    The U.S. Department of Justice will sue Iowa to block a new immigration
    law criminalizing "illegal reentry" if it remains in effect, a top DOJ
    official wrote to Gov. Kim Reynolds and Attorney General Brenna Bird
    Thursday.

    In a letter obtained by the Des Moines Register, Principal Deputy
    Assistant Attorney General Brian Boynton wrote that the department
    "intends to bring a lawsuit to enforce the supremacy of federal law and
    to enjoin" the new immigration law passed as Senate File 2340.

    "SF 2340 is preempted by federal law and violates the United States Constitution," Boynton wrote.

    He gave the state a deadline of May 7 to suspend enforcement of the law
    before the DOJ takes action.

    Iowa says, "Go fuck yourself".

    Why is it that the Biden DOJ and friends can't enforce the existing rule of law? For example preventing the reentry of said persons in the first place. States should have the right to protect themselves when the Federal
    Government chooses to ignore its own laws. The Supreme Court is starting to address such problems.
