‘Then we need bodyguards for everybody’
By Bob Unruh
U.S. Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., has a reputation for being a type of street fighter.
He’s often brash and coarse. And confrontational. His history includes violating a federal conflict-of-interest law by failing to properly disclose stock shares his wife got for advising a financial technology trust company. He lashes out angrily at those with whom he disagrees. He makes rash statements.
And he jumped aboard his party’s wild claims that President Donald Trump was an “insurrectionist” for the few hundred people who rioted on Jan. 6, 2021. He actively promoted his demands, aligning with those of then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, that Congress had to impeach Trump.
And now he appears to be planning his own “insurrection.”
That would be his plans to have Congress deny Trump the presidency should he win in November.
