The Chicago police officer who fatally shot his partner Krystal Rivera during a June 2025 foot pursuit waited approximately two minutes before responding to her as she lay dying… Rivera’s family has sued both him and the Chicago Police Department, alleging the shooting came after Rivera broke off a romantic relationship with him.

Shamar Elkins is a convicted felon and was prohibited from possessing a firearm, w/a 5 year mandatory minimum sentence in both state and federal courts. Of course we also have laws prohibiting murder.
The gun-grabbers have been mysteriously silent with new demands from this on their X accounts. They know the only answer they could give to what laws could have prevented this would require them to admit the end plan.
Chicago Public Schools declare May 1 a ‘day of civil action’ for students – Chicago schools may help students attend ‘civil engagement events’ despite May 1 still being a full school day [More]
Others will cite the corruption, incompetence and failures. I just want to point out this pretty much blows the “wait a generation or two” argument out of the water. This is what those generations’ influences will be.
I am willing to risk the giving up of my Rights and Privileges as a Citizen for our Great Military and Country! [More]
I’m not. Especially when Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 has been ignored. That other presidents have also done that is not so much a compelling argument as it is evidence of how far the Republic has strayed.
And the “solution,” we’re being told, is to ignore this:
Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined.
Accordingly, we urge you to: 1) Issue a public statement that the ATF will not take further enforcement action regarding the classification of braced pistols as short-barrel rifles under the NFA; 2) Issue an interpretive rule clarifying that firearms equipped with stabilizing braces do not qualify as short-barreled rifles under the NFA; and 3) Through ongoing litigation, enter into a judicially-enforceable consent agreement, which would 1) permanently enjoin the ATF from attempting to revive the Biden-era Rule through new rulemaking and 2) permanently enjoin the ATF from taking any further enforcement action related to the classification of braced pistols as short-barreled rifles under the NFA.

Must be primaries and midterms coming up…
Sorry, don’t mean to sound so cynical and distrusting. It’s just that I’m cynical and distrusting.
On April 6, the Supreme Court demonstrated once again that the “landmark” Bruen decision isn’t worth the paper it’s written on, and neither are the paper tigers that President Trump appointed to the bench in his previous administration. [More]
Think of one job you’ve ever applied for where you’d have gotten it if you decided to play coy with the hiring managers. While it may be “inappropriate” for a judge to weigh in on a specific case before confirmation, there’s no reason why general principles of understanding should be off-limits.
Peltola had a solid record in support of the Second Amendment, and was the only Democrat endorsed by the NRA in the 2024 campaign cycle. Pro-gun Democrats are kryptonite to the gun control movement, so I can understand Hogg’s reaction at the time. [More]
The National Rifle Association is sponsoring “a multimillion-dollar TV advertising campaign … aimed at messaging beyond gun rights and reaching middle-class mothers, minorities and other Americans ‘who believe our country is off the rails,’” The Washington Times reported Thursday. “The gun lobby’s campaign … uncharacteristically delves into issues far beyond the Second Amendment to explore the IRS scandal, media elitism and security vulnerabilities, with a call to return ‘good guys’ to power.”
“[Americans] care about their Second Amendment freedoms but understand that all freedoms are connected,” NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre said about the ads.
Or when NRA filed a friend of the court brief in an ACLU lawsuit challenging NSA’s “Patriot Act” collection of telephone metadata on First and Fourth Amendment grounds…?
How ’bout when they teamed up with ACLU to fight “campaign finance reform” on First Amendment grounds?
“Single issue” phonies continue to enable this, and not a one of them has the intellectual honesty to take this.
Republican Congressman Troy Nehls said President Donald Trump is ‘almost the second coming’ of Jesus Christ while being interviewed by a CNN reporter on Capitol Hill on Thursday. [More]
Cult-like behavior won’t help us repel the Moloch-worshipping Democrats.
There’s no excuse for the Christ-like poster, anyone who says he was just being a doctor is gaslighting you, and it doesn’t help that the guy he’s “healing” looks like Jeffrey Epstein.
It’s like he’s trying to destroy any political chances for Republicans in general and Constitutional originalists in particular. It’s like that was the plan all along, while he strings devotees along with promises.
“Who else you gonna vote for?” may become the moot point some have always known it to be. Perhaps a better question for Second Amendment advocates is “Who are you going to let disarm you and how committed are you to saying ‘No’?” Because that’s ultimately the power they have over us — and we have over them.
I’ve always tried to present the good and the bad on the guy, both here and at the old place. If that’s enough for anyone reading this to brand me an enemy, all I can say is we must have very different visons of what America is supposed to be and stand for.
UPDATE
And not to use this as an excuse, but as an example of outraged leftist hypocrisy:
Authorities say that Chaudhari denied he voted at first when interviewed but later claimed he “made a mistake” and admitted to voting while also telling investigators he is not a U.S. citizen. [More]
