Noting that the only race-based issue that the states have delegated to the feds the specific constitutional power to regulate is voting rights, such protection evidenced by the 15th Amendment, Holder has no constitutional authority to do anything to any local police department imo. So maybe Holders payoff is winning votes for Democrats from low-information voters who dont understand the federal governments constitutionally limited powers.
Since when does the Justice Department have the authority to shut down a municipal police department?
His invading troops should be met by the National Guard.
The federal government has no power to do this. If it thinks it does, it is wrong. If there is a law saying it can do this, it is unconstitutional.
It seems the Federal government is about to start CW2.
Holder, Al Sharpton, Jessie, and their pals are the racists.
This delusional power-hungry fool is truly out of hand.
Has there ever been an Attorney General in U.S. history as corrupt, transparently racist and unabashed as this one? If the answer is "yes," how much damage did he achieve? And how did the sane citizens of the U.S. "deal" with it?
So which enumerated power might Holder use to invade a town?
“We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
Barack Obama
One thing I Know is, I can’t respond to this Racist Maniac Holder and The Pinocchio we have in the White House.
I was raised on the west side of New York city in the mid 90’S and it was wonderful. I am now 80 years old and I wouldn’t walk or drive those neighborhoods that I was raised in. Both Holder and Obama couldn’t run a Cat House.
What a disgrace, caused by only 2 People and their many Acolytes
Why stop there? Why not just get it over with and declare marshal law? After all, I’m sure “it’s for the chil’ren.”

It would serve the whiners in Ferguson right if all the cops found another job, walked away and maybe filed a lawsuit against Holder, the city or whomever for creating a hostile work environment. The whiners complaint is that the cops are not Black-well, so let the city find qualified Black applicants to hire and train, and see how that works out...
At the very least, I’d like to see the Oath Keepers stand up to the Feds if they try nationalizing local police forces.
Until that happens they will continue to ride roughshod over the people.
It’s time for the government to fear the people, just as the Foundesr intended.
Talk about long goodbyes!
No authority. Where is the Democrat governor Nixon? Soiling himself, or being an ADULT?
Oh, really?
I’ll bring the popcorn.
That’ll end well.........
He has NO authority to do this and the people of Missouri are just going to roll over for this petty little tyrant?
If I was the county sheriff, I'd tell Holder to send is bunch of DoJ thugs to Ferguson and see how fast they are arrested, processed, and thrown into cells on bread and water. If Holder was a real leader, he'd come to Ferguson to see the job was done correctly — including the part where the sheriff locks his sorry ass in a cell.
As of 1865, the Federal Government has had the power to do whatever it wants.
