Federal Agents, Unmarked Vans, and Federal Overreach
from The Sons Of History · host The Sons Of History
During the Portland riots this year, another odd thing took place - federal agents in unmarked vans were grabbing suspected rioters, tossing them into the van and taking them into custody. Was this an anomaly? Or was this just another instance of federal government overreach? The Sons of History invite constitutional scholar Joe Wolverton to discuss whether the federal government was in the right to do what it did, or if it was another section of Pandora's box that has been opened with the federal government.
