Beyond that, it's not like the legislators are in hiding.
I think Cornyn's announcement is just to prop up his chances against Paxton.
It’s a federal matter because a state asked for their assistance as they can’t go out of state to arrest them.
Your argument is much like states saying illegal immigration is a Federal issue so the state can’t help them one bit.
How many times do the Democrats have to keep pulling these same tactic before they change the law? If you flee the state in order to avoid your responsibilities as a government representative then your vote is not needed for a quorum
They crossed state lines in the possible commission of a crime, that allows the state to ask the fad to get involved.
Actually, not unusual to ask, just depends on if the feds decide to assist.
FBI aren’t going to aid in any significant way, except possible to help track their location. They aren’t going to arrest anyone because there are no criminal charges nor even a criminal investigation. Besides, if they were fugitives, it would be US marshalls that would be arresting them.
The optics of arresting them would play into the lefts whole “fascism police state” narrative and you KNOW the democrats will have media cameras around them ready to record it all.
John Cornyn has proved himself to not be trusted. Of late, he’s trying to get as much free face time as possible because he knows the people are done with him and his support and membership of the DC deep state.
“Trump’s FBI”???
This is about shining the light of truth on all the dumprats, not just the Texas clowns.
Who remembers Rush’s newsletter issue with the flash light of truth shining on all the democrat rats?
And bringing them back how effective with that be? Are they expected to vote to approve the redistricting?
“It’s a federal matter because a state asked for their assistance as they can’t go out of state to arrest them.”
Your reasoning is flawed. States can ask whatever they want but unlike immigration violations, there is no federal offense at stake.
Interesting headline. Whether it is intentional or not it may incite some cartoonists to depict something ridiculous like this. Of course many if not most of those slaveholders were democrats. :-)
Great. That’s a matter for Texas, not the feds.
This is literally one of the primary functions of the FedGov. When lawbreakers leave the state’s jurisdiction, it’s time for the Feds to step in to preserve order and the law.
You completely missed my analogy. The federal gov’t wants states to help them even though illegal immigration is a federal issue not a state issue.
So by your logic, no state should help the feds with illegal immigration.
“They crossed state lines in the possible commission of a crime...”
You’re winging it. There’d be no extradition cases if every interstate movement triggered federal jurisdiction.
I understand your analogy, but interstate squabbles are not a federal issue without a federal statute governing the dispute. There is none here.
Wrong, wrong, and wrong.
Any small government constitutionalist would tell you that states cannot summon the feds to settle their internal disputes.
If I were to fail to pay my New York income tax or to honor a summons to appear before a Mississippi commission to investigate insurance fraud, do you think that the feds would seize me in my Mackinac Island summer home and drag me to justice?
No, I literally asked my lawyer daughter and you failed reading comprehension. I wrote that it can be requested. I never wrote it, triggers it. The feds don’t have to do anything, or they can choose to.
Democrats are big on decorum, respect and integrity...until they’re not.
“Requesting” is hollow if there are no federal grounds. And there aren’t.
