I believe they will try to use removal to get it into federal courts.

Does removal let a federal pardon apply to a state crime, even if it's tried in federal court?
Good question. I suppose Trump doesn't much care, he already attempted to pardon that lady who gave balloting material to Mike Pillow. He'll just go issue the pardons and let the courts sort it out.

Or he could have the DOJ charge all of ICE, get the cases removed to federal court, then do an Eric Adams job on them. That'd be a sight to behold.
