A Woman Lost Two Partners to Guns—Then the N.R.A. Came to Collect [More]
So, is the woman-championing New Yorker suddenly questioning a woman’s right/competency to choose life partners? And are a man’s dying wishes not to be honored?

Report: Rep. Chuck Edwards Gave Female Staffers Pink and Blue Handguns [More]
In the absence of evidence that this was part of a sexual harassment effort and/or was paid for by taxpayers, how is this not just a targeted political tactic?
It would help if we knew who his accusers were, but Axios won’t tell us and we’re just supposed to accept its spin.

A Congressman’s Gun Store Is Linked to a Federal Trafficking Case. He’s Trying to Defund the ATF. [More]
Wait– so someone apparently straw purchased “more than 40 firearms from gun stores in the Athens area between September 2020 and July 2021 … at least 20 of those firearms have since been recovered by law enforcement, several in connection with violent crimes,” and “Among the firearms recovered was ONE [emphasis added] purchased at Clyde Armory, the Georgia gun store owned by Representative Andrew Clyde” and someone is trying to make the case that “rais[es] broader questions about conflicts of interest, regulatory oversight, and the intersection of private business and public office”…?
Really?
That raises broader questions with me about the motivations and political leanings of the author and his publisher:

The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) board of directors voted to affirm the organization’s definition of a journalist to make clear that terrorists are also journalists worthy of protection. [More]

Houston mother mourns another son lost to gun violence [Watch]
Calling it that is ne way of not addressing the real problem.
And while we’re at it, let’s call the hand-wringing “real reporters” what they really are.

Richmond Moms Demand Action and Virginians for Change held their “Wear Orange” event, where local leaders and survivors shared what people can do to be part of the solution. [More]
Really?
And those weren’t worth sharing with your readers, “real reporter” Taylor Bryan?
The Guardian says that further censorship of U.S. social media companies is needed to control dissent in Europe [More]
Funny– going to The Guardian story from there and this pops up:

If I’m getting these it means I’m not paying my fair share.

What’s in the Trump administration’s ‘tsunami’ of gun deregulation [More]
Oh, no! Infringing on infringements! Head for higher ground!

Gannett’s USA TODAY blasts guns, Second Amendment rights, sanity – New USA TODAY columnist brings new anti-gun message. [More]
Nothin’ new about that…
Disney-owned ABC is now petitioning the Federal Communications Commission to officially declare the screeching harpies on The View as “bona fide news,” giving the daytime talk show a free pass to platform Democrat politicians while blackballing Republicans and dodging equal time rules that apply to every other broadcaster. [More]
That the “conservative” half of America still does business with them shows what a force denial can be.
