In response to the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, Democratic congressmen have introduced the “Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act.” This legislation aims to establish federal criminal penalties for private paramilitary activities. This will apparently address a legislative gap identified by Georgetown Law. The act seeks to stop people from intimidating officials, disrupting government proceedings, and impersonating law enforcement.
Senator Ed Markey is a key supporter of the bill. He stressed its urgency by recalling the 2021 Capitol riots. He highlighted the involvement of paramilitary groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers in these events. He said they “pose a serious threat to democracy and the rule of law.”
Representative Jamie Raskin, co-sponsor of the bill, spoke about its purpose. Emphasizing the legislation’s focus, Raskin said, “Our legislation makes the obvious but essential clarification that these domestic extremists’ paramilitary operations are in no way protected by our Constitution.” He claimed it was a “critical effort to protect the rule of law, deter insurrection and defend our democracy.”
Comment:
This is an election year Fear Mongering Campaign.
The 2024 campaign theme for the Dirty Democrat Party is that there is a big threat coming from "paramilitary groups" and "domestic extremists".
There was no insurrection and there is no big threat.
How many years will the crazy Democrat Insurrection Theorists keep banging their drum?
Do people even trust anything that the corrupt Democrats say or do anymore?
