8. The current "feds" aren't following their own laws

So we are in a different world unless/until the courts get it straightened out. But federal employees also have to follow "state law" in general.

E.g., say, a state changes their vehicle codes and now forbids "making a right turn when a light is red" and a fed ignores that while in a GOV (Government Owned Vehicle) during work hours... The fed is not suddenly "immune" from breaking that state law.

A bunch of former feds, like Mark Meadows, were indicted for violating STATE LAWS (in both AZ & GA).
