Signed into law last October, AB6653 enables New York district attorneys to prosecute what effectively amounts to certain friends and family of any president who pardoned them for federal convictions.

Isn't this a violation of double jeopardy? How would New York even have jurisdiction?

Any NY prosecutor taking this up should immediately be arrested and charged with Federal Civil Rights violations, obstruction of justice for interfering with the President’s pardon powers, etc.

No. Stone was convicted on federal charges. They're talking about trying Stone for state witness tampering charges. Different law, different crime, double jeopardy doesn't exist.
