This is Stephen Miller’s (White House Deputy Chief) response to Karen Bass (Los Angeles Mayor).
That’s a fair point. But it would need to be argued in the courts.
And “constitutionality” is defined by the Supreme Court…
Doh!
Yeah, the courts being captured is possibly the biggest problem facing the US right now. They’re what makes all the bad stuff the current regime is doing possible.
Mmm, maybe, I’m pretty sure there’s pretty solid case law precedent on this. It’s been heavily litigated over the centuries.
The parameters around what is within the jurisdiction of the US Federal govt is pretty clear. Fundamentally Article I, Section 8 of US Constitution although there’s a few other loose ends (implied powers).
“The enumerated powers listed in Article One include both exclusive federal powers, as well as concurrent powers that are shared with the states, and all of those powers are to be contrasted with reserved powers that only the states possess”
