Has there ever, ever, in the history of our Country been taken an action such as this against a public official by the Feds, or any other official government body?

They just could not be more blatant in their threats.

Ever?

Back in the early seventies (maybe late sixties) the hippies that had discovered Telluride, Colorado finally became organized and populated enough to get other hippies elected to the various positions in the town. (I'm pretty sure it was Telluride.).

The FBI ended up infiltrating them and after awhile had enough to take them all down on drug charges and the locals got their town back.

Of course, that was a LONG time ago when government was usually on the side of law abiding citizens.

That’s a good question. Sheriff Joe was in the DEA for a long time. He’s put most of his life into law enforcement.

I would love to ask the DOJ if they have ever done this before.
