Doubt that this will go anywhere (it's in the interest of the Uniparty to keep FEDGOV militarized), but I'm glad to see this anyway.

If the non LEO Federal agencies were totally disarmed, they would far less prone to abusing citizen rights.

Yes, a good move - one of hundreds, no, thousands that need to be made.

But they all will have to wait until the Repubs have all 3 houses. Nothing’s going anywhere until then.

And if we get all 3 - watch. The Repubs will forget why they were given power and blow it and do nothing.......sorry for being so cynical......

Just like the IRS. Gubbamint will never abolish the IRS even when offered many taxing alternatives that would dramatically reduce the size of the IRS...why?

It is governments strong arm against the American people. It is up to the American people to begin flooding the halls of these agencies and demanding the restoration of liberty and demanding abolition of the EPA, IRS, DHS, TSA and the like.

It’s about time, but as others have commented, it will probably not go anywhere.

While I’m NOT holding my breath, we may be seeing an outbreak of TESTICLE GROWTH in DC.

And to answer the question will obozo sign it, the HOUSE STILL HOLDS THE PURSE STRINGS. We’re FINALLY hearing talk about SHUTTING OFF THE FRAUDS (Federal Reserve Accounting Unit Denominators erroneously called “dollars”) to agencies — INCLUDING DOJ — that refuse to follow the laws!!!

And it’s ABOUT DAMN TIME!!!!!

Good move. About time.
I don't mind Federal agents having a sidearm for self defense like everyone else.
I want to see an end to heavily armed thugs with badges committing breaking and entering and violent home invasions under the color of law. That should not happen in America.
Only when a suspect has proven to be too dangerous to apprehend in any other way, then an agency may call on FBI to perform the arrest with a properly trained SWAT team.

Of course it won’t go anywhere. Ever since the Patriot Act EVERYTHING has been militarized in the U.S. The local police think they need SWAT for a traffic ticket.

Quite frankly, I think military service should disqualify you from the police force. We have seen a HUGE influx of our returning Vets becoming cops. It is a completely different job. It would be like me being a Sports Agent instead of a Prosecutor and vice versa. We’ve both had similar training but are completely wrong for the others job.

“Law and order” my a**.

"This is in part a product of the 2002 Homeland Security Act, which gave most Offices of Inspector General arrest and firearm authority."

Wait... are they saying the IRS IG DOES have authority to make arrests?
Like in the email scandal?

One of the roots of such wasteful, foolish, thuggish, and tyrannous government is the ease with which it can create almost unlimited amounts of money out of thin air. Near-infinite money buys near-infinite government, and a bureaucracy that is generously funded can entertain an open-ended dream about how to expand its realm.

Every day more people are coming to the judgment that a carefully organized effort to repair the constitution via the States’ power to propose and ratify amendments has less risk to our liberty and prosperity than the present trajectory of the federal government and especially the federal bureaucracy.

The first order of business of an Article V Convention must be to limit government’s ability to spend and create near-infinite amounts of money.
