>> The leftists who forced Trump to cancel his Chicago rally are in clear violation of federal law <<
Uh, no, because it was not a FEDERAL building.
This is only about fed government lands and properties. Does not affect UIC arena, I don’t believe.
This is for any building that receives Secret Service protection. That extends to candidate’s rallies.
Trump is a candidate for nomination; he’s a private citizen and that was not a government function. Just as the protesters at the DNC can’t be charged with this crime either - while the parties have a stranglehold on government, they are not (yet) the government.
I’m sure that there’s plenty in office who are itching to apply these federal laws to elections though (to use against conservatives, of course.)
Secret Service CONSULTS on such matters, they advise their protectee. Trust me, if the Secret Service were handing things, you’d hear the screams high and wide.

Went down to talk to the VA people.
Armed guard and employees behind locked doors.
Went down to talk to the Social Security people.
Armed guard and TV cameras and one bulletproof window. You had to take a number to talk to one of the employees behind the bulletproof glass. You can’t see the other employees.
There are no large amounts of cash at these facilities, but they have armed guards.
This is where the American Taxpayer meets with the people who are paid with his hard-earned tax dollars.
Armed guards. Bulletproof windows. TV cameras.
To deal with Veterans and Taxpayers.
Is it any wonder the VA executives let Veterans die? They have armed guards protecting them.
It isn’t America anymore.
I understand that some people might scream and holler, but that is not nearly as bad as armed guards to intimidate Veterans and Taxpayers.
Government employees are not the least appreciative to their customers or the people paying their wages.
Bad bad bad.
What federal rule did they break. It was a federal building. Campaigning for President is not “Federal Business’”
I understand people are angry, but this is jailhouse lawyer crap.
Are arrests forthcoming,or is this another of those laws that will be enforced selectively?
