- CLASS WITH JAMIE RASKIN episode 2: Jamie Raskin takes on the rightwing fallacy that the Second Amendment gives people the power to form private militias to resist federal tyranny and violently overthrow the government.
SUPPORT DEMOCRACY SUMMER: jamieraskin.com/democracy-sum...
00:00 Does the 2nd Amendment give people the right to overthrow the government with insurrections?
04:56 This interpretation of the constitution is an excuse for not passing gun reform
11:15 The constitution treats insurrection as a serious and dangerous offense
14:36 Forming a militia and attacking the government is unconstitutional and qualifies as treason
20:03 The constitution doesn’t even guarantee non-violent civil disobedience
24:34 Insurrectionists are not “hostages”
27:10 The 2nd Amendment is not unlimited
31:46 Q&A start
33:54 Our lone-wolf shooters are anything but a well-regulated militia
37:00 Why did conservatives change their tune in the last 15 years?
40:15 They say gun violence is due to “too many doors”
42:21 The say gun violence is due to a mental health crisis, but then do nothing about it
44:36 What is the upside to the NRA taking extreme stances against reform?
47:33 Closing message

By the end of President Trump's second term, Raskin and Cheney will be in a Federal prison for Treason and election fraud !! in the same cell with Adam Schiff !!
Oddly you are the Best hope for the USA
Where would Americans get the idea about overthrowing a government they thought was tyrannical? Perhaps they have also read the Declaration of Independence and saw the part that reads, "...it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government..."
But I guess they were wrong to think the authors of the constitution would have created the 2nd Amendment without a single thought of a tyrannical government or the possibility such a government would ever exist, in America, that would actively work against the will of the people and become destructive to the pursuit of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
After all, the American Revolution was such a peaceful time in America's history. No wonder the founders of the Constitution forgot all about that and created the 2nd Amendment to preserve the right to go duck hunting with your 4-year-old.
I'm not suggesting the Republicans are right. But neither is Raskin.
Absolutely wonderful class! This is such a great idea.
Thank you both very much
💙💙👍👍💙💙😊
Ill tell u something mabe Jamie knows mabe he dont ? But they say there are no coincidences . Well ive got a message tday , i have some gifts / channeling and its putting things together that some miss , ok ill lay it out short and simple .
Trump come on seen when Obama did ( birth cert) then got elected by convincing ppl he wasnt part of the probs in this country which caught on with racist , fast forward to jared kushner $3 billion from saudis then jan 6th then stolen classified docos , then saudi sponsored golf tourny at marlago while docos were there , then all of the hitleresk rhetoric and trump talkn up dictators and sociopathic country leaders russia , then the hating of nato , and maga spreading tryn to defund cia / fbi after running on backn law enforcement , then take the fact why does ppl like putin an maga and dictators dislike nato ? And maga how they are all anti allies / nato . Why would someone on world stage want to remove or destroy allies and nato ? Ill tell you !! Selfish nefarious motivations . Then consider radical moves to remove books abortion banning wanting more births but less welfare ! To put extra strain on the already struggling systems in this country which maga hasnt stop doing even alittle , take the fact that radical groups like taliban and north korea and then add mega corporations $$$$ and tax breaks then after trump on tape sayn how nixon sold govnt docos for big $$ after being thrown outa office then the saudis clearly had a chance and almost certainly had a look at important docos , then trumps legal probs increasing then Netanyahu backing trump in many ways maga “ pretending to support Israel “ then all of the sudden hamas attacks Israel and war breaks out all while trump supporters legal matters were increasing all while maga reps in house backing one lie after another n not doing a dam thing for the ppl pushing for shut downs . It looks to me like a very very very strong move to start a “ world order “ by a conglomerate of sociopathic / psychopathic , leaders and occultist / followers very powerful ppl’s . I mean mega corporations price gouging the hell outa ppl in this country because biden threatening to remove tax breaks and raising minimum wage tryn to remove welfare . These are all dictator authoritarian hunger games level moves ! Imagine how a scenario like hunger games would occur ? . Take my word this is their aim ! Russia want Ukraine for more bodies in military and $$ and land but mostly for military might than anything he wants to destroy nato which i know has had their issues but on the world stage allies are crucial especially with militaries the size of china and russia and add radical islamist as a cooperative force with the sociopaths . Remember birds of a feather they flocketh together ! Maga is more like radical islam and kim jun un than anything like britains monarchy or alike ! Ppl that support maga around the world are all the same do as i say ! Not as i do ! They are controlling manipulating destructive forces ! Backed by very very greedy powerful ppl from around the world . Laugh if you want but i called out trump when i was a teen in the late 70s im 61 now . Im not cray cray haha it just fits all to dam well ! Im almost positive saudis got a look at many of them documents i know secret service was present on some level but they never come forth and said nothing bout them being there ;( secret service is supposed to secure entire property regularly why were these rooms never checked why did they not say anything bout the docos there ? Did they ? No reports of it ? Something is up something stinks !! There is no question maga has been doing its very very best to further destabilize us from multiple angles . @Briantylercohn and there is no question
Radical Islamist, Putin and Kim Jung on and some of China’s leaders are sociopathic borderline psychopaths ! Not complete psychopaths
Jamie Raskins should run for president in 28! He would be a great president!
Right? he's the most impressive Congressional Rep or indeed any figure in govt that i've ever seen: articulate, educated, devoted. And in the midst of it all, he's teaching a class! As if he didn't have enough to do!
Unfortunately an abnormal voice is currently a requirement to run for president.

