Gemini Rising

Google Gemini invented fake reviews smearing my book about Big Tech’s political biases – Google Gemini invented fake reviews meant to discredit my book about political bias in Big Tech [More]

That goes beyond GIGO and into hallucination and libel territory.

Then again, I was checking to see how the work was propagating and ran across “Meet Preston,” and he doesn’t seem to have me embezzling checks from anybody…

Zero Tolerance is No Virtue

The bill, introduced on Tuesday, will “provide firearm licensees an opportunity to correct statutory and regulatory violations, and for other purposes” and says the “Attorney General may not bring an enforcement action to revoke, or deny a renewal of, a license for a violation of any provision of this chapter or any implementing regulation thereof on the basis of a self-reported violation.” [More]

Good. I was getting tired of posting photos of inspectors with apparent slack stains and then having to deal with threats from U.S. Marshals.

Although I wouldn’t expect Senate Dems to let the bill go anywhere, it’s not on her GovTrack page yet, so I can’t give you a prognosis percent, but my bet is low single-digit.

Whistleblower Answers Questions About ATF/DOJ Fast and Furious Malfeasance

Mike and I were not only ready to go with it (albeit unwilling to burn a source and post under a requested embargo), but after the mainstream press has been on it for days now, there was only one place hosting the letter (other stories only talked about it) from the attorney for the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association to Sen. Chuck Grassley and Rep. Darrell Issa detailing not just the setup for the grenade operation, but also, and importantly, about the retaliation his ATF agent-client was subjected to by DOJ management for testifying at a House Oversight Committee hearing. [More]

A name from earlier investigations of years past once more brings ATF’s criminal “gunwalker” plot to the front burner with a new book and an exclusive interview.

An Idea Whose Time Has Come

A bill introduced in the Georgia House this week could expand the presence of guns on private property. The bill would make property owners legally liable if a gun owner gets hurt on property where they aren’t allowed to carry a gun. [More]

That could make my cards obsolete:

So… does it have any chance of passing or is this pre-election posturing?

The Let’s F*** FFLs Who Obey the Law Act of 2024

Say goodbye to your favorite FFL because your state legislature is about to run them all out of business. Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses HB 2118, which is now set to be put on the floor in the Senate tonight, and is expected to pass. [Watch]

Fortunately, the black market won’t have to comply with any of this targeted harassment.

We’re the Only Ones Suddenly Finding Our Courage Enough

The Uvalde police who stood in the hall for over an hour as over 40 children and teachers were shot (21 died) were quick to arrest parents of the victims like Brett Cross for making public outbursts at County Commissioners they accuse of a coverup. [More]

Bear has something to say about that.

UPDATE

As does Herschel.

Ce n’est pas Charlie

Police find scores of guns at French star Delon’s home [More]

It’s sounds like he’s far enough gone to where there’s no point in hauling him in, and whichever squabbling heir thought it would work to their advantage to rat him out is going to see the estate diminished in fines.

I guess he wasn’t about to be Charlie, either.

None Dare Call It Treason

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

Revealing Truth Forbidden Under Punishment of Law

Judge Overseeing Case to Release Covenant Killer Manifesto Warns of Contempt If Parties ‘Usurp’ Sealed Materials [More]

What filthy politics must be in play for this to even be an issue on as story of such public importance that’s being exploited to ratchet down on our rights?

If I had the information, I’d defy this robed tyrant in an instant and protect my sources to the end.

Who Will Judge the Judge?

This puts journalists in an interesting position. If I reach out to the neighbor for her side of the story, a judge can jail Jeremy. In essence, a judge in Florida is restricting the right of the press to get to the heart of a story through threats of removing the liberty of the subject of the story… One of the worst things the judge has done to Jeremy and his girlfriend is to restrict Jeremy’s movements on his own property without hearing the facts of the case…Worse, his Second Amendment rights have been removed with no evidentiary hearing to decide if he is actually a threat. Meanwhile, he says he’s been threatened by the neighbor and her associates with all manner of bodily harm. He is also prohibited from hiring security due to the injunction, as he cannot be around anyone with guns. [More]

That would be Judge Craig C. DeThomasis, a DeSantis appointee.

At least we know where to turn up the heat.

It’s a Big Club and You Can’t Have It

It’s not his money and there’s always plenty more.

Democrats don’t even want you to have a stick.
