unlimited powers
In addition to the serious problems pointed out in the article, this amendment shows Republicans have no respect for the Constitutional principle of limited enumerated federal powers.
The federal government does not have the power under a sane reading of Constitution to regulate the conduct of state and local police forces. The Roberts Court will probably say ok but that's an activist majority who decides on their preferred outcome rather than precedent or the text of the Constitution.
This is an amendment that only a fascist could love.