Jamie is brilliant and well spoken and I agree he would be a great leader xx

To upset a Liberal tell them a lie.
To upset a Trump supporter tell them the truth.
Awesome comment !!! 👏👏👏
Indeed.
To be fair the truth pisses me tf off but I do like this statement
True! (Get it😂)
Bravo!!
It’s an absolute travesty that a man of this education and intelligence has to deal with MTG.
They both love acting on the same stage with each other....
All these actors do is act helpless, even with a majority, spew big word speeches to deaf ears and empty chairs, yet only lame duck legislation going on lately 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😡😡😡😡😡
@@kimberlyboyd5899you reminded me of Gaetz, someone who supports Russia, reading Dr. Seuss to use his time to speak on the floor of the Senate.
Congressman Raskin had me at "I just want them to read it." That seems to be the biggest misunderstanding that magas and most republicans have regarding the second amendment. I'm 16 years old and the youngest of eight in my family. Both of my parents were in the military, as is my oldest brother. We have all been routinely educated on this issue, as well as the dangers of any firearm. My dad always makes sure his are locked up where not only we can't get to them (out of curiosity), but that we wouldn't want to even be curious. My mom did the same before she passed away. I'm glad to hear such a well thought out and accurate description of the terms of the 2nd amendment. Thank you to Congressman Raskin and to you Brian for bringing this to the attention of viewers.
You are in a wonderful family!
Looking forward to your leadership.
The problem comes when people let billionaire media moguls, the NRA, Russian spies and corrupt, deceptive politicians tell them what they want the 2nd amendment to say, as always, just follow the money.
Everyone must re-read the Constitution.
Same - that's the way I was raised. When I was in my early teens my dad got out his rifle and taught me how to use the scope to shoot, and how to use a handgun, and with some of the gravest seriousness he ever had told me that guns are for hunting only what you'll eat, or for self- defense, and to have the goal of never ever having to shoot a fellow human being. He said to never, ever, ever use a gun to intimidate anyone, and to never point one at someone unless there was no other option except to (excuse the bluntness) end their life to keep from being killed.
People were to be treated in a way that represents who we chose to be, not how that person acts, and that we're all responsible for each other.
That's, aside from an understanding of the 2nd Ammendment in full context, why Americans need to protect against radicalism whether it's white supremacy, anti-Semitism like were seeing in these river to the sea chants on college campuses, attacks on n Muslims and Asians, etc. When we look out for each other, the radicals stay on the fringe where they belong.
I’m a 72 year old retired attorney. I watch Jamie Raskin, Adam Schiff, Eric Swallwell, Jared Moskowitz, Jasmine Crockett, Dan Goldman and so many other democratic congressmen at work in the House and senate every day. These congressmen are intelligent, informed, and VERY effective. I am so proud of them. They make me proud to be American. They are saving our democracy every day. I love them - really love them. They will go down in history as heroes.
Amen!
Indeed!
I'm glad you included Jasmine Crocket in your list.
Indeed these men and women are inspiring.
