Summary

This week, the Senate passed a bipartisan gun control package that includes funding to pass red flag laws to allow for the confiscation of firearms if a person is showing valid red flags. Oh wait… that’s not at all how it’s going to happen. In fact, the same government that repeatedly uses its power to target people based on their political opinions will continue to just that. Liz pulls back the curtain on how the Left will actually use this new legislation to take your freedom. Plus, these are the 10 (yes, TEN) Republicans who supported this gun control package.

Okay, so the Senate of the United States has passed a, what they're calling a bipartisan

0:05.2

gun control package. They did get 10 Republicans to vote with them, which is why they're calling

0:09.6

it bipartisan. That's a filibuster proof majority. We'll get into all of that in a minute.

0:13.8

But one of the hallmarks of this package is the fact that it funds red flag laws.

0:18.3

And red flag laws are, of course, a, at a front to our constitutional rights. They deprive

0:23.2

the individual due process because what, what a red flag law is, is it means that a family member,

0:28.3

a friend, a member, a coworker, someone, someone associated or around a person who is displaying,

0:34.6

perhaps valid red flags can report that person to the police and the police can confiscate that

0:40.0

person's firearms without adjudicating it first. They, they can take that gun away without

1:07.6

that there needs to be a better structure or a better infrastructure in our nation that allows us

1:14.5

as citizens, as community members and as family members to help people who are displaying very

1:21.2

legitimate red flags that can be indicators that, you know, their red flags could lead to them

1:26.8

committing some kind of violence and, you know, an atrocity like we saw in Buffalo, New York or in

1:31.5

Newvalde, Texas. There does need to be something done. But the congressional answer to this,

1:37.6

this red flag law is not the way to do it. And hear me out on this because why would we trust

1:44.0

the government with red flag laws to take away, to suspend one of our constitutional rights without

1:49.3

due process of law when the same government, either bureaucrats or elected politicians, it
