“A Democrat in Congress is urging Americans to ‘bring actual weapons’ against Elon Musk as the head of DOGE continues to expose massive amounts of spending waste in the federal government,” World Net Daily reported Wednesday. “U.S. Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., told CNN on Wednesday that Musk is ‘harming the American public in an enormous way, and what I think is really important and what the American public want, is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight. This is an actual fight for democracy, for the future of this country.'”
So… basically, engage in armed insurrection to prevent government waste, abuse, corruption, and fraud from being identified…? Unlike the J6 “seditious conspirators” Democrats have breathlessly painted as Nazis and domestic terrorists…?
Just what we need from an immigrant whose family came here from Peru ostensibly to enjoy the superior recognition of freedom this copuntry offered…
This is hardly an isolated incident.
Earlier this month, AmmoLand related the words of a Democrat official in Pennsylvania, calling for Trump supporters, presumably all 77 million of them, to be “extraconstitutionally… hanged by the neck until dead,” noting the climate of hate being fostered by national party leaders. And Thursday, this column reported on still Kweisi after all these years Democrat Rep. Mfume of Maryland exhorting his followers to start a “street fight over Musk’s efforts to identify government waste, abuse, corruption, and fraud.
Since doing that ought to be a goal of all loyal Americans, especially those in the legislature entrusted and privileged to represent the people paying for it all, some questions naturally come to enquiring minds:
Why?
Why are they so desperately angry, ready to drop all pretenses of “friends across the aisle” civility and call for street violence?
Against people they’re trying to disarm…?
Garcia is no exception.
Aside from never seeing a gun he didn’t want to grab, he is especially invested in imposing prior restraint restrictions on ammunition. And all the major gun-grab groups agree.
“With so much on the line this November, it’s important that we protect our majority in the House by electing gun safety champions from coast to coast—champions like Mayor Robert Garcia,” Giffords gushed in its endorsement of him. “We know he has the courage to act to end gun violence, and the people of Southern California deserve a legislator who will always put their well-being first.”
“The gun sense majorities in Congress and statehouses across the country have delivered life-saving progress on gun safety – and now is the time to keep going by re-electing our champions and growing these majorities,” Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, said in a joint statement with Everytown endorsing Garcia and like-minded candidates for office. “These gun sense champions can count on a grassroots army of Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action volunteers to put everything on the line to get them elected in November.”
“As an openly gay and Latino man, he knows that easy access to firearms makes hate lethal,” the Brady Campaign declared. “As a member of the House Gun Violence Prevention Task Force, he has cosponsored bipartisan legislation to expand Brady Background Checks (H.R. 715), legislation to ban assault weapons (H.R. 698) and Ethan’s Law (H.R. 660) to mandate safe firearm storage nationwide, among others.”
One might also ask if its intentional that none of the “commonsense gun safety” groups, ever active on social media platforms like Elon Musk’s X.com, has seen fit to disassociate themself from and condemn Garcia’s (or Mfune’s, or any other rabble-rousing Democrat’s) call for weaponized political violence.
And that makes another question fair: What is it they really want (if they ever get what they’re going after)?

This isn’t the first time, and it won’t be the last, but garcia stepped way over the line and should be dealt with…
These people are really pushing the FAFO envelope.
So is the Secret Service and DOJ going to arrest him?
Isn’t he threatening to kill the sitting President and a government employee (Musk)?…
Or are Republicans like always going to allow their voters to be jailed for peacefully protesting, while Democrats can get away with calling for violence?
can we deport this piece of trash
I love it. The whole time O’biDUMB was in office, republicans were saying, hold your horses, don’t do anything rash, use the courts and the law to resolve things because the left wants us to attack so they can claim martial law and take out any MAGA or conservative republicans. Now, they are saying they are going to attack. So since the shoe is on the other foot, will we be the ones to use F15’s, tactical nukes and drones to take care of them? Turnabout is fair play, isn’t it? I would say yes only because I am tired… Read more »
again, the progressive mindset is a mental illness. i call it the dichotomy of the leftist mind, that what they think is the polar opposite of the reality we see in everyday life. kind of like gender dysphoria a few years ago was considered a mental illness, now it is all the rage. either you are sane or you are insane.
if they got what they wanted, they wouldn’t want it anymore.
What weapons are these Democrat clowns bringing to the battle ? Their pride flags ?
Isn’t it time for the FBI to visit these people who are making threats just like the Biden administration did to school parents and prolife protesters?
So he wants to disarm me then kill me with a firearm. I don’t think so.
I’m sorry, but people are right, republicans will sit and do nothing. If it wasn’t for Trump, nothing would get done. Re-elections, infighting, egos, and who knows what else. Look at Murkawski who worries more about the friggin name of a mountain, and McConnel who by voting against his own party’s nominee for a cabinet position, showed himself to be one of the many rinos in the congress.
The left does know one thing much better than the right,…..they stand by their cause much more faithfully and united.
