Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli has issued a bold directive to federal officers in California, instructing them to ignore Governor Newsom's unconstitutional law banning facial coverings for law enforcement officers. Essayli warned that any state official who interferes with federal operations will face prosecution, emphasizing the supremacy of federal law over state mandates. This comes in response to the escalating violence against federal officers, including a recent deadly attack at an ICE facility in Dallas. Newsom's confusion over his authority under the U.S. Constitution has sparked a showdown between state and federal power, with Essayli standing firm in defense of federal agents' safety and enforcement capabilities. The battle lines have been drawn, and the clash between state and federal authority is set to intensify in California.
