“How do I decide when a law enforcement response crosses the line from a legitimate law enforcement response to a response that violates the #10thAmendment?” Judge Kate M. Menendez asks a lawyer for the state of #Minnesota. Brian Carter, a lawyer for MN, tells the judge that “at its heart, the issue is that the #federal government is attempting to bend the #state’s will to its own. And that is not allowed under the #Constitution.” #Trump #law #UseOfForce #authoritarianism #ICE #CBP

The state’s interest in finding a way to at least create some deterrence to deadly federal lawlessness is not just a matter of #justice: It is also a way of keeping its people safe moving forward. #law #Trump #immigration #Constitution #CivilRights #UseOfForce #ExtraJudicialKillings #ICE #CBP #Sturmabteilung
