A BLM protester was arrested by the FBI for an attempt to damage a police vehicle in what might be the wildest story of the evening. Tim and Adam discuss why the feds would get involved in an NYPD issue, and their conclusions point to more hammer-dropping by Bill Barr’s justice department.
A cop-hating protester was busted by the FBI on Wednesday for attempting to cut the brake line on an NYPD van, officials said.

The bridge.. Part of the interstate, and as with most major bridges, I bet fed money was used.
Police vehicles can be used to transport officers to PAID for TRAINING in other states that would be paid for by taxpayers.
Did you see what she was wearing? She was asking for it.
That's pretty much what you're saying Tim.
BLM really means Burn Loot Murder
I don't care what the woman was wearing still trespassing and as soon as they use those lights at the salt
Humans are the commerce
Interstate commerce, most likely relates to their transporting prisoners, to or from, another state.
State requested fed money and that money was to buy equipment so? Does that count "lol, asking for friend"
not for anything but the cops losing their brake lines they could have hit somebody and killed an innocent family killed a new young driver or killed anyone what if they lost their brakes and they accidentally ran into a crowd of BLM protesters where would we be then then it would be the cops fault no you stupid f**** idiots on the left y'all don't even think that far ahead cuz your brains are broke
The interstate commerce clause is often misused.
It is I287
VERY SOON these freaks, are going to come to the WRONG HOUSE,with their laser,and they are GOING TO GET SHOT,DEAD!
#NOMERCY
New York is run by garbage people. At some point you have to just say these far-left judges have to go, dead or alive.
The feds also have the jurisdiction because Antifa is legally labeled a terrorist group.

No Adam. No peace
The vans travel to other states to transport arrestees to states with warrants in
Interstates and the business conducted on them is a stretch but PD do travel between states for official business in their vehicles. Its a grey area but letter of the law is legit!
The cutting of brakes on a car used in interstate commerce, interferes with interstate commerce and therefore triggers federal jurisdiction. It makes plenty of sense. Telephones are instruments of interstate commerce and have been used to trigger jurisdiction plenty of times. Furthermore, the feds do not need interstate commerce in all cases. Bank robberies, for example, can be prosecuted by state or federal or both (there is no double jeopardy under separate sovereign doctrine). If you are old enough to remember the Rodney King case, you may recall that the cops were found not guilty in California but were later convicted in Federal court.
SIDE POINT: a person is only “presumed” innocent until proven guilty. If they were innocent until proven guilty they could not be charged with crimes. I know its technical but there is a significant difference.
Look up bail reform for the state of New York
