Oath Keepers founder, Stewart Rhodes is in Virginia training counties on how to form local militias. Has the gun-grabbing left awakened a Constitutional giant?

“The Congress shall have Power To …provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions….”
ARTICLE I, SECTION 8, CLAUSE 15
The idea of a Militia is not new. In fact, it was written into our Founding Documents.
Over the years, however, the idea of forming a militia, or in some cases even uttering the word, has been stigmatized to the point of absurdity.
It seemed for a time that every fringe group who had a beef with one form of corrupt governance or another were members of some kind of “militia.”
The pinnacle of the stigmatization being the alleged militia involvement in the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995.
It should surprise no one that the ruling class would want to squash, and even attempt to criminalize, the idea of a militia.
Anything that takes power from them and puts it in the hands of the people is simply repulsive to their very nature. And, of course, they must try to stop it.
Recently, however, the incessant desire by the left to take our lawful firearms has sparked new interest in the Constitution, the Second Amendment and more specifically, the idea of a Constitutional Militia.
Stewart Rhodes, founder of Oath Keepers, is a fellow who always runs towards tyranny and mobilizes for action.
The recent threat of gun confiscation in Virginia has, once again, put Rhodes and his nationwide group, Oath Keepers, squarely inside the “belly of the beast.”
Stewart Rhodes is known for being a “man of action” and his presence in Virginia this time around is no different, as Rhodes is already networking with rural law enforcement to help form local, Constitutional militias.
Stewart was gracious enough to join me for an interview from Richmond, Virginia recently, the result of which can be accessed below.
“The Constitution confers upon Congress the power to impeach and thereafter remove from office the President, 1 Vice President, and other federal officers–-including judges–-on account of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. In exercising this power, the House and the Senate have distinct responsibilities, with the House determining whether to impeach and, if impeachment occurs, the Senate deciding whether to convict the person and remove him from office”. The House impeachment process did not determine that there were any crimes committed by President Trump for which he could be impeached. Rather, the Congress exceeded it’s power to impeach the President as part of the plot to overthrow the sovereignty of “We The People”, destroy our Constitutional Republic and the People’s right to vote. Pelosi, Schumer and the Democrat/Communists must be held accountable for their treasonous acts. They have betrayed the “Public Trust” and dishonored their oath of office. The Founders provided for an armed militia to defend against the abuse of power by a tyrannical dictatorship. The People’s sovereignty, right to vote and right to keep and bear arms must not be infringed. The conspirators plotting to destroy our Constitutional Republic must be removed from office by the vote or the militia, if necessary. Take Back America.
State Law does not supersede the Federal Constitution, if State law did supersede the constitution, there would no need for a Federal Government. What we would have is 50 countries, instead of states, The States are part of the United States. Each state has its own State Constitution, but those Constitutions do not supersede the Federal Constitution.
