[Podcast Episode] The Insurrection Act: The 218-Year-Old Law That Could Undermine American Democracy
Uncensored Objection- Hard Hitting Commentary on Breaking Political News - A podcast by No spin. No mercy. Just the truth—from a lawyer who knows the game.
Most Americans have never heard of the Insurrection Act—but they should. This little-known, centuries-old law gives any U.S. president sweeping power to deploy military troops on American soil with almost no checks or oversight. In this episode, we break down what the Insurrection Act is, how it’s been used throughout history—from the Civil War to the Civil Rights Movement—and why it's especially dangerous in today’s political climate. We also explore what reform could look like—and why protecting democracy starts with understanding the laws that could undermine it.Mitch Jackson, Esq. | linksRead the full article here.
