Interpol has quite the history. Started in Austria and taken over by the nazis after Anschluss. Reinhard Heydrich was once its senior director.
Do you have link for that? That just sounds way too good to be true.
The US is a member of Interpol. It’s US HQ is at the Dept. of Justice in Washington, DC. It has always been able to operate in the US. The change is that now it’s property and assets are immune to search and seizure by search warrant, subpoena, or FOIA inquiry. If they are custodians of any evidence or seized property, we can’t get it.
Why was this change so important that it required an executive order? Would the administration like to put something where it can never be accessed through legal means? It appears with this order in place that evidence held at the DOJ in DC could be sloughed off to Interpol and never be accessed through legal means.
