No, only a national police license with strict training requirements and something like the BAR where you can lose your license and therefore your permission to be an officer would work.

Bullshit. This could absolutely be done with every podunk Sheriff’s office in America. But it’s going to require that people stop lionizing cops and that Congress and the states stop allowing the militarization of police forces.
This is actually an existing thing - but I don't believe it applies everywhere. It is called a POST certificate and stands for Peace Officer Standards and Training.
Yeah it needs to be federal. Right now cops get fired for incompetence or abuse and just go to the next police system or or a state over. There needs to be nation wide accountability. In a way that cops and cop retires can't circumvent like they do on many oversight boards.
They should at the very least know the actual law they are trying to enforce. I have seen some crazy YouTube videos where the police didn’t even know what the f they were talking about.
