A Diversionary Tactic

Texas Official Lays Blame for Brutal Rape and Murder of 12-Year-Old Jocelyn Nungaray on Trump [More]

At times you gotta wonder if they know they’re maliciously gaslighting or if they really are insane.

Gotta do something to distract from her proven political corruption.

But wait! There’s more!

Lina Hidalgo’s top three staffers were indicted in April 2022 after prosecutors expanded the investigation into an $11 million ‘vaccine outreach contract’ awarded to one of the judge’s political cronies. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton last month joined the investigation into Lina Hidalgo’s $11 million no-bid contract.

Well… there’s a surprise:

Q&A

Mother demands answers after son is among victims in series of shootings in 24 hours in Lancaster [More]

I have questions, too, starting with “Mom, where was your husband in that clip?”

Or are we not allowed to extrapolate from generalities? Because those who say we need more “gun control” sure do.

Is the answer really more police, or is that just a reaction to an effect?

An Idea Whose Time Hasn’t Come

Following Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy’s push for more gun control under the guise of declaring “gun violence” a “public health crisis,” the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms announced its support for the proposed Protecting the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Act, sponsored by U.S. Senator Mike Braun (R-IN).

Only one problem:

Prognosis 0% chance of being enacted

Revisit this after November and see if the numbers have changed.

The Wrong Way

The Supreme Court struck the ban down, making it clear that if you wanted to ban bumpstocks you had to do it the right way, which is the way the Constitution outlines, which is actually passing a bill through Congress and having it signed into law by the president. [Watch]

Wrong:

“Left unsaid is where Congress derives such authority in the first place, as the power to regulate and ban arms is nowhere delegated to it in the Constitution. The only clear mandate is ‘the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.’ By any branch of government.”

Change my mind. Show the section and clause.

I expect our would-be leaders to know this stuff.

Without a Trace

“McWhirter noted, “If there was ever a political situation in which PLCAA was rolled back, they would stop making AR-15s tomorrow because it would just be legally impossible. And, and all, every other gun would be really problematic.” [More]

It’s always been about taking your guns.

And The Trace has always been about its damaged propagandists, who no doubt are delusional enough to believe themselves champions of “commonsense gun safety. “

Bag of Tricks

Elisabeth Epps, Tim Hernández unseated as Democratic legislative primary results are a mixed bag for progressives [More]

Oh, yeah, Sean “Ban weapons of war that have no place on Colorado streets” Camacho and Cecilia “Regulate or ban the sale of assault weapons in Colorado” Espinoza are going to be GREAT improvements. Not.

I’m not getting how anyone could consider the election of more effective enemies a “win. “

Out of the Frying Pan…

George Latimer defeats House ‘squad’ member Jamaal Bowman in historic New York Democratic primary [More]

I see some “gunfluencers” treating this as a good thing. It’s not.

George is every bit the enemy, and with the perception that he’s “moderate,” he’ll be more effective at passing citizen disarmament mandates than the radical moron he’s sidelining.

The media you do see this in is confined to an echo chamber.
