California Gov. Gavin Newsom has cranked his anti-ICE, anti-Trump hysteria all the way up to 11. Not satisfied with smearing a top Trump official as a Nazi SS officer, Newsom just went even further off the rails \u2014 signing a law that bans law enforcement, including federal agents, from wearing masks while doing their jobs.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s right: at a time when ICE agents are being doxxed, threatened, and attacked, Newsom\u2019s big idea is to strip away one of their basic protections. This guy\u2026and his Democrat supermajority in California.<\/p>\n
As we\u2019ve pointed out before, Newsom seems to have conveniently \u201cforgotten\u201d a little thing in the Constitution called the Supremacy Clause. Cornell Law spells it out plain as day: It \u201crefers to the foundational principle that, in general, federal law takes precedence over any conflicting state law.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Department of Homeland Security already warned Newsom that his little stunt of a law is dead on arrival. But now U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli has put it in writing: federal officers will keep doing their jobs exactly as before \u2014 and anyone foolish enough to get in their way is going to have some serious problems on their hands.<\/p>\n
