AMERICA FIRST: Matt Gaetz Warns Against War with Iran

As tensions rise with Iran, America First congressman Matt Gaetz insists on non-interventionism.
After Iran allegedly attacked oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman, neoconservatives have screamed for military action against the Islamic Republic.
However, Gaetz was one of the few Republican officials to caution against military action.
On Twitter, he warned about America’s “Forever War.”
Japanese and Norwegian vessels were attacked. If these nations aren’t calling for war, neither should the U.S. We can’t afford another #ForeverWar.

Instead, the Florida Congressman highlighted the need to defend American borders as opposed to the borders of foreign countries in the Middle East.
Criminal organizations like Mexico’s Gulf Cartel arguably pose a much larger threat to American national security than Iran’s mullahs, which Gaetz highlighted in a subsequent tweet:
“America First” means protecting our border from the ‘Gulf Cartel’ before avenging foreign vessels in the Gulf of Oman. https://t.co/YsOhQr4wB8

During the past few months, Gaetz has remained steadfast in his America First foreign policy, which he highlighted in a well-received foreign policy speech.
When calls for potential intervention in Venezuela where in vogue, Gaetz stood strong and emphasized the need for non-interventionism.
Gaetz’s foreign policy views are indicative of a new movement growing with the GOP that is now focusing more non-interventionism and restoring Middle American values.
Such an approach is a stark contrast to the neoconservative, nation-building of the Bush era.

Merrick Garland Suggests that Getting Rid of Lawsuit Protections is Not a Second Amendment Violation
Garland as AG will be a disaster for the right to bear arms.

If Merrick Garland is nominated as Attorney General, the Second Amendment is in big trouble.
Based on his comments at a Senate hearing on February 22, 2021, Garland made a suggestion that the repeal of lawsuit protections for gun manufacturers is not unconstitutional.
AWR Hawkins of Breitbart News reminded his readers that President Joe Biden campaigned on a platform of repealing the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), which shielded lawful gun manufacturers from lawsuits.
In a previous Breitbart News report, Biden spoke at an MSNBC forum in 2019 alongside gun control organizations such as March for Our Lives where he expressed his support for gun manufacturers to be subject to lawsuits.
At the speech, Biden suggested that the PLCC be repealed. He declared, “No other outfit in history has gotten this kind of protection” and asserted that the legal actions would bring about “change overnight.”
In a subsequent occasion on February 7, 2020, Breitbart News covered Biden’s remarks to a New Hampshire crowd, in which he stated that it was a “mistake” to shield firearms manufacturers from lawsuits. He continued, “The first thing I’m going to do as president is work to get rid of that.”
Later that month, Breitbart News recalled how Biden called out gun manufacturers at a South Carolina rally and boasted, “I’m going to take you down.”
According to a report by The Salt Lake Tribune, Utah Senator Mike Lee asked Garland about his views on removing protections for gun manufacturers. Garland responded, “I have not thought myself deeply about this. I don’t think it raises a Second Amendment issue.”
When he was questioned if he is in favor of Biden’s plans to ban so-called “assault weapons”, Garland responded, “Where there is room under the law for the president’s policies to be pursued, then I think the president is entitled to pursue them.”
Biden’s track record as a gun control proponent is well-documented. From his support of gun-free zones at schools to the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban, Biden is Gun Control Inc.’s guy. With Democrats in control of the House and the Senate, there will most certainly be attempts to ram gun control down our throats. If they can’t beat us legislatively, they will most certainly use the courts to undermine the Second Amendment. Pro-gun organizations should be ready to lawyer up and use whatever means possible to keep courts from destroying our rights.