Democratic Congress persons are crown jewels in the midst of MAGA's cheap imitations.
This is THE guy. He represents everything a true politician is supposed to be as the founding fathers intended. While most MAGA Republicans haven't read the constitution, this man is a constitutional scholar of the highest order.
I agree, and he also represents the epitome of a true citizen who knows and upholds the constitution. We would be better off as a nation if his wisdom would have been a PSA every Sunday evening on all channels when I was a kid.
Absolutely!
I fully agree!
I’m glad he’s on our side!!
@@ittt6339 typical higher ranking Dem; facts, truth, logic and intelligence = all things that MAGA trash hate
Jamie should be on the Supreme Court. He knows the constitution better than our current members
I hope the US voters elect more representatives like Jamie Raskin, Katie Porter, and Adam Kinzinger
And Jasimne Crockett, Jared Moskowitz.
I second that in a heartbeat!!! You Got My VOTE Rep. Raskin! ⚖️🗽🏛🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Jamie Raskin is the most intelligent politician in government. Puts Republicans to shame. His knowledge, wisdom, integrity and energy is just amazing.Will be an incredible president.
There has never been a Republican who had those qualities in one package. Unlike the recalcitrant, rascally, and repugnant Republicans, Jamie Raskin is adroit at taskin', not baskin'.
If he would agree to run for POTUS, he would be a great president. However, he has expressed his desire to stay in Congress, as he feels that is where he can best serve. We need him there too.
agreed 1000% ....the is a KNIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY )'(
Oh my friend I just posted that I wanted him to run for president couldn't agree with you more especially while listening to this
Swalwell / Buttigieg 2028?
Enough is ENOUGH! Americans understand that we have a DUTY this November, not only to hold Trump accountable for his Insurrection, but to REJECT Trumpism entirely. 🇺🇸
💙
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Agree 100%
ENTIRELY
I'm an independent voter that believes in gun rights .... how come I believe in gun rights for protection but, unlike those on the right... I don't believe civilians should have access to weapons of war?.... I just don't get that at all.
My 14 yr old granddaughter was murdered by an unhinged loon with a gun, thank you for speaking up on all of this, Mr Raskin!
Ask yourself why we no longer put unhinged loons in the loony bin?
I hope Congressman Raskin runs for President in the near future! He’s such an incredible speaker and leader of our democracy. Thank you for this great collaboration; I look forward to more!🇺🇸💙🌊#VoteBlue2024🌊💙🇺🇸
Jamie Raskin for POTUS 2028.
He would a great leader!
Id like to see Pete Buttigieg as pres but Jamie first
@jenbobcat387: “ … but Jamie first “. Jamie Raskin … POTUS 2028 …
Pete Buttigieg … as his Vice President ⚠️
2024
The Democratic Party has a wealth of intelligent, articulate, get-things-done takent.
Thank you, Congressman Raskin, from safe guarding democracy against Trump and MAGA. I am so glad you are feeling better.
Brian Tyler Cohen, I am grateful for your presentation of Representative Raskin.
CHECK OUT HIS CH.
But why didn't this guy ever mentioned that Donald Trump is the shepherd and honorable man saving America? Uprisings to protect Donald Trump is the main role as stated in every part of the constitution.

