A Good First Step

“Licenses”…?

Massie has a better idea.

But Trump hates him.

Expect court challenges and being drawn out and unresolved for years.

Illinois Appeals District Court Harrel v. Raoul Ruling

Defendants Kwame Raoul, Attorney General of the State of Illinois, and Brendan F. Kelly, Director of the Illinois State Police (“State Defendants”), hereby appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit from the Court’s order and final judgment dated November 8, 2024, in this case (Doc. 55), as well as three related cases (Barnett, et al. v. Raoul, et al., 3:23-cv209 Doc. 259; Federal Firearms Licensees of Illinois, et al. v. Pritzker, et al., 3:23-cv-215 Doc. 86; Langley, et al. v. Kelly, et al., 3:23-cv-192 Doc. 46). [More]

Of course they did. Tyrants don’t cede power unless there’s a credible “or else” attached to the demand, and besides, it’s not their money.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Term ‘Hostile Invader’ Is

ANCHOR BABIES AWAY: SCOTUS can Fix Illegal Immigration [Watch]

I’d love for this to be the correct interpretation. I fear that the argument will be made that it doesn’t apply because the incursion is not military in nature, and will thus be narrowly defined, like “treason,” to require a beligerrent enemy with whom we are at war.

Just the mentality to sic on the public…

I see the guy lives in Virginia, so it looks like plenty of “stakeholders” could red flag him, assuming that wasn’t a conditon of his mental health leave…

Stop Me If You’ve Heard ‘Refuse to Obey Unlawful Orders’ Before

Trump’s election has also raised questions inside the Pentagon about what would happen if the president issued an unlawful order, particularly if his political appointees inside the department don’t push back. “Troops are compelled by law to disobey unlawful orders,” said another defense official.

Senate Majority Leader Procedural Question

I normally don’t post on weekends but need this info for a possible article and am at a loss in searching for an answer.

Thune, Cornyn, and Scott are all part of the Swamp. How is it they’re the only ones up for vote consideration?

Is it just who declares themself to be a candidate and they were the only ones who did? And is it too late to publicly call for another name?

Links substantiating opinions will be appreciated.

Who DeWine Picks as Vance’s Replacement of Crucial Interest to Gun Owners

For now, there are several good choices for gun owners that DeWine can make, a few problematic ones, and one that’s completely unacceptable, his previous pick Dolan. [More]

Review the candidates and let him know what you think.

I gotta tell ya, I was delighted to see seven comments by the time I noticed this was up and then saw only one was on topic…:-(

Credit Where Due

Today, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) secured a permanent injunction against the State of Illinois’ poorly named Protect Illinois Communities Act. This law violates the Second Amendment and unconstitutionally bans many semi-automatic rifles, standard capacity magazines, and bump stocks, while instituting new registration requirements for gun owners. [More]

And there’s no link for this yet, but it just came in from SAF:

Am I reading these wrong?

We’ve done this before. Let’s not do it any more.

Desperation Looks Like This

Dems at War Over Secret SCOTUS Plot to Oust Sotomayor NOT AGAIN!Having spectacularly failed to get one woman elected to a top job, the Democratic Party is at odds over whether to push another woman out. [More]

This should be blockable if all Republicans stick together and militant Democrats let their feelings trump all.

Set Your Sights Higher Next Time

The clerk said this happened a few times, and the man kept fumbling around with his gun in his pants, until it went off and he shot himself in the butt. [More]

Naturally, he’s someone proven to the system who can’t be trusted with a gun out with a stolen one.

Is the last sentence about police not chasing him down supposed to be a joke becaause he’s in the hospital?

Arizona, Take Off Your Rainbow Shades

Kari Lake’s Senate race and some House races are still not counted. This is outrageous since nearly every other state is done counting. Here is what you can do: Check your ballot status!

Statewide: go to http://my.arizona.vote

Maricopa: go to http://beballotready.vote [More]

Yeah, WTF? What’s the (credible) excuse for this?

If you’re from there, do it. If you know someone from there, tell them.

Welcome the Strangers!

[R]eleased inmates from Venezuelan prisons have been directed to travel to the United States alongside Venezuelan intelligence officers to track down former Venezuelan military members, politicians, and law enforcement officials within the United States and “neutralize” them. [More]

And just how do they propose to get onto this country?

Oh…

OK then, what gun laws can stop them?

The Mandate of Heaven

It is necessary to break the power of the old regime completely, not out of vengeance but a matter of realism. What is required is a clean-up operation comparable to Denazification, or Reconstruction. The nomenklatura cannot be allowed to remain in position. The ballot harvesting machine that subverted the 2020 election must be liquidated, and voting protocols cleaned up around the country. The mass migration machine must be destroyed and the illegal migrants it delivered to America deported. Antifa criminal networks, their financial backers, and their journalists and academic apologists should face RICO investigations. Universities should be purged of party activists, and activist disciplines abolished. Not only in the United States, but across the U.S. Empire, the regime’s political machine must be completely dismantled. [More]

Sorry, Rodney. We tried. They wouldn’t let us.

They still won’t.

Funny… I didn’t see a wooden shoe in the lot.

I note American Jews voted 79% for the party of citizen disarmament that has been self-immolating over Hamas, so it kinda makes my getting all worked up about this problematic.

Filed under “WTF?”

Not exactly making a case for private prisons or for trusting the research…

I wonder if an animaladjusted environmentalcase sabotaged the lab, and in any case, what security deficiencies enabled this to happen.

Hey, I may have uncovered something here:
