We’re the Only Ones Deplaned Enough
Loaded ammunition magazine found on Frontier flight at DIA belonged to a ‘law enforcement officer,’ airline says [More]
In case you needed more proof to substantiate that they’re more qualified to keep and bear arms than you or me…
Who was he? Was he an air marshal? How did he get thought TSA? It seems none of the officials want to give more details– no doubt because us non-LEOs just wouldn’t understand.

None Dare Call It Treason
One participant explicitly frames it as “a global anti-authoritarian movement,” connecting U.S. officials with “colleagues from around the world who have dealt with this directly.” [More]
Add to that foreign agents for the Chicoms…
What’s funny is AI tells me she was a 2026 “gun sense candidate” but I can’t find anything else to substantiate it, so we’re either dealing with another “hallucination” or a multifaceted cleanup effort.

Memorial Drive shooting suspect went to prison over previous shootout with police, sources confirm [More]
Don’t worry. Those who decided he could be trusted outside of custodial care won’t suffer any personal repercussions.
Funny, how this report doesn’t mention the armed citizen who intervened. (Pro tip to the ones that do: “Marine” should be capitalized.)
I just don’t have time to watch this DA press conference, but am told:
The head of the Cambridge Police as well as the Colonel of the MSP did not acknowledge the role of the “civilian” in this, only the bravery of the responding officers, who mostly arrived after the shooting was done.

Charlie’s Idea of Great R&R
“Assistant US attorney Charles Strauss Jr,” Peterson said. “He was actually on site for the raid. He actually orchestrated and coordinated the raid. It wasn’t done with law enforcement. It was done through the prosecution. So, the prosecution actually was the ones who did the raid, orchestrated it, and it was because of the bipartisan Safer Communities Act…the US assistant US attorney, actually told my attorney that Peterson will never traffic firearms again. That was one of his statements.” [More]

Lipstick on a Pig
Tomorrow the House will bring my NICS reporting bill for a vote! My bill aims to reduce the number of false denials created by the gun background check system. NICS disproportionately cheats law abiding minorities out of their right to keep & bear arms. [More]
The whole idea of a prior restraint on the right of the people to keep and bear arms would have killed the Constitution in its crib. That said, I understand the theory of incrementalism, how it’s been used by Democrats with great success to “normalize” infringements, and how dancing around the edges can be a more effective tactic.
But that said, if Massie really wants to throw it in their faces and expose NICS as being less about background checks and more about identifying who owns what, he should introduce the Blind Identification Database System (BIDS) Act.
A Decree from On High
And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed… And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
See, that’s why tyrants used to do it.
The Founders’ Republic added representation.
So I just got an order from the Census Bureau with the unequivocal mandate:
YOUR RESPONSE IS REQUIRED BY LAW
It does quite a bit more than count us, and for purposes those who conceived it would never have approved.
That said, I see the same executive action that will change the 4473 is across the board. I wonder if the No Kings crowd will decide to mass defy compliance.
Aside from the general intrusiveness and tedium of completing the rest of the online form, two questions make me wonder about a Fifth Amendment conflict:
Seeing how a Democrat-ruled VA tried to disarm veterans who needed help managing their finances, I’m wondering if this information on file about “difficulties” from “mental and emotional conditions “could be abused by a later administration to try and disqualify a citizen from gun ownership. Could completing this section be considered self-incrimination?
The Fix is In

I’ve been wondering when they were finally going to get around to it.
Let the outrage and lawsuits begin!
And don’t let the revised form distract from the real issue at hand.