Raskin is a political history genius and one of the best humans on this planet right now.
Mr Raskin...thank you for providing sanity to our world.
Yes! Thank you!
I'll second that!
We Americans are SO FORTUNATE to have a senator as brilliant and pro democracy as Jamie Raskin
Raskin is a Congressman.
He does seem more than just a Congress member.
He's a certified constitutional scholar.
Yep, Mr. Raskin is a congressperson, though a very senatorial congressperson!
@@catherinebaum9185 Correct, but compared to most other congressmen... compared to most senators... compared to the Supreme Court justices... Raskin towers above them all in stature.
💙🇺🇸This is great‼️ So many Americans have forgot or were asleep during history class. We all need a refresher course. Thank you Sen Raskin. U R an American treasure💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
Someone. Said. That. Democrat. Senator. Run. I'm. 28. Hell. No. Right. Now
God bless you Jamie Raskin, we need a dozen more like you. 💙
Does the Special Olympics need a football team??
I’m Canadian and love Jamie Raskin. No republicans can outshine this man.
So that many got charged and are in jail so why is the mastermind behind it is still loose.
Agreed, With Much Respect Sir, 🫡🇨🇦
Lawyers and the courts. Delays.
Good Gotdam Question, And I Am Deadass Serious‼️‼️

Exactly
Jamie Raskin hero of the republic 🇺🇸
Yes he is!

Absolutely
Makes me proud to be from the great state of Maryland!!!
@ChrisJones-fz7ko you are blessed to have him 😊😊
Thank you Congressman Raskin for all you do, and Brian Cohen too 🔵
They put on a great show of lies.
We definitely Need You Jamie where you are right now but What a Fabulous Supreme Court Justice you would be!🇺🇸💙🎉
What a great President he would make.
Jamie Raskin should be our vice president or even run for president if Biden can not continue. Jamie Raskin is a national treasure and a true patriot!
If Biden couldn't continue, VP Harris would become POTUS and She would pick a VP
I admire Raskin and believe he is exactly where he needs to be.
Love Rep Jamie Raskin; he’s a brilliant scholar and a credit to our Democratic Congress💙🇺🇸
And hopefully be able to pass some new amendments to the constitution so this nonsense doesn’t happen again.

Mr. Raskin is such a gentleman and genius. Keep up the excellence sir 👏 🙌 .

