Kinzinger Shows More Ignorance on Second Amendment in Lame ‘Gotcha’ Attempt

That Kinzinger is evidently unaware of this (or aware but deliberately lying by omission about it) is no surprise. [More]

Old Lies for New

That’s great, being lectured on 2A by a gun-grabber who thinks he’s found a “Gotcha!”

Except the National Guard is not that militia. Never was.

As the Subcommittee on the Constitution of the United States Senate Ninety-Seventh Congress observed:

These commentators contend instead that the amendment’s preamble regarding the necessity of a “well regulated militia… to a free state” means that the right to keep and bear arms applies only to a National Guard. Such a reading fails to note that the Framers used the term “militia” to relate to every citizen capable of bearing arms, and that Congress has established the present National Guard under its power to raise armies, expressly stating that it was not doing so under its power to organize and arm the militia.

He’s just counting on younger people not remembering the old lies.

Casus Belli

I’m not sure why Gavin Newsome [sic] doesn’t activate the rest of his army guard to prevent the president from it or force him to overrule it…. Then fight on the second amendment guaranteeing a state a right to a militia. How can a state have a militia if the president can simply federalize it against the direct wishes of the governor [More]

Ah, yes, a true champion of the Second Amendment

Just make sure you guys don’t shoot yourselves.

False Premises

These 6 members of the Jan. 6 committee are up for reelection in 2022 [More]

They’re all in safe seats, so the DSM is trying to make it look like because their wins are guaranteed, what they’re doing is a popular and winning strategy.

The only political outcomes that really count here are what happened to traitors Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, and why.

Axis Sally 2.0

Instead, Cheney and fellow truth-telling Republicans — such as Rice, Rep. Adam Kinzinger (Ill.) and Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker — can form a coalition for democracy with Democrats, independents and other patriotic Republicans. That’s right: They should work to defeat Republicans who perpetrate the “big lie” and threaten future democratic elections. [More]

Well, if “conservative” Jennifer Rubin and The Washington Post think so…

Advance Republicans by electing Democrats! It sounds like there’s an Orwell slogan in there somewhere.
