60. Dan Abbott: What is the Militia’s Role in America?
Feds for Freedom stands for freedom of speech and is dedicated to providing every individual, both citizens and government employees, a platform to express their views. The views expressed do not necessarily represent the views of Feds for Freedom. This week on The Feds, we speak with Dan Abbott about the historical role militias played in the United States, their Constitutional protections, and how they are currently being viewed by the US Government. It is a controversial issue, but topically relevant given recent legislative action.
It is worthy of open discussion, and we hope you find this interview valuable.
Dan Abbott is a Virginia National Guardsman and Commander of the Campbell County Militia. After a targeted article was written about Dan and his wife in Military.com, which labeled him as an extremist, the National Guard opened an investigation on Dan, although he has been noted as an exemplary National Guardsman. We discuss the recent DOD Directive 5240.01 as well as the introduced Congressional bill, Preventing Private Paramilitary Act of 2024.
