The feds have Constitutional authority over whatever crosses national or state borders - but not things made and consumed within the same single state.

If it constitutes a threat to the nation, then yes they do.

Emanate that penumbra, Al Gore.

Defending the nation against dangerous threats is not a "penumbra", it is the most essential function the government is tasked with.

*YOU* stop lying about the constitution being unclear on this. It is very clear that dangerous threats to the populace must be dealt with.
