The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.

The Second Amendment wasn’t written for executive orders and barbed wire around the Capitol—it was written to ensure a well-regulated militia that answers to the people and their states. Today, that balance is being pulled apart. My latest: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/who-really...

Putting the military on the street will lower crime. It does in North Korea, did in Nazi Germany, and in the book 1984. The question isn’t will it lower crime. The question is do we want to be a nation governed like this. Until 6 minutes ago the GOP believed in LOCAL control.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
