Florida county GOP mulls barring FBI agents and labeling World Health Organization 'terrorists'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The Republican Party in Lee County, Florida is mulling a slew of controversial resolutions, including one that would bar FBI agents from entering the county in protest of the search of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.

Florida Politics reports that the resolutions are being pushed by local right-wing activists, and it seems that Lee County GOP leadership is wary of them.

“They are not necessarily a priority of the party until the party chooses to make them a priority," said Jonathan Martin, the Lee County Republican Party chairman of the resolutions.

Martin also told Florida Politics that many of the resolutions only came up after a four-hour meeting in which many people had already left who might have objected to them.

2. Yup. I was thinking SW Florida when I read the title.

The nuttiest of the nutjobs seem to gravitate to SW Florida.

3. Barring the FBI?

Oh, that'll work out well...

[TheBlackAdder]

10. That's like a town saying they bar the State Police from entering it.

11. Right!

Not smart, but pootin thinks they are, so...

4. WHO will have the power of Martial Law in 2024?

Back in May, the Biden administration worked with WHO and attempted to amend the treaty granting WHO the power of global Martial law and the ability to force masks, lockdowns, and vaccinations, etc., in the case of a future pandemic," he told Florida Politics. "The amendments failed. Now WHO has a draft treaty for 2024 that is seeking to implement the same right to inflict global martial law."

21. If they try, it's obstruction of justice

If the FBI need to investigate something in your county and you try to stop them, seems like it's Obstruction of Justice or interfering with a law officer.

9. Not Surprised

SW Florida is getting scarier every day. Even relatively normal people like my MIL are getting infected with Trumpist bullshit.

13. What about the supremacy clause?

Federal law supersedes state law, and certainly local law.

Federal crimes are federal crimes, regardless of where they happen.

14. Good luck barring the FBI from entering the County.

FBI has jurisdiction which supersedes State and local authority at times.

Certainly a State and local jurisdictions have some ability not to cooperate with Federal Law Enforcement, for example, counties and state LE don't have to report simple violations of immigration to ICE, etc... but if it is something related to domestic terrorism, a federal investigation, etc... you better believe that there will be issues for local authorities that interfere with investigations.

I would say from a strictly political point of view, "Please Proceed Lee County GOP. I think you should TOTALLY do it!"

15. Your party of law-n-order, folks

The GOP sinking further into lawlessness in defense of the former guy.

[Tommy Carcetti]

16. Okay, well good luck there.

A local GOP party resolution isn't worth the paper it's printed on.

[LeftInTX]

20. Really..LOL

It's like when the Texas GOP puts a resolution in their platform to secede. It's freak'n bull shit and the GOP knows this.

17. Florida bank robbers:

Start your engines!!!

18. Barred from where? Their annual conference at Best Western Meeting Room B?

19. Please do it so Democrats can run on this anti law enforcement message nationwide
