We’re the Only Ones Rummaging Enough

The FBI violated the Fourth Amendment when its agents rifled through the contents of more than 700 safe-deposit boxes in the aftermath of a March 2021 raid, a panel of federal appeals court judges ruled unanimously on Tuesday. [More]

And the reason every damn one of those oath-breaking, jackbooted fascists isn’t behind bars…?

ATF/FBI ‘Lovers Spat’ Catch-22 on NFA Appeals Resolved

It should be a straightforward enough process and you’d think the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Department of Justice would be on the same page, instead of pointing fingers, abdicating responsibilities, and just plain getting things wrong, especially considering how they increasingly hold Federal Firearms Licensees to “zero tolerance standards” over paperwork glitches. [More]

It took fear of getting spanked by the court, but they finally, grudgingly agreed to an appeals process.

Pot Shots

The Second Amendment Foundation and a District Attorney in Pennsylvania have filed a federal lawsuit against Attorney General Merrick Garland, the heads of the FBI and ATF, and the U.S. Government, challenging the federal prohibition on gun ownership by medical marijuana users. [More]

There’s a Eugene Stoner joke in here somewhere…

Until such time as the smoke clears, I trust no one is making purchases with a credit card…?

Point/Counterpoint

The story isn’t that these are feds. Everyone knows that by now. The story is, as it often is, why? Why would the feds run an op like this? Ask yourself that question. You won’t like the answers. [More]

Vs.

They’re not Feds. I used to think they were too. Like January 6th, our side lives in a bubble and we fault to acknowledge the real ugly right flank of our movement [More]

I suppose if someone had the time to investigate they could join and see where that leads. Or perhaps simpler, surreptitiously follow the truck they load the flags in…

In any case, it’s not the “far right” flank.

First They Came for the…

Faith leaders and religious liberty advocates are up in arms over news the federal government encouraged banks and other financial institutions to search customers’ private accounts using the search term “religious texts.” [More]

So now they’re all upset because it’s their ox getting gored?

Hey, you never know when Merrick and Chris might neeed to ID some extremists.

Funny, they were quiet when they came for MAGA supporters and for gun owners…

Starting to feel like useful idiots yet, “faith community“…?

Probably not, because that would require them not being idiots.

Giving Boat Rockers Their Comeuppance

Tayler Hansen is an exceptional independent journalist who covers violent protests, the open US border, filthy pornographic porn shows open to children, and current events. His brave and honest reporting should have won him numerous awards over the years. Tayler has reported from several violent protests over the years and placed himself in danger to get out the truth. [More]

Well, maybe if he’d knock that sh!+ off and submit to being a “real reporter” we woudln’t have to treat him like the enemy of the state that we’ve deemed him to be.

We’re the Only Ones Finding the Crime Enough

That implies a sprawling COINTELPRO, or post-9/11-style, FBI spying and provocation operation—this time seeking real or imagined right-wing radicals instead of leftists (COINTELPRO) or Islamists (post 9/11). Logically, such an operation would place agents and/or informants in right-wing radical groups nationwide–such as Hawaii’s KHH and the Aloha Freedom Coalition—but, aside from the January 7, 2021 Honolulu Airport arrest of Proud Boys leader Nick Ochs, the FBI has no results to show for it. [More]

Their tactics remind me of something… but what?

I guess Republicans being such a minority they don’t have a chance isn’t enough.

What is it they want us to do?

So what’s the deal on this Lipscomb character?
