The school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, this week was the “most heinous, horrific act,” but must not be used to coalesce power to a central federal authority, Rep. Michael Cloud said on Newsmax Saturday.

“Throughout history, we’ve seen tragedies like this used to coalesce power to a central federal authority. I am always going to be cautious.”