@@colinwisner1016He has a lot of likes because he lays out the truth unlike space lazers,lies,fake electors by Maga garbage.😮
I'm a Canadian but I follow American Politics very closely and I would just like to say that I think Jamie Raskin is a actual Hero, we all know that he showed up to congress after suffering a massive personal loss just before Jan 6 because it was his duty and he continued to go to Congress and stand up to MAGA after Jan 6 and during his fight with cancer. Jamie Raskin is a person that when he speaks, you listen and I always enjoy listening to him and find him to be a great inspiration when dealing with my own struggles.
Well said!
Amen
Also a Canadian. I agree with what you said. Raskin is the wise man that everyone would want to have on their side.
Thank you, I admire and respect Jamie Raskin also, he’s a great asset in the fight to keep our democracy against domestic and foreign threats! Vote 💙💙💙💙💙💙
I also like and admire our Rhode Island senator Sheldon Whitehouse for continuing his work to expose “dark money” influencing our laws through some members of congress (republican party) and trying to overthrow our government and democracy!
Much respect to Brian and Congressman Raskin! Very informative!💙❤️
Man do we need more Raskin!!! Thank you for creating this…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
When we regain the house they should set standards for people running for Congress and the presidency
Agreed. Maybe cover norms, rules and reasons for dismissal? : o )
That’s wildly problematic and a prime example of the slippery slope. Who decides the qualifications and who decides which potential candidates meet those qualifications? If a party has a majority can they now effectively disqualify their opposition?
Yes, time to update the Constitution.
@@ecbrown6151 well no indictments or insurrection for one. Police and FBI agents have standards why can't our government
Congress once had honorable standards. They have been removed to satisfy greed on both sides….”We the people…”
I'm outside of America, but this Jamie Raskin should be President.
So right. People have problems reading.🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I’ve thought this for quite a while
UK here as well, and this man should be president !
America being America, they don't give good people the levers of control
2028? Actually, we need him where he is currently! Isn't he amazing?
Agreed from Canada 🇨🇦
Appreciate the knowledge Mr. Raskin.
TRUTH TO POWER!
Thank you for your
fearless contribution to America Mr Raskin. You are a credit to this country
Congressman Jamie Raskin = a *_true_* Representative of the people.
(Also a personal hero & one of my favourite US politicians.)
Ditto
Ditto!!!
Same
I think he is a traitor to America, and he will be on the wrong side of the history books, I hope God has no mercy on his soul.
I am a 69-year-old staunch conservative. Mr. Raskin, I hope I live long enough to vote for you as our president.
Bravo to you for listening.
I commend you for being open to conversations like this, and I’ll take it as a hopeful sign that other conservatives are quietly doing the same.
What does it mean to be a staunch conservative? Since Reagan, conservatives have voted to give tax cuts to the rich and large corporations (trickle down failed btw), to weaken unions, to get rid of environmental regulations, to get rid of social security and medicare, to vote against LGBT rights, to make it harder for minorities to vote, and to allow the wealthiest people and corporations to have a greater impact on election outcomes and laws. The only president to balance the budget was Bill Clinton.
I believe in country over party, for sure!
As a 70 year old hippie from the 60's, I hope so too! My favorite politician...even more so than Bernie or Liz! Jamie Raskin is not only the best educated on the Constitution and the history of our government, but he has an awesome gift for speaking clearly, calmly and (most importantly) easily understand. Like the best teachers, professors and professional speakers we have been blessed with.
Thank you Jamie, for your dedication to our country, government, and standing up for democracy against the most dangerous threat in our history.
Brian, this addition of Class with Jaime Raskin is an outstanding addition to your podcasts and efforts to provide truth and logic to Americans.
Raskins’ dedication to freely offering these moments to explain the TRUE MEANINGS & REASONING of the founding fathers is PRICELESS!
As one who has been drawn to the concepts of fairness under the law,.. if applied with honest justice, I am so thankful to these lessons.
Raskins’ clear, logical and obviously sincere wish to share his knowledge makes one wonder if a majority of the Supreme Court have really read and understood the 2nd amendment.
Thank you for making such clarity available. These will be shared widely.
And Brian, since you are also making Spanish language podcasts, I hopeyou will be able to have these classes translated. I am not Spanish but I have many Spanish speaking friends who need to hear this. They are not getting true information from republicans who only want their vote.
Thank you, Mr Jamie Raskin! You are my hero! I appreciate you immensely and love the work you do for us in Congress, especially working against the evils of the distorted views of the MAGA. God bless you and yours always. 💐🙏🏽💞
Thank you, Brian! Loved this class! Love your channel. We need you and appreciate your work. Never stop! 💐🙏🏽💞
Vote BLUE to save our democracy. 💙
I’d vote for Jamie Raskin in 2028 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
YES
I’d vote for him now!!
I'd vote for Jamie Raskin 2024
he might if his cancer is gone. but he didn't want to do it now because he was not sure if the treatment would work.
So would I !
Cannot overstate how fortunate we are to have Rep. Raskin in the halls of congress sticking up for our constitutional rights 💪
If we could just get more from the dems than talk, perhaps we'd still have a balanced scotus.
Mitch McConnell broke his oath to the Constitution by putting party over country. This has been part of the division of the country as espoused by Trump and his Trumplikkkan Republican party. It was at the end of the Nixon administration and his Southern Strategy began division of this country. The Republican party of my youth has been twisted into a party which values guns, their party over the country, which has paved the way for a rise in fascism in the Republican party has continued to espouse views leading the the Disunited States of America, Mr. Trump has built on this to the point where he tried to overthrow our Constitution. If you love democracy, VOTE BLUE.
He's not standing up for 2a, he's standing against it.

I was driving my car and saw Jamie Raskin on the street in Washington DC yesterday (3/23/24). I waved to him and he returned my wave smiling! I was so delighted to see this wonderful man in person!!
Why was Raskin in your car? (Sorry. My ugly copy-editor side made me do it.) Actually, I really appreciate your note. I have developed a fierce respect for him and it is not surprising but reassuring to know that he is as nice a guy as he seems.

