After I reminded our servicemembers of their obligations to uphold their oaths to the Constitution, Donald Trump called for me to be arrested, tried for treason, and executed.

Then the President and his MAGA lackeys launched a bogus FBI inquiry into me and other veteran Members of Congress who dared to speak out against this corrupt administration.

Now, Trump is sending his political cronies at the Justice Department, including former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, to try and threaten and intimidate me.

I served three combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. I took an oath to defend the Constitution as a paratrooper, Army Ranger, and now Member of Congress. It’s a lifetime oath, and I intend to keep it.

Donald Trump has picked a fight with the wrong people. I refuse to be intimidated, and I won’t stand for our democracy to be dismantled. None of us want to live in an America where the President can weaponize the government against their perceived enemies.

As the situation in this country grows more alarmingly violent each day, I see how important independent journalism is. It's so obvious now, when I listen to corporate mainstream media, how I'm hearing one sanitized side of each story. Example: this is a country of laws. If Renee had got out of the car and let herself be arrested as a protester, she would still be alive. If it's a country of laws, why was she shot to death, three shots, for driving away when she had committed no crime. Nobody makes that point. If we all allow ourselves to be arrested for no reason, we're living in Nazi Germany, not a country of laws. The only way we'll ever be free is to break free from corporate control of this country. It was supposed to be a country of the people, by the people, for the people.

Getting money out of politics is so critical to our republic’s survival.
