I Got Them Stupid Party Blues

In a bold but ultimately unsuccessful effort, State Rep. Brian Harrison (R–Midlothian) forced a vote Wednesday on a resolution to remove Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows, accusing him of betraying Republican voters and handing power to Democrats… The final vote was 141-2, with five members present but not voting, and two absent.

Republicans, they thirst for death.

Could’a Been Full Contenders

The concept emerged for Mr. Roscher, 35, as he watched Russia invade Ukraine in 2022. Ukrainian civilians were flooding the streets with little ability to defend themselves. [More]

Which provided the biggest case for the Second Amendment until the government had second thoughts.

As much as these folks try to put distance between themselves and the Militia, what they’re doing is close except for our government abdicating its duty to officially organize, arm, and discipline, and in many cases outlawing private training.

The one thing I see missing from this writeup on the “prepared citizen movement” is political education and advocacy to forestall a lot of what they’re training for from growing into threats there is no other way of stopping. They’re not doing themselves or the rest of the Republic any favors if they’re training members who then turn around and vote for gun-grabbing Democrats.

Cooking the Books

The Colorado state government is playing a dangerous game with your Second Amendment rights—and they’re hoping you won’t notice. Thanks to our recent Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) request, we’ve uncovered troubling evidence about how they pushed Senate Bill 3 (the Semi-Auto Gun Ban/Buy Back Your Rights bill) through the legislature. What we found should alarm every responsible gun owner in this state. [More]

But such sneaky dishonesty delights those who want their guns.

Think about that.

UPDATE

And as we’ve come to expect, the ones targeted consistently and overwhelmingly vote for their oppressors.

Divide and Conquer

New York proposal would ban police from making traffic stops for minor violations to pursue ‘racial equity’ [More]

Proposed by racist Democrats who hate America, but ultimately, it’s fine by me. I never wanted to have to put tags on my car anyway, and anything that will lessen the chances of me being forced to stop and subject to search is a plus in my book.

Just don’t sue me if I rear-end someone who didn’t have brake lights.

It’s the Guns?

Carlos Alberto Diaz-Chavez, 21, a citizen of Honduras without legal status in the United States, has been charged by criminal complaint with being an Alien in possession of a firearm, possession of a machinegun, possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime… [More]

And how did he get them…?

Tell me with a straight face this doesn’t prove we need more gun laws!

We’re the Only Ones Defamed Enough

Katie Blackwell is assistant chief of operations for the Minneapolis Police Department. She briefly appeared in the film The Fall of Minneapolis (produced by Liz Collin). Based on her appearance in the film and in the related book by Liz, Blackwell brought an ill-advised defamation lawsuit against Liz and Alpha News (I’m a member of the board). [More]

Forgetting anyone…?

Gun rights leaders and legal scholars could be identified and nominated to analyze and prioritize bills, lawsuits, regulations, opportunities, and threats, to advise on judicial and other federal nominees, and to help educate the public. The Office would provide a way for the public to express their concerns and to offer ideas and suggestions, meaning gun owners would have a conduit.

The Long and Short of It

The SHORT Act would remove short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and other firearms from the draconian NFA. Sign the petition now to support the SHORT Act and help GOA get this legislation over the finish line! [More]

The finish line is the president’s desk.

I’m sure some will balk with the requirement to provide a phone number. If the goal is to get ‘er done, it would help if we knew which reps and senators we needed to work on who wouldn’t be a complete waste of time, and who could be publicly pressured via their X.com accounts.

Maybe let ’em know the ban was the excuse the government used to justify executing Vicki and Sammy Weaver.
