Double jeopardy loophole! Now Democrats are proud to have repealed our protection against it.
In NY, you can now be punished TWICE for the same crime if you happen to be a political enemy of theirs.
Got it.

I am looking forward to the day Cuomo is indicted second only to the day he is convicted. How about the day he visits his dad?

They will do away with elections and democracy. For Democrats, the end justify the means.
And they will not stop until they have absolute power over all of us.

Huh? What’s the point of the 10th amendment if a state cannot enforce their own laws. Hasn’t a Presidential pardon always been a fed issue?

A state can enforce its own laws. But NY is going further than enforcing its own laws.
NY Democrats want to use them to persecute their political enemies.

Hi.
If true, that would be considered an ex post facto law and a Bill of Attainder.
The Cuomo Klan are like Sadaam Hussein, despots.

Whats the point of the 10th amendment... What is the point of our entire legal system if the States are allowed to place defendants in double jeopardy for politicized "crimes" which have already been settled at the Federal level?
Pick one venue or another and stick with it.

"its a bill of attainder.
How so?

California and New York. Book-ends.
Gulags had more going for them than these two states politically.
Both are on paths of financial devastation and social upheaval.
Fly-over country should think twice before bailing their butts out again when the time comes.

That would be a 'federal crime' which might be legal/illegal in a state. That's the point.

It punishes people by fiat. The determination of guilt is going to be made by Democrat state prosecutors behind closed doors.
Whether theyve evidence of a crime doesnt matter. They can ruin your life just by indicting you.
Its no joke.

"New York has been completely trashed by the leftists."
It's only gotten worse since the Democrats took over both houses of the state legislature. They've run amok.

They should be given the same treatment as Qusay and Uday. Now that was a grand sight!

The party of hate and vengeance. . . and they accuse Trump of being a hater . . . projection
To: yesthatjallen
I can't wait to hear the Democratic pigs squeal when this law is used against them. Remind me about all those felons and drug dealers pardoned by Obama and Clinton.
