I mean...isn’t that the whole deal with the oathkeepers? They all took a legitimate oath to the constitution/now they’re private citizens who intend to keep it?
Thanks for pointing out something I really should’ve already known. Appreciate it.
ABOUT OATH KEEPERS, according to OathKeepers.org:
Oath Keepers is a non-partisan association of current and formerly serving military, police, and first responders, who pledge to fulfill the oath all military and police take to “defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”
That oath, mandated by Article VI of the Constitution itself, is to the Constitution, not to the politicians, and Oath Keepers declare that they will not obey unconstitutional orders, such as orders to disarm the American people, to conduct warrantless searches, or to detain Americans as “enemy combatants” in violation of their ancient right to jury trial.
ABOUT OATH KEEPERS, according to Wikipedia, which is extremely biased & that fact should always be mentioned:
Oath Keepers is a far-right anti-government militia organization composed of current and former military, police, and first responders who pledge to fulfill the oath that all military and police take in order to "defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” It encourages its members to not obey orders which they believe would violate the U.S. Constitution.
Several organizations that monitor domestic terrorism and hate groups describe it as extremist or radical. The FBI describes the Oath Keepers as a “paramilitary organization” and a “large but loosely organized collection of militia who believe that the federal government has been coopted by a shadowy conspiracy that is trying to strip American citizens of their rights.”
