group of residents gathered to observe several ICE agents applying extreme physical force to protestors on a street in Evanston on Friday, October 31, 2025. There, DHS agents 1) used excessive force against multiple protestors, 2) subjecting these protestors to significant risk and harm, 3) deployed pepper spray without warning against a crowd of non-violent protestors, 4) threatened the use of excessive force against non-violent protestors, and 5) some of these agents failed to wear alphanumeric numbers and badges, in violation of this court’s TRO. . . .

One of the agents then grabbed the young man and threw him onto his back. At this point, the agent’s full weight was on top of the young man, holding him down. One of the federal agents proceeded to “grab the young man’s head and bash [it] on the street at least two times. . . .”

The agents then set off either pepper spray or mace without giving any warning to the crowd. See Exhibit 136 (Littel Decl.) at ¶35; Exhibit 138 (Brooks Decl.) at ¶ 13. During this violent interaction, the agent also did not appear to have any clearly visible identification. . . .

Damn these animals. Damn them. . . and jail them, for contempt.

Judge Ellis Will Have A Field Day, With This -- Later This Week. And Contempt Is Still On The Table. Chicago Headline Club Now Has Bovino On The Run...

Not surprising, if you've been paying attention -- at all.

But on October 20, Bovino's team of Noemite lawyers had the courtroom cleared and conducted an entire proceeding under seal. That was temporarily allowed by the able USDC Judge Ellis, since the claim was that there were bounties on the heads of Bovino and his officers, here in Chicago.

Now it is turning out that either that was a vast exaggeration of the actual facts -- or that the Bovino/Noemites... just made sh!t up. Preposterously, the whole team repeated the supposedly "secret and dangerous" information in press availabilities, and in online social media posts, from official government accounts. Even if the threats are real -- they can no longer be sealed, since the people have an inalienable right to monitor public information in the peoples' courts, every day. Here's the great nine pager on it, tonight -- just filed in courtroom 1403, of the Dirksen Building:

. . .Plaintiffs contend in this case that the government has invented false pretexts to justify its actions. The government has made arguments in Court that are based on false representations. And in the case of the sealed transcript, the government wishes to keep the transcript sealed based on a false premise. . . .

First and foremost, [Bovino / Noemite] Defendants cannot carry their burden because they have already published the information they seek to conceal. As courts across the country recognize, “[p]ublicly available information cannot be sealed.” June Medical Servs., LLC v. Phillips, 22 F.4th 512, 520 (5th Cir. 2022); see also United States v. Pearson, 340 F.3d 459, 465 (7th Cir. 2003) (ordering records to be unsealed because the information had already been made public), vacated on other grounds sub nom. Hawkins v. United States, 543 U.S. 1097 (2005); United States v. Pickard, 733 F.3d 1297, 1305 (10th Cir. 2013); OJ Com., LLC v. KidKraft, Inc., 34 F.4th 1232, 1241 (11th Cir. 2022); Washington Post v. Robinson, 935 F.2d 282, 291-92 (D.C. Cir. 1991). After Defendants themselves have taken every opportunity to broadcast the alleged bounties, they cannot in good faith ask this Court to seal [what they themselves chose to widely broadcast -- especially since it appears that material portions of it are now proven to be. . . untrue]. . . .

Well -- now USDC Judge Ellis -- she's "gonna' paint Bovino's back porch bright red" -- and real soon, too! Can't wait!

Stay tuned.
