An open letter to the U.S. Congress

When the Next President Comes for Your Guns, Remember Who Opened the Door

Oh Republicans. Let me walk you through what you just did, real slow—because clearly, you didn’t think this one through. Trump’s GOP lawyers stood before the Supreme Court and argued—badly and with a straight face—that the President should be able to enforce any policy he wants, even if it’s unconstitutional. And if you don’t like it? Tough. You have to sue, individually,after your rights are already gone. One case at a time. No more nationwide blocks. No more court protections that stop abuse before it starts. That’s not checks and balances. That’s unchecked power. And y’all clapped like it was the Pledge of Allegiance. But wait! Justice Sotomayor asked the one question that should’ve made even the most camo-covered, flag-waving crowd pause: “What if a president sends the military to take everyone’s guns? Do we just wait for every person to sue?” Here’s the kicker: You were fine when it was immigrants, protestors, and voters losing their rights. But now? It could be you. Imagine ICE agents showing up at your door—not looking for undocumented families, but for your guns. Still clapping? And unless you’ve got a whole lot of money for lawyers, good luck. Because under Trump’s plan, that’s what it’ll take just to keep what used to be protected. Kiss that hunting rifle—and maybe your MAGA flag—goodbye, and get ready, because your freedom’s next: they can make you wear a mask, get vaccinated, and attend a DEI training. And don’t you dare forget: once you hand this power to him, the next president—maybe one of those “radical socialist Antifa vegan drag queens” you scream about—gets to use it too. Then what? They take your guns. Shut down your church. Ban diesel. And God help us… outlaw truck nuts. This isn’t protecting America. It’s setting it on fire so you can feel like a hero in a red MAGA hat. Wake up. You’re not defending freedom—you’re destroying it. Just to grovel at the feet of a man who thinks the Revolutionary War was won by seizing airports.
