Im sure that the left would love to have a federal takeover of local police.

When did Obama "take over"?
No, Feds cannot just wily-nilly take over. The State has to request the help.

they did it in a few dozen major urban centers iirc

Sheriff is technically the absolute law in each county, but they wouldn't turn away help if stuff was going down.

The feds need to stay the hell out of state government. State government needs to do its fricking job.

no, there were take overs for civil rights violations or something along those lines.

Well, they can charge Federal Civil Rights violations whenever they want to. But, they cannot just send in the troops and take over security, etc. They CAN protect federal property (as was done recently)

I agree.
People in these communities need to learn a lesson and fight for their lives and their communities. The federal government needs to stay out.
The feds can and should absolutely go after the organizers and funders of these events and charge people with all kinds of things.
But federal troops stationed in cities as replacements for local law enforcement? That scares me as much as these Marxist lunatics if not more so.
Think about it this way:
If Trump lines the streets with federal troops and then loses the election all of those troops now fall under Biden’s control. You willing to take that risk?

I wish Trump would declare that anyone damaging property / burning property during a POLITICAL demonstration is a TERRORIST and anyone supporting, hiding, etc those people are terrorist supporters. I think the 'rules of engagement' for a terrorist committing a terrorist act on American soil can be dealt with by lethal force.
I'd also charge every person caught doing these acts as terrorists. I think I'd stay home and watch on TV if the stakes were that high.

Obama did? Can Trump take over for these towns with terrorist DA's?
He could. But should he?
Most of you call yourselves conservatives but when times are tough you act like liberals. Expecting intervention from the federal government.
Your okay with conservatism when it's beneficial to you.
Trump is probably assessing this on two fronts. He is a Republican President, so he has to at least favor conservative values of state when necessary. States should be the ones putting down riots like this, not the federal government. Trump knows that it's mostly left leaning places rioting, so he isn't losing much from an election perspective.
If you really believe in "states rights" (which most on here actually don't, it's just a convienent reason). Then you have to acknowledge all states ARE NOT going handle things the same way.

Share the knowledge!
Birmingham, AL has been chosen as one of 6 states the feds will use to pilot the nationalization of local and state law enforcement agencies. Touted as initiative to ‘build community trust’ between citizens and local police, this takeover follows the age-old Marxist pattern of cloaking despotism within a faux security blanket.
The other pilot cities include Ft. Worth, Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, Stockton, Birmingham and Gary, Indiana.

is a partnership between federal officials and criminal justice experts focused on providing training, policy and research to address distrust between citizens and law enforcement.
1) The locals asked for this program
2) It was funding / training...not Fed LEO's "taking over"
It was a money wasting, stupid policy bullshite program. But, not at all what you are suggesting

the point specifically i intended to make with the thread is can rogue DA's be overridden.
Rogue DA's can be overriden (sic) by State Attorneys General and by the local citizen's action. But, no..unless the DA violates the accused federal civil rights....not a federal issue

Can't the FEDS take over local law enforcement?
Not sure.
But why would you want to?
DEMs aren’t requesting bc they want Trump to look bad.
But it’s blowing up in their faces. Have Don Lemon saying on air, the rioting needs to stop. Not bc of the damage to property or lively hoods being destroyed, but bc it’s helping Trump in the polls.
