My same sentiment on this horrible incident.
The National Guard shooting in DC is a tragedy, especially when you consider that there’s ZERO reason for them to be there.

If you want to live under a king, you ultimately wish to be a slave to that person’s commands.
If you want to live under a democracy, you wish to be free to do anything that’s allowed under the law.
The people who want authoritarianism don’t feel confident enough to live with real freedom.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

As a retiring but still sitting member of the House, MTG has the opportunity to read into the public record documents that otherwise could not be released... and would be protected by the constitution's speech or debate clause from prosecution.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

This is vile. Jamal Khashoggie was an American journalist who was brutally killed and dismembered by MBS for being critical of the regime.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
