For the Record

I’m still trying to figure out what’s constitutional about any of what they do.

It’s a Big Club and Look Who’s In It

Top Goldman Sachs lawyer Kathy Ruemmler will leave the investment bank at the end of June. Her announcement follows the release of documents detailing her often chummy conversations with notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. [More]

She’s the same one who would not allow House Oversight to interview the National Security Council apparatchik who got Phoenix SAC and Gunwalker honcho Bill Newell to send him information.

Thanks for Nothing?

Q: Will the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act get a vote?

I am an original cosponsor of the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act. Once it passes the Senate Judiciary Committee, it will go to the full Senate. I look forward to voting for this legislation so Idahoans with concealed carry permits can exercise their rights in states with similar laws.

Per 1Gat:

As you can see the language/ mood of the hoped for national concealed carry reciprocity has been changed to “can exercise their rights in states with similar laws.” As you are aware, CCW holders can already “exercise their rights in states with similar laws” and more. My ID ccw (which is unconstitutional and not required) is good in 40 states, not just the 28 with “similar laws.” This is a TOTAL slight of hand betrayal by alleged pro 2A legislators and needs exposure.

We’re the Only Ones Flashy Enough

A U.S. Border Patrol agent was briefly arrested last week after attempting to bring a flash-bang grenade through security at McAllen-Miller International Airport in Texas, prompting a police response and raising questions about airport security enforcement and prosecutorial decisions. [More]

Charges were dismissed against him but not against a “civilian’ who forgot his handgun in his carry-on.

I’m not buying the “probable cause” excuse. This looks more to me like another case of “professional courtesy.”

Suffer the Children

Ally Kotetsu, who describes himself as “a non-binary transgender woman who is transrace Japanese,” is campaigning both online and in public through an effort he calls Beyond the Plus, which advocates for the rights of “beings who are romantically or sexually attracted to beings who are below the age of 18.” [More]

Love is love?

The original rebellion continues.

Disparaging Armed Citizens Undermines Trump Administration’s Credibility

Maybe it’s time to stop dousing the fire in gun owner bellies, especially with top administration officials making inane comments that spit in the faces of Second Amendment activists — the very people Republicans need to win. [More]

In what reality is making core constituents feel like they’re being used smart politics?

Garbage Out

Hughes struck that entire response, noting that Solis had admitted he failed to disclose his use of AI in the filing. Hughes also blasted Solis for using “hallucinated and false citations,” online court records show. [More]

Who ever heard of such a thing?

Y’know, you do that in writing and academia, and it’s considered plagiarism. Any bar complaints filed?

L-a-a-ambert!

This guy got arrested at a Christmas parade in Florida for wearing a body armor vest concealed under his shirt. The problem is, that wasn’t illegal. I saw this in the news, with cops taking a victory lap and Karens rejoicing about it, so I put in a request for the footage, and just got it. And it’s worse than I even thought it would be. Lawful conduct does not become illegal just because police officers – or Karens – are afraid of something. My rights don’t end where your fear of some perfectly legal object begins. [Watch]

Those “citizens” grateful to the “Only Ones” remind me of nothing so much as the sheep bleating for Lambert to save her.

Why would communists be afraid of them?

None Dare Call It Treason

Only one House Dem voted in favor of voter ID, proof of citizenship in US elections [More]

Gee, it’s almost like they have an ulterior motive

Funny, how the number 213 keeps coming up with Democrats.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”!
