The Supremacy Clause is the portion of the Constitution which declares that federal laws and statutes are 'the supreme law of the land.'

Where is this in the Constitution? The Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and federal statutes are subject to the limitations in the Constitution.

Also, there is a federal law that states federal officials can have their criminal cases removed to federal court if arrested by a state law enforcement agency during the performance of their official duties. Not sure how the Feds could force a state to release an accused federal official if the state refused to do so.

I pity the fool who is sent to confiscate the abundance of fire arms along the Texas/Mexico border. They should check with the Census lady who was almost killed by a watch hog, a javelina trained to attack anyone who came to the door of a mobile home parked out in the desert.

The hombres who inhabit that no-man’s land have creativity. No one would ever find the bodies.
