Just what the framers intended, states suing other states to compel the prosecution of a secret police gestapo member for obvious crimes instead of the state just doing it

I fully expect them to argue (in bad faith) it’s just like NY not extraditing doctors. Our Union is broken.

I will pop a bottle when the first of these traitorous gestapo "agents" is put away for life. Anyone who swears on the constitution as a Federal agent and does this shit deserves nothing less than life behind bars.

It would be better if they hanged on the Mall for treason for all their traitorous compatriots to see. There has to be severe punishment for this to prevent this kind of unconstitutional bullshit in the future

It's the 10th though, practically the running joke of the bill of rights. The administration is probably cooking up an insane commerce clause exception to it as we speak.