If the Constitution is so clear about the restriction against insurrection, why wouldn’t SCOTUS be willing to make a ruling in support of gun regulation for the safety of the population?
Ask the NRA.
Because the government is prohibited from infringing the right. The 2A says the right shall not be infringed.
You need to give classes to the Supreme Court that Trump has nominated to do his bid. Thank you Mr. Jamie Raskin for educating us. 💙
Yes thank you James Raskin 💙👍

They are not.
@@DeeDeeraethey know damn well they are not being " originalists"
Jamie Raskin is one of my favorite Americans! Thank you Brian ❤️🤍💙
I don't favorites they are not entertainers, they are there to follow the laws and rules of the citizens who elected them and not spend all your tax more or get rich while there. They are only there to do the people business period and not to write a bill against the constitution that the Supreme Court has to throw out later, you would be amazed at the bill they pass that is totally unconstitutional.
If you can read all the information is on internet free to read and remember it your rights set up to
Protect you from people that may get into the government and take it over.
Raskin, is just one of many and no sorry you are not getting good information I know he believes what he said, and he could have taught to him, but that doesn't make it true. Don't worry, there are as many as Raskin on the other side.

Jamie rocks! 🎉 So educated. Lucky to have him in Congress! Good health to you Mr Raskin!
Jamie Raskin is the hardest working, highly intelligent passionate politician ever to grace the corridors of Congress.
Why has he never been touted as a presidential candidate? He would be terrific - and would wipe the floor with Trump.
@@gillianbrown8502he has said he has much work to do in the House and I for one am so glad he is there. He may, I hope, in the future change his mind and run for President. I hope so. But it won’t be this election.
@@gillianbrown8502 If Jamie Raskin was running for President i would vote for him, he would be formidable.
@@Mr.HewJorgan I agree. Why isn’t he running. Biden was only going to be a one term President, who did very well to get a handle on COVID, move the country forward and mend fences with allies. Then after some decent results in the mid terms, he makes it clear he will run again and no one has the courage to push back. The Democrats have talent but are sleepwalking to defeat. Biden’s handling of the Gaza massacres has lost thousands of votes, even while people know Trump will be worse. The US and the world needs a fit, articulate and wise President who is not in his eighties and increasingly frail. Time for Biden and the Democrats to put country above party, because a Trump presidency will be horrific.

