That's UNConstitutional and a state doesn't have that power.

OTOH...that also does open up the Clintons, Nadler, Schumer, AOC, and Gillibrand to such a search, should the GOPEers ever grow a spine.

Isn’t there a clause in the Constitution that prohhibits changing a law to affect a particular person retroactively.

especially : a law that retroactively alters a defendant’s rights especially by criminalizing and imposing punishment for an act that was not criminal or punishable at the time it was committed, by increasing the severity of a crime from its level at the time the crime was committed, by increasing the punishment for a crime from the punishment imposed at the time the crime was committed, or by taking away from the protections (as evidentiary protection) afforded the defendant by the law as it existed when the act was committed
NOTE: Ex post facto laws are prohibited by Article I, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution

Does this apply to Speaker Belicosi and her husband?

Can this be stopped?

There is absolutely no legitimate reason for it.

Imprison them under the 4th.

4th Amendment

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated.

After walling off CA, we can start on NY. After that, we can get back to the southern border.

A thinly disguised “Bill of Attainder”. This will not end well for those pushing this naked hatred for the Constitution and the Rule of Law.
