A transgender Oklahoma attorney representing a mother in a bitter child custody battle was arrested after repeatedly clashing with the judge, triggering a chaotic scene that ended with contempt charges, resistance, and a dramatic removal from the courtroom.

According to The Oklahoma Post, attorney Rob Hopkins, who was representing Julie Ann Kramer in an ongoing custody dispute, was taken into custody by order of Judge Laurie Jackson after repeatedly interrupting proceedings and refusing to comply with courtroom decorum.

The viral footage shows Hopkins repeatedly interrupting the judge, smirking at the bench, and eventually throwing a phone in a fit of rage.

The courtroom video began when Hopkins repeatedly spoke over Judge Laurie Jackson, refusing to yield the floor despite multiple warnings.

Judge Laurie Jackson: “You interrupt me one more time, you are being held in indirect contempt of court.”

Rather than de-escalate, Hopkins continued to argue, insisting the judge was refusing to hear the case properly and challenging the court’s jurisdiction.

At one point, the situation escalated further when Hopkins appeared to knock a phone off the bench, prompting the judge to warn about courtroom conduct as tensions rose.

The situation took an even more bizarre turn when Hopkins suddenly injected identity politics into the confrontation. Instead of acting like a professional, Hopkins attempted to hide behind her identity, suggesting the judge was only being harsh because she is a “transgender attorney.”

Rob Hopkins:
Or maybe because I’m a transgender attorney practicing all over the state.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
I don’t know what you are.

Rob Hopkins:
You do, ma’am. You do.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
I don’t know what you do.

Rob Hopkins:
You do.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
Other than you have just now—

Rob Hopkins:
No, ma’am, you do.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
It doesn’t have anything to do—

Rob Hopkins:
It’s happened when we talked on the phone.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
That wasn’t talking, let me tell you. You were entirely inappropriate.

Rob Hopkins:
You were yelling at me, and I did not even know you were the judge.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
And I didn’t know you from Adam.

Rob Hopkins:
I said, “My name is Rob Hopkins. I’m an attorney in Oklahoma City.”

Judge Laurie Jackson:
No, sir, you did not.

The situation turned from combative to theatrical when Hopkins was ordered into custody for direct contempt.

As deputies attempted to lead her away, Hopkins began a bizarre performance, screaming “Do not hurt me!” and “You just kicked me!” despite the video showing officers simply trying to secure her hands.

Hopkins began shrieking, “I can’t breathe!” and “I can’t move!” while writhing on the floor.

Hopkins then demanded a “female officer,” apparently deciding in the heat of the moment that only a woman should be allowed to touch her.

Hopkins was hit with a $25,000 bond and later faced an additional charge for resisting arrest, according to The Oklahoma Post.

Under Mounting US Pressure, Cuba Sets Over 2,000 Prisoners Free

Havana is moving.

As the US ramps up the pressure on the Caribbean island, the Cuban communist dictatorship announced that it has freed more than 2,000 ‌prisoners.

It’s the second prisoner amnesty this year alone, amid talks with the US administration of Donald J. Trump.

Reuters reported:

“Cuba’s state-run Granma newspaper called the measure a ‘humanitarian and sovereign gesture’.

The Cuban government has consistently rejected any suggestion it makes decisions under ​U.S. pressure. The timing of Thursday’s announcement, however, coincides with the most intense pressure campaign applied by Washington in ​decades.”

“The decision to free ⁠2,010 prisoners “stemmed from a careful analysis of the crimes committed by those convicted, their good conduct in prison, the fact ​that they had served a significant portion of their sentence, and their state of health’, state media said.”

Murderers, drug-related felons, and pedophiles were excluded from the release.

“It was unclear how many of the prisoners subject to release following Thursday’s announcement have been held on charges related to anti-government ​protests. Many high-profile dissidents, and some protesters from island-wide July 11 protests, have been freed in recent agreements and amnesties ​announced by the Cuban government.”

Associated Press reported:

“Cuba’s government denies holding political prisoners, but the activist group Prisoners Defended registered 1,214 people imprisoned for political reasons in Cuba as of February.

[…] The release comes as the Trump administration has placed extreme pressure on Cuba’s government.”

Last month, Cuba released 51 people from the island’s prisons in an unexpected move negotiated with the Vatican.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was rushed to a hospital last month after a Federalist Society dinner in Philadelphia, CNN reported.

Alito, who just turned 76, was treated for dehydration after he fell ill (food poisoning?).

Details about the medical emergency were not disclosed.

In the two weeks since the medical incident, Samuel Alito has been on the bench and has attended oral arguments.

“Out of an abundance of caution, he agreed with his security detail’s recommendation to see a physician before the three-hour drive home,” the Supreme Court said in a statement, The Hill reported.

“After that examination and the administration of fluids for dehydration, he returned home that night, as previously planned,” the high court said.

CNN reported:

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was taken to a hospital after becoming ill last month at a Federalist Society dinner in Philadelphia, according to people with knowledge of the March 20 incident.

The justice was evaluated and administered fluids for dehydration. He returned to his home in Virginia that night with his security team.

Alito and Supreme Court public information officials declined to comment for the record about the episode, which has not been previously reported.

In the two weeks since the incident, Alito has attended oral arguments and appeared healthy during the usual give-and-take with lawyers at the lectern.

Alito, who turned 76 on Wednesday and has served as a justice for 20 years, has become the subject of widespread speculation from commentators across the ideological spectrum and the news media over whether he might retire. (He has refused to answer journalists’ questions on the subject.)

Fox News also confirmed the Alito report.

Fox News reported:

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was treated for dehydration at a hospital after a previously undisclosed March 20 incident in Philadelphia, sources told Fox News.

He was not admitted and returned home the same night without complications.

Alito, 76, attended a Federalist Society dinner that evening and reported feeling lightheaded, prompting his security detail to recommend a precautionary hospital visit. Sources said the justice has had no issues since.
