Notes from the Resistance
Last week, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn lost his bid to be the chamber’s majority leader. The next day, he announced his intention to seek reelection to the Senate in 2026. We asked readers if they would support him if the Texas GOP primary election were held today. Here is a sampling of the comments we received from our readers after they voted in the survey. [More]
By all accounts he should be finished. If he’s not, it’s on Texas Republican voters.

Become a vigilante to help us catch dangerous drivers, police tell public- Citizen detectives are being urged to film drivers tailgating, using their mobile phones at the wheel and not wearing a seat belt [More]
Be funny if the footage shows the snitch was behind the wheel and he ends up convicting himself…

Except it’s not. In the complete version they end up killing Trump and playing celebratory music:
And remember what we know about those who wish him harm.

Because he spoke before he was inaugurated, giving him the power to act, Trump alerted the Deep State that he represented an existential threat to its survival. The bottom line is that the Deep State cannot afford for Trump to become president on January 20, 2025. [More]
You might want to play this in the background, just to set the mood for how insane it all is.
All that talk from Democrats about the peaceful transition of power and Joe Biden greeting him cordially is more than them just poking him for Jan. 6, it’s for plausible deniability. Add in domestic enemies embedded in the Secret Service, an assasination attempt where they left vulnerabilities anyone could exploit, and leaking his golf schedule for a second attempt, and there is nothing they won’t stop at.
Then follow that up with their manufactured external existential threat.
These are the most dangerous times we’ve ever lived through — so far.
Maybe we’ll get a chance to see just how smart the Founders were with the Second Amendment.

Democrat Dick Durbin Urges Senate Colleagues to Ban Bump Stocks [More]
And Ryan Cleckner calls him a liar.
Durbin’s just making noise. But do keep it up and remind people why they voted against Democrats.

So Poland selects shooting competition judges based on how many of the rules they can break? I can see the “Certain Ethnic” skit now…

According to the non-prosecution agreement, in exchange for Castleberry resigning from his role as Kimble County sheriff, surrendering his license to serve as a peace officer along with all certificates issued to him by the TCLE, the district attorney pro team and county attorney pro team terminated “any further investigation of the incidents involving Sheriff Castleberry and his family.” [More]
So… he basically just has to get a new job…?
And nothing about being ordered to surrender his guns and designated a “prohibited person’…?

The House Minority Leader is known for iron fisted party discipline and intimidation. Where did she learn to do that so effectively? [More]
Money isn’t the only thing these people launder.
But no matter how much they try to appear legitimate, they just can’t shake the old ways of corruption, extortion and coercion.
She just joined a bigger gang.
…Stallone has stayed pretty quiet about his personal politics over the years and admitted to not voting in the 2016 and 2020 elections [and] did not publicly endorse Trump during the 2024 election cycle… [More]
But now that he sees which way the wind is blowing, and instead of cancellation sees opportunity, he’s hopped on the train the rest of us boarded, stoked, and rode into the station…
I wonder if he still wants police to go door-to-door to confiscate all the guns while he headlines Brady fundraisers.
What a phony. He always has been.
“We will not tolerate hate in Ohio,” Ohio Republican Gov. Mike DeWine said in a statement on the social media platform X on Saturday evening. “Neo-Nazis — their faces hidden behind red masks — roamed streets in Columbus today, carrying Nazi flags and spewing vile and racist speech against people of color and Jews. There were reports that they were also espousing white power sentiments.” [More]
So, we don’t know who they really are and what their real motivations are, do we? All we know is it furthers the politically usefule meme that white people are “the greatest threat.”
Everybody knows Hitler was a Democr…uh…National Socialist, right?
Democratic Georgia lawmaker sets goals for 2025 intended to reduce children’s gun injuries [More]
What’s the Road to Hell paved with again?
I guess that serves some purposes better then “Moron tries to punish everyone else for his own cConstituency’s bad behaviors.”
Or “Lickspittle media helps politican mask his own incompetence at finding real solutions in order to convince anyone dumb enough to vote for him that he’s got a viable plan”…

How is it possible to do any part of the job without infringing on someone’s rights?
There’s no such thing as a good overseer. Some are just less cruel with their illegitimate power than others.
DSM über alles!
Funny, how someone with a Bachelor of Arts in English feigns competence to make qualification pronouncements on state and defense…
And funny how the side whose vision was rejected is determioned to impose it anyway.
After confidently predicting Trump was ‘toast,’ Michael Moore lashes out at Americans: ‘Not a good people’ [More]
Attorney Mehek Cooke, a Republican attorney who served as a political and legal surrogate for Trump in 2024, is under consideration to be chosen to fill Vance’s seat… [More]
Knowing DeWine, who he picks is a real concern.
She seems to have the right attitude on guns.
And on illegal immigration…
The idiot prohibitionists piling on, that is, the losers p!$$ed off about election results, offer the same tired, refutable arguments:
“Well regulated” refers to the militia. It has no bearing on weapons kept at home, and the Constitution delegates no authority for any branch of government to overcome “shall not be infringed.”
The “It’s the gun ” argument ignores the tens of millions of us who morally coexist with guns every day. Their only “solution” is to do what they say we’re paranoid for fearing: Ban guns.
And don’t argue “suicide” and then argue the police should be the “Only Ones” armed.
“People violate laws anytime they want. So, for me, if I violate this law, it’s because I want a court to pay attention. There’s nothing more important than counting votes.” [More]
Unfortunately, the court can’t pay proper attention until charges are brought against her.
Did you know that Hawaii currently lacks any state-funded shooting facilities across all counties? This means limited opportunities for safe firearm training, recreational shooting, and practice for our local law enforcement. [More]
No one really believes Marxist citizen disarmamament fanatics when they mouth the words “commonsense gun safety,” do they?
Ted Olson, 9/11, Citizens United, Bush v. Gore & The Importance of A Great Solicitor General [Watch]
That would be the same Ted Olson who argued against the Supreme Court hearing the Emerson case, asked the Supreme Court not to intervene in the Haney case, and argued against “restoring” a gun owner’s rights in the Bean case.
I don’t set out to pick arguments with influencers. It’s just that sometimes I hear things that trigger my inner Fletcher.

I’ve got to take the wife to the ophthalmologist this morning (I don’t want her driving after they dilate her eyes) and then have an article to write for Firearms News, so I probably won’t get to too many news tips today — and I generally don’t post here on weekends.
Please hold off on news tips or understand if I just can’t get to yours. I’ll try to post some stuff later today if I can.
It’s ironic that Jones has essentially been punished for “fake news,” the very thing The Onion exploits for its own profits. [More]
When it’s all said and done, my guess is these gloating (and ultimately humorless) prohibitionists are going to be anything but happy.