For more than 25 years, Raskin taught courses in constitutional law, legislative process, and the First Amendment at American University Washington College of Law.
Turns out The Constitution adheres to common sense. Thank you, Representative Raskin, for your tireless service to our country.
Raskin’s brilliant passion for our Constitution is breathtaking. We are so lucky we have him in Congress and in our world.
I have so much admiration for Jamie Raskin!
Have you heard a Republican sound this rational and intelligent in the last 10 years?
More like 20
No. Liz Cheney & Adam Kinzinger are about as rational as any recent Republican politician I've heard, but even they can't match Raskin, & they are obviously too rational & patriotic to be accepted by the modern GOP.
No.
Or ever ? 😂
This is the part that confuses me. Nobody will argue with Raskin and do it in an informed way. They don't have different opinions. They shoot from the hip with uneducated, intentional misleading, childish, and anti-american noise.
Jamie Raskin 2028 ✊🏼🇺🇸
✋🏼No, no, we INSIST.
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT???😊😊
Again, THANK YOU! For fighting to defend us from these treasonous traitors we were warned about from within by our forefathers! From a very heart broken 72 year old American who has been watching our GREAT NATIONS Constitution and our Democracy slowly being destroyed 😢💔by this Republican Party over the years and is now coming to fruition. I never thought I would ever see this nightmare in my life time!
After hearing about the Democracy Summer programme I feel heartened that young people in America have this gateway to plan for a better future for their country. A supportive uk friend. ✌️✌️🖐😁
Jamie Raskin is a national treasure.. an actual living breathing exemplary true patriot. Thank you Representative Raskin for your tireless service to this country, you are cherished
Congressman Raskin is one of our National Treasures! We must protect him at all costs! Thank you sir for all of your wisdom and hard work!
Bravo AND thank you Congressman Jamie Raskin! For those of you that haven't attended college, this IS the best lecture/lesson on the Second Amend of THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA CONSTITUTION. 🇺🇲👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
He doesn't know what he is talking about.
Another great class. Thank you, Representative Raskin, for the presentation, and thank you, Brian Cohen for providing the platform for this to happen.
Jamie Raskin and Katie Porter are like a dynamic duo of intellect and wit! Listening to them is like a breath of fresh air in a room filled with hot air. Vote blue for more of their brilliant insights and no-nonsense approach to politics!
When I was a kid growing up in a conservative family I heard this kind of thing all the time; that the second amendment was to allow the people to fight government overreach by force. Now I realize how stupid this is. The WHOLE POINT of democracy is to give us a non-shooty way to change a government we don't like.
and that was when arms were equal. A comedian does a bit about drones va the biggest personal domestic Arden’s isn’t much competition and over in a push of a button. Sad 2nd amendment folks still won’t discuss reasonable gun safety.
Yes. You have paid attention in Jamie Raskins class. One that intelligently reads the constitution and does not attempt to subvert it for an agenda that simply fits what he wants, but what is prescribed by the founders. Smart people, all.
Non-shooty 😂. Word of the day.
Until democracy is no longer there, then what do you do?
Do you even know what the 2nd is for? Not if you believe Raskin.
Congressman Raskin-- as always, you are brilliant & understandable in explaining the interpretation of the constitution. So proud that you are representing us in Maryland. Thank you, Sir! And thank you so much for your brilliant speech at the Feb. 24th 2nd anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine in DC which I attended. An inspiring & historical speech-- thank you again, Sir!
This series of "classes" with Jamie Raskin should be required in all public high schools - instead of the "film strips" I had to watch.
Jamie Raskin is a national treasure!!👍👍😇
Let Class begin! Rep Raskin is awesome
What a honor to have him.❤
Thank you for insisting on keeping integrity in our Congress! This country would be in a much better place if there were more people like you in government. Thank you for all of your work and intelligence.
Until the Electoral College is terminated and gerrymandering is outlawed, repubs will win more elections, statewide and nationwide.😢
Yes, and more judges who enforce the Constitution
I wish we have more Congressman Jamie Raskin in the government. Thank you Brian for this class, Congressman Raskin is our national treasure.
We have a great congress right now. The problem is we are outnumbered by magaites. Vote blue!
@@user-tz4in5ox3rBut not really outnumbered. They have a 2 seat majority in the House. For some reason they think this gives them full control of the entire government.
I think this is what happens when you elect businessmen, sport coaches and the like. These kinds of people are used to saying do this and someone says yes sir. That's not how democracy works and they seem to be incapable of understanding that.
Voting GOPs / Maga out over the next 20 years
Why are elected officials that still support the insurrection permitted to remain in public office?
This is the vital dialogue that our mass corporate media avoid with terror and loathing-- it introduces reasoned, civil public discussion on legitimate public concerns.
Well done, Rep.Jamie Raskin and BTC.
This man articulated the proper interpretation of the constitution in such a cut and dry way that it would be impossible to argue against! Thank goodness for real Americans who actually love this country.
Agree!!! I now understand so much more…but Jamie Raskin understands explicitly!!
Kudos to Jamie Raskin. We are blessed to have good men and Constitutional scholars like him in the US Congress.
Best Line, Congressman: “I want you to READ the 2nd Amendment!”
I have and he's incorrect on most of what he said.
Brilliant, and succinct. We are fortunate to have such a lauded professor in our government. Thank you for this class online and accessible. Personally I was focused from start to finish with Jamie Raskin’s measured arguments he so clearly set forth.
Mr. Raskin please 🙏 never retire our country needs you. Specially given advice to our youth. Much respect.
Does anyone else feel grateful for a Harvard law school course at a RUclips Channel price?! An entire semester of 50 minute government classes in college did not give me this level of insight.
Thank you, both, for your gracious sharing of knowledge at this critical juncture of our country!
I COMPLETELY AGREE . And I am grateful for this lecture teaching of our rights and responsibilities , confirmed on us by our constitution .
I am grateful for Jamie Raskin's wisdom, leadership and extraordinary service in congress.
Thank you so much for these constitution classes.I just hope the people who need it most will listen.
