Notes from the Resistance

…Republicans are looking to Parliamentarian of the Senate Elizabeth MacDonough to make her determination on if such measures will survive the “Byrd bath” or become “Byrd droppings.” [More]
Politicians sure do come up with all kinds of convoluted complications over something as simple as “shall not be infringed.”
RELATED UPDATE
I ended the piece with GOA’s latest announcement that “the Senate’s version of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” now includes full repeal of the $200 NFA tax on: Suppressors Short-barreled rifles (SBRs) Short-barreled shotguns (SBSs) “Any Other Weapons” (AOWs).”
Here’s the rev. of the bill. Start on pg. 261.
The Department of Justice has filed a brief with the Seventh Circuit in support of our win against the Illinois “assault weapon” and standard capacity magazine bans in our Harrel v. Raoul lawsuit. [More]
I got the brief over the weekend and am working a write-up.
Also on the same case, 35 AG’s have signed onto supporting the lawsuit.

Twenty-five year old Deja Foxx is vying for more than a seat in Congress. She’s looking to be part of a root-and-branch overhaul of the Democratic Party. [More]
If she’s the next “It Girl” for fresh new ideas, how come she’s pushing the same old ones on guns?
“We see gun violence as an intersectional issue,” Foxx said. “We want to see common-sense regulation that will keep us safe in school.” She says that means banning military-grade weaponry and not arming teachers. “The Second Amendment was written in a time when those guns weren’t even conceived,” Foxx said.
And her economic platform is even older school.

“It is deeply troubling that the State of Hawaiʻi has not been transitioned into a military government as mandated by international law. This failure of transition places current police officers on duty that they may be held accountable for unlawfully enforcing American laws. [More]
Lawsuit: Hawaii AG Accuses Trump of ‘Distributing Machine Guns’
It only looks like Paradise.
And by “Trump,” she means the millions 0f Americans who support his agenda.

Don’t wait for Everytown or the Democrats to disavow her, because citizen disarmament never was about “commonsense gun safety.”
Typical: She deleted her X account. On Facebook, she makes excuses, evades accountability for inciting violence, and won’t let us comment. What a coward. She knew exactly what she was posting (we’ll see if she deletes that from her BlueSky account)

She was using her title so she wasn’t posting as a private individual. Looks like Julie doesn’t believe in the First Amendment any more than she does the Second.

And it looks like her deputy’s bomb threat was just a continuation of her policies.
How is it that anyone is really stupid enough to believe it’s about “commonsense gun safety“?

Being one of the worst states in the union for eviscerating the Second Amendment, there’s much to be said on having the ear of a governor with veto power. [More]
True, hardly a perfect one. Still, the differences between the two are many, and this is New Jersey, after all.

Mullin stated, “California is number one in murders, and they don’t even report all the sectors for their state. There’s — we are trying to figure out the numbers of sectors that don’t report any crime at all to the state, but yet, they’re still number one.” [More]
So, when the “study” apparatchiks tell us “Four states (California, Maryland, New York, and Rhode Island) had decreased pediatric firearm mortality after McDonald v Chicago, all of which were in the strict firearms law group,” they’re lying…?

Ignorance and arrogance (a dangerous combination) are to be expected from this collection of cackling hens, but things get a lot more dangerous when that level of stupidity is expressed by the legislators who will be ramming this bill into law. [More]
Don’t look for Republicans under Christine Drazan to do anything meaningful to repel the assault.

Nothing like emboldening gun-grabbers and eroding respect for law…
And speaking of Firearms News articles, the June 2025 issue (pictured above) with three of my articles (“Supreme Court Avoids New York Second Amendment Infringements” (p. 10), “A Tale of Two Revolutions” (p.12), and “ATF and DOJ Continue Abuses While Being Bipolar on Guns” (p. 14), is now on display at diverse and inclusive newsstands throughout the Republic. (Or you could save money over single issue prices and subscribe.)
Given the erosion of public safety and the rise of systemic distrust, Britain would benefit from revisiting the question of civilian armament and cherry-picking the best of the US and Swiss models. This could include background checks, psychological evaluation, and a demonstrated understanding of firearms safety and the law. As with the Swiss model, gun owners could be required to undertake regular training and recertification. [More]

This is one that we have been following very closely because if this gets signed by the governor not only will it affect the people of California but California is a lot like a test kitchen for gun control if it sticks in California it tends to spread to other blue states across this country… [Watch]
Don’t worry. “Soon…”
And if it does go “our ” way, Democrats will ignore that with no repercussions.
