Let me get something straight here. I keep hearing about these governors “sending out the state police to retrieve these missing democrats”. We know they are in another state so what in the hell are the trooper going to do, go to the state line and wait??? I don't think state police from one state have any jurisdiction in the next. So to me this is all just bull crap. Not that I don't want these rats exterminated but this rhetoric is stupid to me.

I think that’s why the Dems are fleeing to states with sympathetic Dem governors. A Republican gov might order his SP to round them up and return them to their SP counterparts waiting at the border.

You got it wrong. The troopers are sent out to locations within the state (their jurisdiction) where they have info that the Senators may be. IOW, they go and check their homes and give them the “opportunity” to comply with state law. They also demonstrate that if these cretins DO come back, but refuse to go to work, the troopers will come pick them up at their homes or wherever.

There is nothing worthless about the message being sent. It also demonstrates to the public that, in fact, these senators are breaking the law by fleeing outside the jurisdiction.
