    This person is in state custody at the moment. Of course there will be an interesting push and pull as there often is between federal and state authorities about who charges first and whether there are federal charges warranted here.

    What would federal charges be?

          It’s true that this administration has failed to get many grand juries to indict, but I’m sure they will completely avoid the topic of jurisdiction.

      Anything they want? They’re sending people to concentration camps in Africa with no due process. I wouldn’t expect anything less than trumped up charges and a farce of a trial. At this point, they might just go full mask off and just execute the guy.
