Heretofore ignored by the legacy press and mainstream media, in February, federal authorities invaded a neighborhood in the Flathead Valley with militarized police and terrorized its occupants with what appears to be Waco-level tyrannical overreach.
In 1992, a federal siege occurred in Boundary County, Idaho, at a location known as Ruby Ridge. The eleven-day siege lasted from August 21-31 and resulted in the deaths of one U.S. Marshall, and the wife and son of Randy Weaver, the target of the siege. This event captured the attention of the nation. To secure the land around this seven-person home composed of three adults and four children, the federal government saw fit to send in hundreds of federal agents, as well as associated vehicles and air support. . .
. . .The reasons for the siege are not pertinent here, but the fact is many lessons were learned as a result. Those lessons revolved around Rules of Engagement, the use of force, and other legal concerns. One would have hoped the lessons would be applied in future encounters, but in 1993 the same FBI Hostage Rescue Team commander took part in the siege and raid of the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas. After fifty-one days, the compound was breached and seventy-five people were killed, including twenty-five children. Nearly thirty years after Ruby Ridge, it seems that the only real lesson federal agencies applied from Ruby Ridge and Waco is that they needed to do a better job of keeping their activities out of the eyes of the public. Why? Because a similar event occurred in Western Montana on February 2, 2021, and it’s likely you’ve not heard anything about it.
In the early Tuesday morning hours, motion sensors alerted the occupant . . ."

At a minimum I would make it my life’s mission to total ruin the life of that bitch and make sure she lived a long, painful and miserable existence until the day she died.
I know that arguing on a Constitutional basis is moot these days but the 10th Amendment says differently.
Exactly true !

Unlike you, I have a life, and I'm not logged in waiting for your next insult.
But using your standards, it took you two hours to come up with your observation and "snappy" comeback. wow, that is impressive.

One of the sure signs of a leftist is their habit of calling opponents “fascist” and “nazi”.
This is why no state official has authority to interfere with federal officers performing their duties.
“Article VI, Paragraph 2 of the U.S. Constitution is commonly referred to as the Supremacy Clause. It establishes that the federal constitution, and federal law generally, take precedence over state laws, and even state constitutions. It prohibits states from interfering with the federal government’s exercise of its constitutional powers, and from assuming any functions that are exclusively entrusted to the federal government. It does not, however, allow the federal government to review or veto state laws before they take effect.”

Any claim that a state sheriff can prevent federal officers from enforcing federal law is utter nonsense.
All he has is opinions, you are right, but these opinions are from the Supreme court.

seems quite a few here don’t like this guy
The courts have authority over state and federal statute but none over the Constitution itself.
Only congress can alter any constitutional article by the amendment process.
Any claim that a court can overrule or modify a constitutional provision is utter nonsense.
Sheriff Mack has first hand experience at the Supreme Court wining his case in favor of Sheriff power over Federal.

There are operatives pushing disinformation about this, insisting falsely overstating Federal powers, and using propaganda techniques to silence opposition - even here on FR.
